This is why I like frontend development - you get to see the results of your work.
It's satisfying to start with a blank screen or perhaps a times new roman mess, and leave it as something that looks great and works well.
Backend development can sometimes be a tedious death march where all you get at the end of the day/week/sprint is not-an-error or perhaps just wiring up RPCs, or maybe if you are very lucky upgrading to a new point-release of a library with no other visible changes. Don't get me wrong, refactoring and fixing backend bugs can be satisfying, but I often find it is not as genuinely enjoyable as being able to actually see the results of your work.
