I think that’s an interesting thought. My perspective is that many industries will break up into backend/frontend where each part requires a different kind of people and operates on different margins. The backend will be an efficient machine whereas the frontend will be where the cool end customer facing stuff happens. Both will have their value, but operate very differently.
- bartread 8y agoMy experience is the opposite to the point where I'd say developers who describe themselves as "front-end" or "back-end" aren't terribly useful to me. What I need is people who can turn their hand to, and learn anything: i.e., full stack developers. These people tend to be able to add more value because they understand the whole system and can work on any part of it. What I definitely don't need is people with a compartmentalised "not my responsibility" view of the world, or our systems.
