One of the most dynamic roles in the world of web today is that of the front-end developer. Always keeping up with design and code trends, it is the front-end specialist who keeps a website’s experience on the cutting edge.
To understand the role of a web developer, it’s important to understand the overall process and players involved in a website’s development. From the visual look created by a designer to the code structure created by back end developers, it is front-end talent that fuses the two. To help you understand what a font-end developer does, we decided to create an infographic that breaks it all down.
One of the major demands of a front-end developer is staying on top of design and code trends to always present the most relevant, inviting and engaging visual experience and interaction for users. A front-end designer is responsible for combining the strictly visual work of designers with the behind-the-scenes structure created by back-end developers.
With an eye for aesthetics and an understanding of the nuts and bolts that make websites work, he (or she!) is responsible for coding the look of a site. Ultimately, the front-end developer is responsible for creating, testing and implementing the workings of all the visual and interactive elements of a website.
