2017 has arrived with all its splendour and glory. Speculations are still going about the latest web technologies that the year would see. Even though a fourth of the year is already gone, the buzz of speculations is yet to settle down. With most of us being online for 90% of our waking hours, the importance of web technologies and trends are not to be taken lightly.

The most commonly heard name in the ‘latest’ list is Artificial Intelligence or AI. Though popular since a few years, their application in day to day technology is seeing a rising trend. If you sign up in The Grid, an AI driven web designing site, you can find the beauty of artificial intelligence. The site creates layouts and designs on your preference with the help of this latest technology. With simplified access of AI tools, their use is all set to increase in coming years.

The giants like Google and Mozilla are already half way through, with APIs designed to help bring the wonders of virtual reality to the web. They are known to show their hand in many applications from real estate tours to newsrooms!

Internet of Things lovingly called IoT is all set to make waves in coming years. While being a challenge as well as a breath of fresh air to technological research, these are highly useful in everyday life, if used well. Connecting non-technological items to a network is going to be a fun show!

Rails 5 a follow up of Rail, though released in the middle of last year is expected to set up foothold this year. Ideal to be the next in-thing in web development, they have features to excite the developers. Another major trendsetter is Angular 5. With new updates in line, they have already changed the face of Google’s front end framework. In other words, JavaScript got redesigned.

Yarn package manager, developed by Facebook, on collaboration with Google, Tilde and Exponent is another latest web technology. Easing update, configuration, installation and uninstallation of modules from their applications, these are said to gain in popularity in the near future. Static website generators contribute another addition in latest web technology. With their speed, ease of handling traffic, security and easy deployment, they are going to be the latest addition to technology.

Web design is all set to witness a revolution. Interfaces that respond to movement, larger and bolder topography and visually rich user interface would make waves in coming years.
