What is "proper software development"?

Front-end dev moves fast because the web moves fast. It's gone from simple documents to complex application delivery in a decade. Backend dev is perfectly complicated with build toolchains and deployment pipelines so why is the frontside somehow not allowed to evolve? None of this is really required and nobody is forcing you to keep up.
