It makes a lot of sense to devide front-end and back-end. Javascript is shared but it is just a part of the stack, while there are a lot of specific frameworks and libraries for one or the other that makes it really difficult to share code. Also in general you can expect back and front to be separate projects with their own best practices. At the same time, you end up doing quite different tasks that provokes that people naturally want to stick to their favorite one instead of trying to work on both of them
