WHAT IS WEB DEVELOPMENT/WHAT DO WEB DEVELOPERS DO?
WEB DEVELOPERS WILL WORK Often for clients that are trying to get their product/service onto the web. The work is typically very project-focused and involves collaborating with a team that helps to coordinate the client’s needs with the end product. The clients could be a tech company, an organization, or a government. The work could involve the front end, the back end, or full stack.
This could be your profession if you like solving logical problems, building useful things, and experimenting with new technologies. Web developers are in high demand, generally have a good work/life balance, and command comfortable salaries. Google your specific location for more details.
Types of Web Developers
Earlier, we mentioned that the work could be in the front end, the back end, or full stack. What exactly are these?
The “Front End” is the stuff you see on the website in your browser, including the presentation of content and the user interface elements like the navigation bar. Front End Developers make use of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and their relevant frameworks to ensure that content is presented effectively and that users have an excellent experience.
The “Back End” refers to the guts of the application, which live on the server. They manipulate data appropriately to make sure the Front End has what it needs. This can become very complicated as things scale. Back End Developers make use of programming languages like Java, Python, and Ruby (among many others) to work with data.
“Full Stack” Developers marry both sides into one. A Full Stack developer can comfortably work with both the front and back ends. This is what we focus on building you up to here.
