Front-end vs. back-end

Every application has both a front-end and a back-end.

The front-end is what you see on the browser, and the back-end is what handles the work behind the scenes: a database that stores everything you need, and rules, which connect the information in your database to the way you want it seen on someone's browser.

  • Front-end languages:

    • HTML
    • CSS
    • Javascript

  • Back-end languages:

    • Python
    • Ruby
    • PHP

  • Databases:

    • SQL
    • MySQL
    • Postgres
    • SQLite

Introduction

To create web pages with great design, interactivity, and maintainability, the trinity of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript provides you with a powerful toolset. Each contributor adds a precious piece to the result.

HTML

HTML describes the content of your web pages. Using the Hypertext Markup Language, you can build up the structure of the page without defining its exact visual properties, typography, and layout.

Although you can utilize the style attributes of HTML elements to express appearance, it is a good idea to avoid this technique as mixing content and style in HTML markup would definitely jeopardize the maintainability of your page’s source code.

CSS

Style is where CSS comes into the picture. With Cascading Style Sheets, you can describe the visual attributes of your page, clearly separated from its content. It not only provides you more readable and maintainable code, but also enables you to deal with the design of your web pages as a different role that can be totally disconnected from managing the content.

JavaScript

JavaScript is the secret sauce that empowers your pages with interactivity.

This dynamic programming language provides:

full control over your page, allows changing its content, responding to events, communicating with the server, and much more. In real webpages, you can use JavaScript libraries like jQuery to solve common tasks.
