What Does a Front-End Developer Do?
Before describing my work, let me explain what a front-end is. The front-end is the visible part of a website or application, everything that the user sees and interacts with. All those buttons, all those blocks, all that beautiful animation. All the things that catch your eye when you go to a website and think, "Wow! What beautiful slides! What cool pictures pop up!" That's all done by a front-end developer. My main task is to create a user-friendly, understandable and functional website so that it would please both the user and the owner. So what does a front-end developer's job look…
What Does a Back-End Developer Do?
The work of a back-end developer isn't visible to the user, but it's essential for the success of a web application. I can easily prove it with the example of an ordinary car. Figuratively speaking, everything the user sees and uses: the settings of the on-board systems, 2-3 pedals, the steering wheel, the beautiful interior - that's the front-end developer's work. Meanwhile, the back-end is all the components of the car that are invisible to the user: fuel and cooling systems, engine, transmission, ventilation and air…
What Are QA Engineers and Why They Are So Important?
While negative reviews can be helpful to users, they are highly disliked by app owners. Unfortunately, the latter cannot avoid this situation when there is a need to fix some issues that arise.

Before launching an app, it should be thoroughly tested. Luckily, there are superheroes known as Quality Assurance…

When I meet new people, and they learn that I am a UI/UX designer, they often ask a ton of questions. "UI/UX? What do you do at work? What does it look like?" To describe my work, let me start with typical cases that illustrate the importance of my job to business owners. Imagine that customers want to buy an item on a website, but the checkout process is lengthy and complicated, so they abandon the cart. Or they have a question about a product but can't find contact information. Or they want to learn more about the company, but the "About Us" page is in a place they would not expect.…
Customer Responsibilities in a Software Project
"I'm really short on time. Could you make an app for my business without me being involved?" Sometimes, an entrepreneur isn't too keen on regularly discussing matters with developers. They'd prefer it if we could just jot down all their wishes for the upcoming app and give them a call when it's all done. In such instances, our reply is that this undertaking is bound to fall flat. This approach doesn't hold up, and that's the focus of this article. **Why is it important to [engage with customers during app…
