Maybe.

I think front end development can get away from you easy because you'll usually be working with a framework and your own Javascript code as well as HTML and CSS. The trick is to find some kind of organizational method so that you won't end up in a messy train wreck of code.

The biggest problem I've seen is maintaining good separation of concerns and single responsibility. There is a temptation to move code from the back end to the front end or to blend HTML and Javascript elements that shouldn't be blended. It's easy to fall into this trap with certain frameworks.
