>>easy money >>zero responsibility this is why i chose frontend the healthy job market is also a plus

But user, can I really make it into webdev if I only have a GED, am a hikki with no connections with people in tech? Ive noticed that most people usually land their first job just by having a friend thats already in tech, or can I eventually luck out by mass applying to every listing I see?
Austin Gutierrez
Python is the best backend can offer.
Levi Wood
having connections is a shortcut, but not even close to necessity >1 learn js and some js framework (angular/react) >2 don't write code like a fucking payet (read "Clean Code") >3 apply that's it
I know enough html and css to know what’s going on when I see it, but learning more than that is soul-crushingly boring compared to behind the scenes stuff >based on usage statistics, they click this the most when it has 15px padding instead of 14px!
Oliver Collins
front end is unironically harder, using those frameworks is pure aids, as is using CSS

>having to learn all this boring stuff >working overtime due to some critical db bug >sweating like a pig before every deployment nah keep those bonus $, frontend monkey salary is decent enough the most stressful situation I will encounter is asking hot ux design chick for some svgs
i wouldn't say it's harder, but it definitely is much more tedious & annoying it's very easy to build something, but it's a pain in the ass to ensure it's compatible with multiple devices & platforms, fucking annoying
Adam Nelson
I used to do full stack at my job. When we rearranged i switched to full time backend. God its so much better. I dont have problems reading front end or doing it but fuck its just bad.
Liam Allen
How though? I enjoy designing shit. How do I get a frontend job where the back end stuff is just "not my responsibility, faggot!"
Alexander Watson
Starting using Tauri for desktop applications
Hudson Stewart
but im a neet.
David Thomas
Backendcel here. Can confirm. My frontend colleagues gets more appreciation and recognition and probably earn more.
William Wood
thank you user, you actually convicted me to switch path. I always thought that front end is for brainless codemonkeys, but now I see it's for Chads who rather spend time fucking UI/UX chicks rather than argue which distro is better
Landon Martinez
Frontend is super fucking annoying to develop. Like the general tools you use are usually hot garbage and many frontend libraries have badly written or even massively out of date documentation.
Angel Long
That's the only real downside to frontend though. It's confy, relatively easy, relatively lucrative, and has lots of job opportunities. It sucks dealing with tedious procedures & tools, but it is what it is. At least the jobs are there.
