Software development is the process of designing, creating, testing, and maintaining software applications to meet specific user needs or business objectives. The process is more encompassing than programming, writing code, because it includes conceiving the goal, evaluating feasibility, analyzing requirements, design, testing and release. The process is part of software engineering which also includes organizational management, project management, configuration management and other aspects.
Software development involves many skills and job specializations, including programming, testing, documentation, graphic design, user support, marketing, and fundraising. Common types of tools are compilers, integrated development environments (IDEs), and version control.
