Once the requirements are clear, the team moves on to planning and designing the project. This includes defining the project timeline, assigning tasks, and deciding on the technologies to be used. In this stage, the user interface (UI) and experience (UX) designs are created through wireframes or prototypes to visualize how the software will look and feel.

During the development phase, the actual building of the software or website begins. The development team writes code, integrates the features, and connects databases. This stage involves creating both the front end (what the user sees) and the back end (the behind-the-scenes functionality) of the system.

After development, the software goes through testing to ensure it works correctly. The testing team checks for bugs, security flaws, and other issues by running various tests. This step ensures that the software meets the original requirements and functions smoothly.

Once everything is tested and ready, the software or website is deployed, meaning it is launched and made available to the users. This involves setting up the production environment, making sure the server and hosting are ready, and ensuring that the system works well once live.

After deployment, the work isn’t finished. The team provides ongoing maintenance and support to ensure the software continues to work properly. This includes fixing any bugs that might appear, updating the software to add new features, and responding to user feedback to improve the product over time.
