Frontend Vs Backend Developer
2
Responsibilities of a Frontend Developer
  • The part of the website that the users interact
    with, is called frontend. The visible aspects of
    the website are a part of its frontend. The menu
    on the site, the sliders and the header and
    footer is all controlled by a set of codes using
    Javascript, HTML and CSS.
  • CSS, HTML and Javascript are the three main
    languages that a frontend developer must be
    skilled at. The other important technologies that
    a frontend developer must be familiar with
    include Backbone, Angular JS, Ember JS,
    Foundation and Bootstrap. This ensures that the
    interface of the website looks good, irrespective
    of the device. Besides that, knowledge of jQuery
    and Less is equally important. For dynamic
    loading of pages. the knowledge of AJAX is
    helpful as well.
  • Frontend development involves the development of
    mockups and wireframes of the look and feel of
    the website. A front end developer works along
    with designers and UX specialists in bringing out
    the best experience for the website. The business
    goals also need to be carefully understood, so
    that the website frontend can be developed
    accordingly. As a good frontend developer, one
    must have good visualisation skills to
    understand, what the end result will look like. A
    frontend end developer must add value to the
    experience that the user is going to get, from
    using the platform.

Brief Summary of Frontend
  • To develop all the aspects of the site that are
    visible to the user
  • To work along with design, UX and marketing teams
    to bring out the desired results from the website
  • Ensure that the UX of the website is up to the
    mark

Responsibilities of a Backend Developer
  • All of the data in the platform that requires
    storage, forms the part of the backend of the
    website. The main components of the backend
    include an application, a database and a server.
    The existence of the user facing side of the
    website is dependent on the back-end. This
    technology is built and managed by the backend
    developer.
  • The key languages that a backend developer must
    be proficient in, include PHP, Python, Ruby, Java
    and .NET. Other tools that backend developers
    use, include MySQL, Oracle and SQL. These are
    used to serve the data back to the frontend code.
    Backend developers also need knowledge of
    specific PHP frameworks - some of the common
    being, Zend, Symfony and Cake PHP. Knowledge of
    version control software like CVS , GIT or SVN is
    equally important along with Linux, used for
    development and deployment purposes.
  • Based on these tools and techniques a backend
    developer has to develop a code thats reliable
    and efficient. The backend developer has access
    to other team members to understand the goals of
    the website and come up with effective solutions.

Brief Summary of Backend
  • Writing code pertaining to the data related to
    the backend of the site
  • Knowledge of key backend development frameworks,
    tools and software
  • Understanding the goals of the website and write
    the code in the most efficient manner
  • Here are the average salaries of various types of
    web development.

Choosing The Right Partner
  • A business looking to hire expert frontend as
    well as back end developers, must hire the
    services of an agency like ValueCoders. The
    company provides highly trained and dedicated
    resources for on-time completion of development
    projects. The cost of hiring a dedicated
    developer from ValueCoders ranges from 24000
    30,000/year. This helps business save a lot as
    compared to hiring developers that work In-house.
