Abstract

The article considers the issue of developing an algorithm for assessing the effectiveness of using various technologies for implementing web applications for website design with regard to their complexity and specifics of purpose. It also substantiates the key parameters that affect the efficiency of development and the quality of the final product.

The basis for this assessment was an analysis of the complexity and specific characteristics of the project, requirements for its further modification, budget constraints, and others.

To develop an algorithm for evaluating the effectiveness of web application development technologies, we analysed several existing approaches and their features. Among these approaches to implementation, we considered the following: manual method, use of tool systems, use of frameworks, use of CMS, and use of SaaS platforms. The parameters for evaluating the effectiveness of project implementation were: implementation efficiency, ease of testing, speed of application development, and ability to customise, support, and improve.

As objects for analysis, we selected five web applications for different types of sites and analysed the effectiveness of using selected implementation technologies for each of them, considering the above parameters.

Through the study, we determined the coefficients of the significance of each parameter in the context of their impact on development efficiency. We then proposed an algorithm for choosing a technology platform for the effective implementation of a web application of a specific category.

Based on the research results, a program module was created for a reasonable choice of technology when implementing a specific web application.

As a result of using the module in the practice of developing web projects, we achieved the following goals:

  • increasing the efficiency of web project development;
  • reducing design time due to a reasonable choice of tools for implementation;
  • improving the quality of the final product due to the correct selection of design and implementation tools.
