Web advantages
A running start
-
Network Infrastructure
Developers can take advantage of HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP), Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs), and understanding firewalls set up by network administrators who saw Web traffic as relatively safe.
-
Software
Development tools, server software, and all kinds of infrastructures are already available.
-
Years of training and experience
Information about the Web is widely available - you can find it in thousands of firms, bookstores, colleges, and online.
-
No clear best practices, but shared expectations
Web developers have fought for years over how the Web should work, with no clear consensus on very much. Still, there's lots of useful experience out there.
