Front vs. Back: The Eternal Illusion

frontend-memes, backend-memes, user-experience-memes, web-development-memes, developer-life-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The user, blissfully unaware, thinks they're interacting with a beautiful frontend while the backend developer lurks behind the scenes making everything actually work. The frontend gets all the praise for being pretty, while the backend carries the entire application on its shoulders. Tale as old as time: users only care about what they can see, not the complex machinery keeping the whole operation from imploding. That backend developer's face says it all - "You're welcome for making this thing functional while the frontend gets all the credit."

Content OK looks like a simple script will do - we can do this in vanilla IS, no problem! No need for a framework... And the code will be cleaner if I add an abstraction layer over the database and if I use API endpoints 1 guess I could document it and out it on Github, maybe it'll help someone out... Hmm, I guess I should make this a bit more object oriented... ..and it can't hurt to separate out the front-end with templates... WHAT'S THIS?? ANOTHER Javascript Framework!? And alreody 1000 stars on Github?? Tell me you didn' I mean... it wasn't on purpose. CommitStrip.com
