Development
Once all of the designs have been signed off the project moves to the devleopment stage.
This stage begins by setting up the underlying development server, we then build up the initial templates (HTML/CSS), sub pages and any extra apps that are also included in the specification.
As we build the site it is constantly tested against different browswers and a multitude of different devices to try and make sure it looks as good as possible no matter what you are viewing it on.
The site is then uploaded to our hosting servers under a sub domain (e.g. beta.yousite.com) so that the client can see the site and check that it meets what they were expecting. It then moves onto the testing stage.
