Web Development & Computing Use Cases

Discover how Student Web Host Manager (SWHM) supports university web development, backend programming, full stack modules and DevOps fundamentals — with automated hosting, real deployment environments, Azure AD SSO, and teaching block lifecycle management.


Why Web Development & Computing Need Specialist Hosting

Computing departments deliver some of the most technically demanding modules in the university. Students need real hosting environments — not simulations — to practise deployment, server-side scripting, databases, debugging, authentication, and production-style workflows.

SWHM removes all friction by giving every student instant access to a secure hosting account, linked to your academic modules and controlled by teaching block deadlines.

What This Category Covers

SWHM supports the full breadth of computing and digital development courses, including:

  • Web Development (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP)
  • Backend & Database Development (PHP, MySQL, CRUD apps, APIs)
  • Full Stack Development (frontend + backend + DB + deployment)
  • Software Engineering & DevOps (deployments, logs, config)
