JavaScript friendly frameworks like Ruby, React, and Angular help developers build web applications with dynamic front ends and solid back ends. They are some of the leading web development technologies in the world today and are instrumental in building many amazing web apps.

When selecting the right web app development platform for your project, it’s essential to pick one that helps you avoid typical developer stumbling blocks.

Framework expertise. Developers must have extensive knowledge of any software so they can use it to its maximum potential.
User experience. It’s not uncommon for developers to focus too much on coding while ignoring UX & UI. It’s essential to use a platform that strikes the perfect balance between user experience and coding complexity.
Security. Web application cyberattacks rose by 800% in just the first half of 2020. Be sure to choose software that meets current security standards.
Scalability. Any web application software you choose should be able to match a company’s growth without compromising speed and performance.

What Is a Front-End Developer?

Front-end web development, also known as client-side development is the practice of producing HTML, CSS and JavaScript for a website or Web Application so that a user can see and interact with them directly. The challenge associated with front end development is that the tools and techniques used to create the front end of a website change constantly and so the developer needs to constantly be aware of how the field is developing.
The objective of designing a site is to ensure that when the users open up the site they see the information in a format that is easy to read and relevant. This is further complicated by the fact that users now use a large variety of devices with varying screen sizes and resolutions thus forcing the designer to take into consideration these aspects when designing the site. They need to ensure that their site comes up correctly in different browsers (cross-browser), different operating systems (cross-platform) and different devices (cross-device), which requires careful planning on the side of the developer.

Back End Development

WHAT IS BACK END DEVELOPMENT?

Definition: Back end development refers to the server side of an application and everything that communicates between the database and the browser.

Back end Development refers to the server side of development where you are primarily focused on how the site works. Making updates and changes in addition to monitoring functionality of the site will be your primary responsibility. This type of web development usually consists of three parts: a server, an application, and a database. Code written by back end developers is what communicates the database information to the browser. Anything you can’t see easily with the eye such as databases and servers is the work of a back end developer. Back end developer positions are often called programmers or web developers.

BACK END PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES

Many back end developers know front end languages such as HTML and CSS but need to use languages such as Java, PHP, Ruby on Rails, Python, and .Net to get the back end job done. Back end developers are most focused on a site’s responsiveness and speed. These languages are used to create dynamic sites which are different from static sites in that these types of websites store database information. Content on the site is constantly changing and updating. Examples of dynamic sites include Facebook, Twitter, and Google Maps.

Front End and Back End Developer

The choice of development path can also be driven by the career ambition of developers. You should choose front-end development if you have the ambition of becoming one of the following: front-end developer, front-end engineer, web designer, UI/UX designer, or SEO expert.

You should choose back-end development if your ambition is to become one of the following: back-end developer, back-end engineer, DevOps engineer, software engineer, REST API expert, database designer, or WordPress developer.
