What is a web application?
A web application (or web app) is application software that runs on a web browser, unlike software programs that run locally and natively on the operating system (OS) of the device. Web applications are delivered on the World Wide Web to users with an active network connection. (Wikipedia)
Web applications not only need to provide your users with the service you are providing, but they also need to have a good admin interface, that only you can access where you can see and manage your data.
