"Always add a backend verification, and prevent stuff when displaying public/user inputs !"
YELL THAT FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK.

I've gotten into arguments with BE devs who think since I'm doing regex on the FE you don't need it on the back. squints eyes Then remind them you can bypass FE things if your setup doesn't account that or if there's a Man In The Middle attack, how do you safeguard the BE. I tend to remind them that the FE should be dumb as rocks with some nice bells and whistles.

--- But that last one is more of my opinion shrug
