Front-end Development: When Creativity and Innovations Collide

Front-end development essentially means creating ways in which users can interact with client scripts embedded in the HTML code of a site. Everything user sees, clicks, uses for data input, or to gather information is a result of front-end development. A user interface development company creates client a software that brings to life the site's design. The browser loads and processes the scripts and then runs them separately from the server. Therefore, this process is equally influenced by both web developer's vision and modern technologies.

Front-end developer is a designer and a programmer all at once, so front-end experts have to be both creatively and technically gifted. Ever wondered, how design concept becomes a functioning site? This is the front-end code in action – the one that breaks the project down into parts, and then provides the information and functionality created by back-end developers.

Overall, they create web applications that are best suited for desktop functionality.

They focus their attention on the user interface, and how smooth, intuitive, and natural depends entirely on technologies web developers choose.

Front-end development doesn't mean just create the layouts. Staff must have expert knowledge of JavaScript, understand how frameworks and libraries work, and actively use them, know what's going on on the server side. The developer doesn't get scared of preprocessors and LESS, SASS, GRUNT, and GULP, works with DOM, API, SVG-objects, AJAX и CORS, puts together SQL queries and analyses data. This is a combination of different skills to which we should also add the understanding of UI/UX, adaptive web design, cross-browser and cross-platform compatibility, and sometimes even mobile app development basics.

Front-end development expert has to work with version control systems (Git, GitHub, CVS, etc.), use graphics editors, play around with templates and layouts for different CMSs.

What is a Front-End Development?

In business, a functional and thoughtfully organized site is necessary to attract customers and keep them interested. The concept of front-end web development is crucial here. Front-end web development (which is sometimes called User Interface development) is the practice of converting data to a graphical interface, through the use of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, so that users can view and interact with that data. The main problem with user interfaces is that there are several tools and methods that can be used for front-end development, so you have to follow the latest trends in the field. Every website consists of multiple layers: structures, data, design, content, and functionality. With a combination of layout languages, design, user scenarios, and frameworks, a front-end developer creates an environment for everything that the user sees and interacts with: content, layout, etc. When hiring a front-end development company, check if it has a broad perspective on how the web interface works, what are the developers' primary duties, and how can team members contribute to your project.

Front-end developer has to have several highly specific characteristics:

Excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to work in a team. In the case of front-end development, it's so important (no less so than an extensive JavaScript knowledge) that it needs to be repeated.

A constant desire to grow. No knowledge or skill (including JavaScript) will ever be enough to keep you going for even just one year. We continuously explore the newest trends in our field to provide our clients with the most relevant and reasonable solutions.

Creative thinking and willingness to look at things from a different angle. Front-end developer is, in many ways, an artist, so it's essential to add the appropriate elements into your work.

I heard of the Amoniac development team from another Finnish company and their feedback was positive. I reached out to Amoniac, and our communication went very smoothly. So, I preferred them to several Finnish developers I was considering. The task I’ve placed before Amoniac was automatization of our content marketing platform. Since I’ve never faced any development process before Amoniac’s experience in that field turned very helpful. I appreciate their responsiveness and speed of delivery. I see the result and like it. Guys definitely deserve to be recommended.
