To achieve this goal, the work within the theoretical section discusses the basic theory of credit banking products, approval processes and the possibilities of web application architectures. In the following part, the work focuses on an analysis of the developed application, a definition of its specification, database structure and the design of individual screens. Chapters dealing with the creation of the application itself, which is the main output of this thesis follow this analytical part of the development. Finally, the possibilities of future development of the application are considered.
