of course, it's all about design and functional requirements after all, all properties and methodologies have a reason for existing (and coexisting) and a target project where to being applied on.

All front-end stuff is bigger every day and in some ways you need more aknowledgement than doing back end those days; I mean, you can do CRUD APIs applying standard security and good logic but on front you'll need logic too as well as many technologies and frameworks (react, angular, scss, html, node and so), how the turntables haha

Ohw absolutly! Totally agree.

Back in the days frontend was "just" HTML, CSS and a bit of jQuery. Now we moved a lot of those backend logic from the early days to JavaScript. Now frontend developers need more programming skills.

If you say in the current time, I'm a frontend developer you can mean a lot of things. Are you on the "front side" of the frontend (doing HTML, CSS, accesibility etc) or are you on the "back side" of the frontend (doing HTML,CSS, JavaScript, Routing etc).

A great read about that is "The Great Divide"
