Creating Website As a Service using Web Components

Abstract

In today’s fast pace world, technology is changing rapidly and we are working on technologies that seems to be impossible a decade ago. Web applications and web technologies are changing the world rapidly. Web applications has become the most important feature of any business specially to showcase what they are offering and tools to use their products. To meet current business needs, web applications have become quite complex to develop, the number of files has increased and as the application grows it becomes difficult for the developer to maintain the application and as well as test the application. At the same time, we have web applications that are used as a service by various enterprises, these applications are modified according to the need of the customers, which sometime results in building the application again and modifying the app according to the customer needs, this process sometimes leads to regression which increases the delivery time as developers have to find out the root cause of the issue. To solve this issue what if we divide the whole application into components that are capable of functioning independently, we can add or remove the functionality according to our needs and it would be easier for developers to build the application even from scratch. Now, since the application is divided into components we can maintain and test these components independently allowing developers to reduce the time taken in a release cycle. In this paper my aim is to automate the process of creating a website that can be modified according to the user need without making change on the code level and also to automate the whole process using Web Components.
