What is the frontend of a web application?
Options
- The part that runs on a server and stores data
- The part users see and use in a browser or app (Correct option)
- The marketing team of the company that builds it
- The database that stores the application data
Answer
The part users see and interact with in their browser or phone: pages, buttons, forms
Why
A web application has two sides.
The frontend (also called the client side) is everything that runs on the user's device: layout, colors, buttons, forms, and the code that reacts when you click.
The backend is the other side. It runs on a server that you never see directly.
A frontend developer builds what people see and touch.
Remember
Frontend = what the user sees and touches.
