:How to become a web developer:

With the emergence of the World-Wide Web, it’s


reasonable to say that the internet has become our new
archive. Every day, we come across a plethora of
websites ranging from e-commerce to education, to
entertainment to promotional and informational. But the
person who writes and designs the pages of these
websites is a web developer. Web developers are the
ones who write the source code that makes a website
work. Web development refers broadly to the duties
involved in designing, developing, and managing
websites for intranet or internet hosting. Web design,
web publishing, web development, and database
management are all included.
It is a lot easier and less expensive than you might
think to get the skills needed to be a web developer.
Even if you are working full-time and have no prior
tech expertise, you can start training right now. It does
not demand any prior knowledge in mathematics or any
degree from technical fields. Whether you have an
academic background in science, commerce or
humanities, it does not matter in order to become a
good web developer. But the thing which matters the
most is your logical mind and a sheer sense of
creativeness. Overall, web developers may be divided
into three categories, each of which serves a distinct
purpose in the process of making websites for the entire
world to see:
Front-end Development: What you see when you visit
a website is the result of the efforts of a front-end
developer. The front-end developer is in charge of
designing a website’s look, feel, and interactive
elements. They are frequently misunderstood as the sole
duty in web development, as well as the role of a web
designer. The front-end developer creates how text,
images, and colours appear on a website when viewed
on a mobile phone, tablet, or computer. If we closely
analyze, it would be noticeable how a button’s colour
changes as we hover over it, or how a pop-up appears
when we click on something on a page. The front-end
developer is the one who generates this. They make
certain that what we see is well-organized, attractive,
and functional.

To turn a static website design into a working or


functional site on the web, the front-end developers use
HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and frequently, jQuery. In
addition to these languages or scripts, a front-end
developer should be and need to be familiar with the
frameworks such as Bootstrap and AngularJS, which
ensures and ascertains eye-catching content on any
device, and libraries jQuery and LESS that package
code into a more useful, as well as time-saving layout.
Back-end Development: A back-end developer plays
and performs one of the most significant conducts in
web development. A back-end developer connects the
server to the database and the server to the website.
They design, as well as manage the infrastructure which
allows a website to run and perform effectively. A
back-end developer writes and puts server-side code in
order to ensure that data goes back and forth or
forwards from the front-end (what the user views and
interacts with) towards the back-end (the server,
database etc) of a website. Back-end developers are
more concerned with security and server performance
than with design. They make sure that all of the moving
parts are in sync behind the scenes. PHP, Ruby, Python,
and other server-side languages and scripts are used in
this purpose.

Full-Stack Developer: A full-stack developer is the


kind of developer who can program and work on both
the front-end and back-end of a website. It is also
notable that because they know and comprehend both
the ends of the web development spectrum, they can
truly build an entire functioning, as well as dynamic
website on their own. Full-stack developers are known
for their ability to code in a variety of computer
languages or scripts, as well as their breadth of
expertise and knowledge. As a result, they usually or
generally get along with both front-end and back-end
developers during the process of development. Many
full-stack developers do not have expertise in either
area, despite the fact that they understand and can
accomplish the work of both front-end and back-end
developers. Some people excel at front-end or back-end
development. There are full-stack engineers who are
experts in both ends of the development process, but
they are exceptional, rare and difficult to find. A full-
stack developer’s diversified experience helps speed up
the web development process and troubleshoot any
issues that may arise on the front or back-end of a site.
