This page outlines general web development requirements and best practices for the ProyectoWeb project currently in planning stage.

Project Status

Planning Stage: This project is currently in the planning phase. The complete project specification is documented in: Documentos/Proyecto desarrollo web 2026-10.pdf (9 pages).
The source repository contains:
  • Project specification PDF document (9 pages)
  • Planning documentation
  • No implementation code yet

Requirements Overview

The project requirements will be derived from the comprehensive specification document (Proyecto desarrollo web 2026-10.pdf). These requirements will guide the development process once implementation begins and serve as acceptance criteria for project delivery.

General Web Development Requirements

When development begins, typical web project requirements will include:

Functional Requirements

Functional requirements define what the system should do and how it should behave.
Priority: Typically HighModern web applications often include:
  • User registration and authentication
  • Password management and recovery
  • User profile management
  • Access control and permissions
Best Practices:
  • Implement secure authentication mechanisms
  • Use password hashing (bcrypt, argon2)
  • Validate email addresses
  • Implement session management
Priority: Varies by projectContent management typically involves:
  • Creating and editing content
  • Managing content lifecycle
  • Version control for changes
  • Content organization and categorization
Best Practices:
  • Track changes with timestamps
  • Implement proper authorization
  • Validate input data
  • Consider soft deletes for recovery
Priority: Depends on data volumeSearch functionality should provide:
  • Full-text search capabilities
  • Advanced filtering options
  • Result sorting and pagination
  • User-friendly search interface
Best Practices:
  • Optimize search queries for performance
  • Index searchable fields
  • Handle special characters appropriately
  • Paginate large result sets
Priority: Based on business needsData export features may include:
  • Multiple export formats (CSV, JSON, PDF)
  • Filtered exports
  • Bulk export capabilities
  • Scheduled exports
Best Practices:
  • Maintain data integrity during export
  • Handle large exports asynchronously
  • Provide user feedback
  • Log export activities

Non-Functional Requirements

Non-functional requirements define system qualities and constraints.

Performance Requirements

Response Time

Best Practice Targets:
  • Page load under 3 seconds
  • API response under 1 second
  • Optimize database queries
  • Use caching strategically

Scalability

Design Considerations:
  • Plan for growth
  • Use scalable architecture
  • Consider cloud services

  • Test under load
  • Implement load balancing
  • Scale as needed

Security Requirements

Security must be addressed at all development stages, from initial planning through deployment and maintenance.
1

Authentication

  • Use established authentication protocols

Data Requirements

Data Management Best Practices

Proper data management ensures system reliability and regulatory compliance.
  • Data Integrity: Validate all inputs
  • Data Backup: Plan regular automated backups
  • Data Recovery: Define recovery procedures
  • Data Migration: Plan for data imports/exports
  • Data Archival: Consider long-term data storage

Data Privacy

  • Collect personal data with explicit consent
  • Provide users access to their data
  • Implement data deletion capabilities
  • Enable data portability
  • Maintain transparent privacy policies

Testing Requirements

Unit Testing

  • Test individual components

  • Use test-driven development

Integration Testing

  • Test component interactions
  • Validate API integrations
  • Test database operations
  • Verify service connections

E2E Testing

  • Test critical user flows
  • Perform cross-browser testing
  • Test on multiple devices
  • Validate complete workflows

Deployment Requirements

1

Environment Setup

When development begins, establish:
  • Development environment
  • Staging environment
  • Production environment
  • CI/CD pipeline
2

Deployment Process

Plan for:
  • Automated deployments
