By Aayushman Thakulla

Frontend development is all about what users see and interact with—think HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It's the design, layout, and user experience of a website or app.

Backend development is the engine behind the scenes. It handles data, logic, and server-side operations using languages like Python, Node.js, or PHP. Both are essential: frontend for a great user experience, backend for powerful functionality.
