Intro
Hello, guys in this blog post I will show you web development VS Android development. You know there are many types of programmers and developers right now and the number of programming languages increases day by day so in this situation, it is very difficult to choose the best career option. I will give you some tips and tricks to learn programming fast and the best career option for you.
Which is the Better Career to Choice?
Web development and Android development are two of the fastest-growing career areas for developers. Both sectors require different skills, serve different markets, and, most importantly, have diverse uses. When choosing, you should compare them based on the frameworks required for the development steps in learning web development and Android development, difficulty, career opportunities, salaries, and future trends in Android and web development.
This article discusses and compares web development and Android development in terms of all the necessary parameters to help you choose the career option that’s right for you.
Difference between web development and Android development:
web development:
Web development involves programming, designing, and running web applications and websites. A competent web developer is expected to design and develop user-friendly websites that are easy to navigate. Programming languages required for web development include HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Web development can be further divided into three categories.
Front-end web development:
This is about website design. Defining the appearance of the website, inserting content, and various navigations.
Backend web development:
It’s all about the database and server-side programming. It manages all the input data, processes the data, and displays the output to the user.
Full-stack web development:
It is a combination of front-end and back-end development. A full-stack developer is responsible for designing the website and maintaining and processing the data entered.
Android Development:
Android development including mobile application design. Now the developer has to create an application for her android device. Generally speaking, the most popular languages used for Android development are Java and Kotlin.
Steps to learning: Web development and Android development.
Web development:
Step 1: Choose your area of interest from front-end and back-end development.
Step 2: Front-end developers need to acquire the necessary skills.
Step 3: First you need to learn HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. These are the basic languages in web development.
Step 4: How JavaScript fetches and responds to queries and adds interactive features such as audio, video, and images. Responsive design (bootstrap) that helps websites adapt to devices.
Step 5: You should also use a version control system such as Git or GitHub. Because you can track changes and revert to previous versions.

Android development:
Android developer specializes in developing applications for the market and his android apps.
Step 1: Learn the basics of Android development, including:
- Java SDK.
- Knowledge of any programming language between Java/Kotlin.
- Android UI themes.
Step 2: Learn advanced Android development skills, including:
- Knowledge of Git and REST API.
- Knowledge of database systems.
- Design applications for UI, cloud messaging APIs, and continuous integration.
Front-end web development is a little easier than his back-end web development. This is because the backend needs to store and maintain the data as well as keep track of the processed data. All web development is relatively easier than Android development, but it depends a lot on the project you’re building. For example, developing a web page using HTML and CSS can be considered a simpler task than creating a simple Android application.
Career opportunities
The global mobile application development market is expected to grow by 14 GR during the forecast period (2016-2022). Similarly, job opportunities for web developers are projected to grow by 25-27% by 2024. Therefore, the labor market for both technologies is constantly growing. However, web development is relatively easier to learn than Android development for him, so the competition for web developers is very fierce.
An Android developer, on the other hand, is in slightly higher demand as he is outnumbered compared to his web developer. A developer skilled in both Android and web development is in the highest demand overall as it opens up more career opportunities in both development areas.
Learning curve:
Both web development and Android development offer great and impressive learning skills. Web development offers knowledge of different languages like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, frameworks like React-JS, Angular-JS, and server-side frameworks like Node-JS. In mobile app development, you can learn both iOS app development and Android app development. Here you will have the opportunity to learn and implement programming languages such as Java, and Kotlin. Git and Git-Hub and learning about database management systems are common requirements for any kind of software development process.
Salary and future promotion:
Salary is one of the most commonly seen considerations when determining career choices. So her web developer salary in Pakistan varies from 5 LPA to 27 LPA depending on his development experience and expertise. An Android developer’s salary is also somewhere in the same region and her skilled iOS developer is lower compared to her Android developer so it’s a bit higher for an iOS developer.
