How to design and develop?

I know that it depends on many things such as knowledge, preference, purpose, resources, etc... but I'm curious how different developers (level of expertise) actually prefer or implement their Web sites. I decided to make this post after two rounds of various forums about 1. Templates and PHP, and 2. Development of the back-end.

1. How do you generally approach a project?-wired, Freehand (because it is), model PSD, etc. - think - you have a specific 'methodology' or procedure?

2. What are the 2-3 of your main resources / sites / apps etc you are using (and what for?)

More precisely: what you use (and how) to get a Web site? (I know once again that depends on a variety of things, but in general..) * also if you want to comment on your expertise or maybe useful level.

Would you rather (benefits / drawbacks of :)) What advice would you give to the topic below?

  • Built your own Script HTML/CSS/base site you have mostly (if not completely). (More control and original, but more difficult / tedious for beginners)

  • HTML Temlplate (change the HTML and CSS code) - type of not setting (quick and easy, but generally poor quality, obsolete?)- but some may servde as a good starting point.

  • WordPress (and others such as Drupal, Joomla) (pretty quick and easy access to wring a quality WP Theme with possibility for a large number of features - search, databases, forms, etc. (otherwise could have trouble with features without good knowledge og PHP and MYSQL, maybe others?) - but the kind of "bypass" real HTML design?)

  • Types of frames such as Foundation, Bootstrap, skeleton

  • A combination or hybrid methods? - or any other method, I forgot?

Thank you very much for any idea that you can offer, hopeully, this will lead to a lively discussion. -.

Not quite.   Don't forget there are client-side and server-side apps applications.

AJAX is client, which means that the browser does all the heavy lifting.  If the end user has JavaScript disabled, nothing happens.

PHP MySql & are server-side.  It doesn't matter what browser settings has the end user.  The bulk of the work is done by the web server.

XML is NOT a database on the server side.  It is just a file text used by the browser.  Useful for storage of light data, but certainly not to a large scale CMS or blog for example.

Apache is an application web server that is commonly found on Linux servers.  It has nothing to do with AJAX.
