| - | A **Web Application (Web App)** is application software that runs on a web server, unlike computer-based software programs that are run locally on the operating system (OS) of the device. Web applications are accessed by the user through a web browser with an active network connection. These applications are programmed using a [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:c:client-server]] modeled structure—the user ("[[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:c:client]]") is provided services through an off-site [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:s:server]] that is hosted by a third-party. Examples of commonly-used web applications include: web-mail, online retail sales, online banking, and online auctions. | + | A **Web Application (Web App)** is [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:a:application|application]] software that runs on a web [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:s:server|server]], unlike computer-based software programs that are run locally on the [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:o:os]] of the device.
