lol.well I have been coding on both back and front end. I can tell you that both have same degree of complexity depending on the actual task that is been performed. back end gets higher pay because of low supply of back end developers. everybody just dey for front end

And why do you think that is?

Karleb:


Give me an example of a full backend you can build in a day.

Even though I believe backend is harder, I'd never say one can build a full front-end in a day.

If it were that easy, programmers wouldn't be getting jobs since guys like you can build it in a day.

Do you know I’ve built more than 30 endpoints in a single day ? If I built it from the scratch, it’ll take a little longer of course.

If you have built middlewares for authorization for instance, I’m sure you wouldn’t want to build another from scratch. There are lot of functionalities you can abstract on back end.

Front end is not just about designing interfaces. You also have to connect to all the endpoints.

For every user authentication api I write, I have to write 5 times more front end codes to bring it to life - css, html and JavaScript. I also have to worry about responsiveness- to make sure it fits on every device and runs on even old outdated browsers.

CSTRR:
A customer will tell the front-dev that they don't like the background-color of a website or the arrangement .

He would have to modify and modify hundreds of codes.

in the meantime, a back-end dev has done his Job and gone to sleep.

Haaaa, brotherly, fear God o. Have you heard of Sass?

chingle5:


Which one is backend capturing the entire business logic...... In fact that your example is actually the reverse u backend developers are actually the shoe shiner and we the frontend developers are the shoemaker coz we create the product while u people just come from nowhere to just come and be updating one yeye database and throwing request from one place to another place base on CRUD in fact u guys are the shoe shiner

Shows you know nothing about backend development...

chingle5:
I still don't understand why backend developers are been paid more than frontend developers even though frontend development is harder than backend development I just don't get it.....

It all depends on

1. Demand and supply

2. Technical depth of the developer

This is a cheap attempt at glorifying front-end at the expense of backend.

If you knew how bootstrap and other similar css framework works you'd know setting up front-end can be a breeze. There are also numerous Javascript frameworks that'll make page interactivity simple. Unless of course you don't know about these.


There is no way you can build a full backend in a day unless you are doing CMS and other plug and play.

Even full front-end are not built in a day.

I think d problem is people who are able to code a 5 page blog usually hurriedly crown themselves as front end devs.

There is nothing easy about FE dev, as you still need to be a FULL fledge programmer in addition to your design skills.

Html
CSS
Sass
JS
React
NPM
Babel
Git
CLi
Angular/vue
Bootstrap/materialize/tailwind css
Node

When u have mastered these skills and you can apply them, come back here n tell me FE is inferior to Backend. You think it's by adding background color

You are missing the point man. It is possible to build a fully functional average back-end application in a day, especially if you have built similar features several times before, but to build the front-end for the backend application will take longer. The average backend is more stable and pretty straight forward

Karleb I sight u.... Please don't show up in my next post abeg

You didn't even add front-end unit testing, integration testing

The first guy said full backend in a day.

You are saying fully functional average backend in a day.

I usually have eye ache when I use gadgets often because of poor eye sight. Do I need to be on the computer/laptop often as a developer?

Lol. Bootstrap? Bootstrap is cool for designing basic responsive web pages. Bootstrap can only do much. If you’ve implement complex custom designs, you’ll agree the 12-column bootstrap grid system can only do much. Have you worked on online gaming platforms? Have you played soccer online ? do you think you’d do that with bootstrap? Have you seen crazy animations and dynamic pages? You think libraries like React and Frameworks like Angular offer out of the box capabilities?


Backend for me is mostly rinse and repeat. If you are good at code modularization, you’ll be able to re-use a lot of backend codes.

I’ve worked on both “ends”. You can’t work in Andela without a full grasp on both technologies

So completely unrelated, if say you want to learn on your own with YouTube, freecodecamp and other resources, which is more easier to grasp. Front end or back end. Just a beginner with ambitions make una no drag me o, instead use the energy to point me in right direction. Thanks in advance.

No Nairaland female commented on or is viewing this thread. Backend is good but frontend makes you quick money. I focus more on frontend.

This thread is a joke.
How's front-end more difficult?
Like with the many libraries and framework available for free? Bootstrap, Javascript libraries, free htm templates, etc. Very funny.

Angelawhite:



I’m a full stack developer and I’ll tell you though I enjoy fronted more, it a bit tougher.

Most backend codes are re-usable across several other projects. You can’t say the same for Front end. User interfaces look different and some UI have crazy designs and effects that you have to implement from scratch


I can write a full bank end application in a single day - but I can’t build a front end with all the pages in a single day

Moreover, it’s a fallacy that backend developers earn higher

You can also build your own resuable frontend css library... Bootstrap, Tailwind etc also removes a lot of work

I'm not saying frontend is a work in the park but backend is more complex and carry more risk if something goes wrong. The higher pay is justified

Mix it up

find what works for you

Because WordPress has made front end a child's play

Not so versatile with Prota structure per se. But I understand the challenge you have. What version of Prota Structure do you have installed?

2018

What about rule 7, common sense

Gotcha, thanks.

Karleb:


I hate this programming dichotomy but only a front end programmer will tell you backed is just CRUD.

Have you ever integrated a payment gateway, have you ever hosted a website on a live server, I'm not talking static websites now.

Have you ever performed a CRON job?

Oga mi, please shift.

Database structure alone covers all of these in complexity.

emetisuccess:
Front end is definately difficult than backend. Not that much in backend, jst fetching, updating of database(mongodb, mysql, etc), creating a different port, and so on.

Somebody lied. If backend is easier then why aren't you doing it? Backend is not just about CRUD, it entails the business logic and all.

Business logic is overrated. At the end of the day, it boils down to writing CRUDs.

2018

There's a 2019 version which is the most recent I can lay my hands on. So what exactly do you want to accomplish. Looks like you installed a trial version and uninstalled it after the time trial expired planning to reinstall it again to get another 14/30 day trial. Not gonna work. When you install software in Windows, some entries are made into somewhere called the Registry. Uninstalling using Windows does not delete the entries made to the registry. You have to use specialised software for a clean uninstall. Since you have already previously uninstalled it I don't know that the crack would work even if you do a clean uninstall. My advice would be to clean your registry, then download the 2019 version with crack and install and crack it.

I get banned if I post links on NL. But if you message me on Telegram I can share direct downloadable and resumable link to download Prota Structure 2019 SP2 and Prota Structure 2018 SP4. Look for @airsay on Telegram.

Hmmm! I'm beginning to think that you're a real niggarr.

Any means to contact you??
