Read about Web Design Process article below and
write what you think about it (at least 150 words)

and-worflow-process-comparison/
What do I think about it?
To start off, I find that this link is a very useful link. It describes to you in detail the process of designing a web.
From reading the information given, I have understood that designing a web can be painstaking.
But with hardwork comes great results. The steps in which they listed down are so detailed I went blind for a moment reading it.
I think i went blind straight away upon seeing the web page. But a miracle happened and I could see again.
Anyway, back to the topic, now I know that designing a web is not just for the sake of designing a web.
Designing a web requires lots of patience, creativity and hard work.
It also requires a person to have a good understanding and knowledge about the essence and roots of web designing.
For me, I do not really understand all this web stuff but apparently, I am starting to do so. After reading about the process of
web design, I feel inspired and determined to learn more about web designing and it’s process. Yes it’s going to be tedious,
brain damaging, confusing and chances of eye cataract will increase but yeah, I guess it’s worth it.
This should be 150 words.
