Tech Director | Backend, Ops and Technical Communication at North Kingdom | Ex creative coder climbing up (serverless, IAC) and down (operating systems, c) the stack.
Ex creative-coder turned into passionate backender. I've followed a strange path from flash to interactive installations to web frontend to backend / ops. When I started programming I didn't understand how someone could be coding without the output being visual. And now I'm at my happiest when I don't need to even open a browser.
I am backend developer for about 12 years. I love it so much. Thanks to Ruby which keeps me happy all the time.
I am amazed by front end designs and SPA. I keep on collecting great designs and clever CSS hacks but I use them for reference to get it done from frontend designers and developers.
I often refer to frontend people as Wizards, bc I literally feel like they wave their hands and beautiful things suddenly appear on the page. SO much respect for that ability!
YES! I have never been a very visual person. Some people can look at a webpage and lay all the pieces down, I struggle so much with that so the backend came easier to me. Also when I started I felt like the logic flow of the backend and Ruby was easy for me to understand than the frontend.

THIS! It blows my mind what people can do with CSS.
