Creating a website includes both the front-end and the back-end development. The separation concern in the software engineering represents front-end development that allows the presentation of any website to be visible to the client-server. The front-end development enables the users to see and interact with it.

The major focus of a website is to create a better user experience where the users can see and easily access and interact with the website. The front-end website development provides exactly this experience. For a business striving to gain visibility and popularity online, front-end development plays an essential role as it not only contributes to the appearance of the site, but also creates a recognition and thus, a market that showcases your business in front of the potential customers.

In many custom website development companies, the job roles of a front-end developer and a back-end developer are different. What exactly a front-end developer does is to manage and optimize the user experience by proper coding and maintenance of the website’s appearance, look & feel and presentation. With the optimal utilization of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, the front-end developers develop a visual bit that produces the client-side website or web application that involves User Interface or UI, animations & other visual contents.

The front-end development includes certain tools & techniques that are not so stable. These tools change constantly and enhance the field almost every year.

Why we need front-end development?

Any site’s main objective is to allure and attract the attention of the users that they can easily access. Front-end development allows the viewers to get that experience by developing the website in a format that is easily reachable, accessible and easy to read and check on. But nowadays, most of the websites are accessed through the smartphones, which make the development a little complicated as the developers have to utilize tools that produce cross-platform, cross-device and cross-browser websites with interchangeable screen resolutions that can be accessed from any media.

What does a front-end developer do?

To become a front-end developer, you need not allow your talent to overflow, but certain techniques that you should acquire may brush up your skills. Apart from the core elements of front-end development, i.e. HTML, CSS and client-side scripts like JavaScript, some crossover knowledge and interdisciplinary skills like database design, back-end development, and visual design are also good for a front-end developer with a good knowledge of Java, PHP, SQL, Ruby and.NET framework.

What job role a front-end developer plays?
