5 Steps of Software Development

This process of software development will lead to excellent results for your clients as there is a large emphasis on communication in the process. If you are transparent with your clients and talk to them about what exactly they want to be worked on, your clients will be even happier with the end result. If your clients know what to expect and by what date, they will be more pleased with the results rather than if they were simply surprised with the results. 

1.Planning

Work alongside your customers to build out a project plan. Through phone calls and meetings, you can work together to come up with a scope and use it to build out the complete project.

2. Wireframing

Next, have your wireframing team create placements of all the objects on each individual page. In this stage, you should be coming to final agreements about what will be put on each page and how the user will access the content on these pages. 

3. Design

After the wireframes have been locked for all the pages, it’s design time. This is where the design team will take over to build the final looks of the application. The app will start to really come to life in this step in a more visual way than before. You will be presented with clickable versions of the app and be able to experience it from a user point of view before the coding occurs.

4. Code

This step will make sure the app is actually functional. This step will also be broken down into further steps as there are a variety of features involved in this particular step. Your customers will be able to regularly review the progress and give their feedback as needed. 

5. Deployment 

The final step is for the application to be approved by internal project management, and most importantly the client themselves. Upon doing so, the app is ready to deploy the code to its final destination and the host of the project code is decided. 

Conclusion

Software development can be a complicated and long process which is why it is very important to keep your client involved in the process and ensuring they are agreeing with the decisions you and your team are making.
