Front-End interfaces can be as complex (or more complex) than Back-End/infra/analytics/etc... At the end of the day, it is all about data and the front-end needs to maintain state. If your interface is complex, your state will also be complex.
- wiseowise 2y agoTheoretically - yes, practically, on average, any of the things you’ve listed is far, far, far more complex than your average frontend that is basically glue between “real” logic and user.
- csomar 2y agoIf you are doing CRUD simple data apps, I don’t get why your backend will be complicated. Sure the industry has complicated stuff (aws & friends) for complexity sake but that doesn’t mean you have to go down that rabbit hole. Front-End is complex which is why we have 36362 libraries to solve the same problem and still move user interfaces sucks.
- gopher_space 2y agoI'm not a fan of the "front vs back" dichotomy. Chrome is just another box as far as my responsibilities and goals are concerned, but it always feels like there's a mental handoff switching to this one context.
