Web pages are a confusing and complex system to understand so Treehouse wanted to design an app to help people better understand how it works.
The How The Web Works app is created to better explain the process of websites. It starts with the user sitting down at the computer and goes through the process of designing the web page. Associating the web with how a restaurant functions is used for comparison and better explanation.
Simple illustrations were used to illustrate the metaphor between the internet and a restaurant. The process of sitting down at a table to order a meal is compared to sitting down at a computer to visit a website.
It discusses the users part, the web designers part and the web developers part. The interactivity of the app makes learning about the internet fun.
