Understanding the difference between a Designer and a Developer.

Most people will use those words interchangeably. Design activity is usually related to graphic design, so a designer will mainly take care of the visual side.

Designer- Usually, designers are responsible for the design of the visual layout. Excellent designers are good at the using of a variety of concepts, such as color collocation, typesetting, spatial relations and user experience.

Through the use of graphic design software and prototyping tools, designers could create the initial version of a website. Then the completed design will pass to web developers for coding.

Job descriptions- Responsible for the overall performance style positioning of the website and to provide an overall visual perception of users;

Responsible for the prototyping design;

Carry out the graphic design of the product catalog;

Carry out various activities of advertising design;

Assist developers in page design and other work.

Developers- They are generally considered as a group of people who use the left brain to develop the coding of products. Under normal circumstances, Developers get the design of the page from the Designer and then use front-end development technology to encode these pages. They do not really care if the page looks good or not, but they care about the clean code very much. Outstanding developers are always paying more attention to details and focusing on each of them.

Conclusion- The main difference between graphic designers and web designers is the medium. Individuals in the Graphic Design field often have more freedom because they are not restricted by programming, resolution or speed. Web Design professionals have to balance good design with speed and efficiency for the web. There are some professionals out there that can do both of these positions as one, but it is rare that they are masterful since they tend to have more strengths in one or the other.
