Frontend, Backend or Full-stack, Who is Who?

A Frontend takes care of the composition, design and interactivity using HTML, CSS and JavaScript. The Frontend developer takes an idea and makes it a reality. What you see and what you use, such as the visual aspect of the website, the drop-down menus and the text, are created by the Frontend developer, who writes a series of programs to give structure, shape and interactivity to these elements. These programs are then run through a browser.

The Backend developer takes care of what is not seen, that is, where the data is stored. Without data there is no Frontend. The Backend consists of the server that hosts the web, an application to run it and a database. The Backend developer uses computer programs to ensure that the server, application and database have regular joint performance. In addition, it analyzes what the company needs and provides efficient programming solutions. To do this amazing job, use a series of server-side languages, such as PHP, Ruby, Python and Java.

If you are interested in both Frontend and Backend, you should consider becoming a Full-stack developer. The Full-stack developer is in charge of both the Frontend and the Backend, and needs to know how the web works at all levels to determine how the client part and the server part will be coordinated. To achieve this level of experience it takes more time, of course, since there is more to learn.
