Sounds like you are confirming that there was a time before the split, where it was more common for single person to run front-end and back-end, makes sense! I remember writing PHP at some point and running my own server and it wouldn't have crossed my mind to split the back-end work with someone else. I mean, at times a colleague would do the database, etc. so there was definitely specialization even back then, but it wasn't an explicit front-end vs back-end since we all had the skills to mess around with both.
However, I'm more interested to reconstruct how/when we started splitting into front-end / back-end roles explicitly. Any thoughts there?
