What is Software Development?

Software development (also known as Application Development; Software Design, Designing Software, Software Engineering, Software Application Development, Enterprise Application Development, and Platform Development) is the development of a software product in a planned and structured process.
The term software development is often used to refer to the activity of computer programming which is the process of writing and maintaining the source code, whereas the broader sense of the term includes all that is involved between the conceptions of the desired software through to the final manifestation of the software. Therefore, software development may include research, new development, modification, reuse, re-engineering, maintenance, or any other activities that result in software products. For larger software systems, usually developed by a team of people, some form of process is typically followed to guide the stages of production of the software.
software can be produced for a variety of purposes - the three most common purposes are to meet specific needs, to meet a perceived need of some set of potential users.
