Front End Software Development Vs. Back End Software Development
Hi everyone, welcome back. Today we’re going to go over front-end software development and back-end software development. By the end of this article, you’ll have at minimum, a basic understanding of front-end software development and back-end software development. Let’s get started by going over what software development is.
Software Development
Software development is a scientific field in which software is created, typically to solve problems or to make life easier. When you think of software development, you might strictly think of coding or programming, but there are a few other big components when it comes to development such as testing and designing. Software development also entails adding new features and maintaining projects.
Types of Software Development
There are various software development positions and front-end development and back-end development apply to many of them. For instance, in web development, there can be front-end web developers and back-end web developers. But for a position such as database management, that employee would be on the back-end side of development. There are positions that are strictly front-end or back-end.
