> What I see is the problem that people think that "Frontend development is easier than backend development". I hate that statement so much. Even had some serious arguments with "back-end developers" who were constantly mocking HTML/CSS/JS. Turned out that when pushed to do it, they just couldn't do anything and had to ask for help. Writing proper reusable HTML/JS isn't easy, it also requires thinking on how to structure and split up things. Especially when you throw some CSS into it. |

I can assure you those developers mocking frontend devs can't even do backend if taken outside their big ass framework (django, rails, symfony,etc etc), because they believe everyhing is as easy as those frameworks put it to them. Somebody that had to work outside of that where you have to take many decisions and make tons of trade offs and find how to organize code and manage dependencies, etc will understand better how difficult frontend is. True we sometimes overcomplicate things more than needed (redux, rxjs, etc...) but even when we do not, this is still freakin difficult to get right.
