A website has a front-end and back-end. Here we are discussing the front-end. The front-end is the pretty and friendly interface that you interact with to use the website. That’s the User Interface.
The front-end is made using HTML, CSS and Javascript. A developer can write the layout in HTML, make it look good using CSS and add actions to it using Javascript. All this was traditionally done with working on each component separately. Here comes a question, with so many screen sizes in the world today how do you manage to code a website that would look pretty on every screen.
Front-end frameworks have production ready components and are responsive (compatible with every screen size)
