Front End Development Is Development
- zer00eyz 11y agoI am NOT a front end guy, at all, period. I just don't have the patience for pushing pixels and dealing with browsers. I do however respect what front end guys are doing, and how they are getting it done. We have gotten to the point where the browser can be "just another client" on par with android or IOS (and no one is saying that isn't development). If you go back in time 10 or 15 years, the "web team" threw code over the fence at the operations team, and we all prayed everything worked. The DevOps concept has changed that relationship for the better, but we haven't done the same for the emerging relationship between the front end and the back.
- michaelbuddy 11y agoI liked the one comment "front end dev is hard because we make it hard" that's true. We decide to push things towards some attempt at originality, sometimes with the flow of usability and familiarity, sometimes against it. But we suffer the complexity because we choose to get on board with it.
