Whether or not frontend developers do a lot of CSS depends on the skills of the team. Companies prefer to hire candidates with design knowledge and coding knowledge, but a lot of the time those end up being separate roles. I'm a frontend developer and I write a lot of CSS.
What the author calls a "UI Designer", I would call a "UI Developer".
- enraged_camel 11y agoTo me, a UI Designer is someone who is mostly concerned with look & feel and aesthetics, whereas a UI Developer is concerned with behavior and interactions. The former focuses on CSS, colors and graphics whereas the latter focuses on JavaScript. There is obviously overlap but the two roles tend to be very distinct.
