The five components of Web Development

Interaction

As you're no doubt aware Interaction refers to anything that requires some action from the visitor to our site, such as clicking on a link or filling out a form, as a way to, or the next step toward, reaching some goal.

Interaction design goes beyond visual design, because we now expect visitors to be active participants, not just passive observers.

A further list of the tools used in developing interaction within a website can be made. This list is just a small example of interaction components we may consider in building our web site.
