Summary:In a developing method, a developer is supplied onto a resist film provided on a substrate, made of a resist and having an upper surface on which design patterns having different mask opening ratios are exposed and a development reaction is caused to proceed on the resist film with the supplied developer. After the development, the substrate is rotated so that the developer and the resist dissolved in the developer are removed. Then, a rinsing solution is supplied onto the resist film subjected to development and the substrate is rotated, thereby washing out the developer and the resist dissolved in the developer. The rotation speed of the substrate in removing the developer is a half or less of the rotation speed of the substrate in the rinsing step of washing out the resist.
