''Draft of new material:''
Among Web designers, the term ''Web design'' is sometimes used as a [[synonym]] for ''Web development''. However, a stricter interpretation of these terms would distinguish them, as follows: [[design]] is a [[planning]] activity, which is only one [[wiktionary:component|component]] of an [[engineering]] process. Consider the analogy of civil or mechanical engineering. The person who designs a bridge, or a house, or a car, is only one part of the team responsible for producing the final result. For Web development, a similar distinction can be made. However, this distinction tends to blurred in the software development arena, because it is common for developers to participate in (and even be responsible for) many design decisions.
