For many outside the field of web development, it is not commonly known that there are several different types of web developers that exist in the world. Within the developer world, we literally have dozens of titles which distinguish us from the rest based on our skillset and what we can create with it. Overall, web developers can be summed up into the three general types with each one fulfilling a unique need in the process of creating websites for the whole world to see. Techimpero is committed to supplying the best Web development service in Delhi and also other services which includes website designing, mobile app development, web app development and a lot of designing technologies. We have gathered a professional engineering and sales team to serve global clients.
Before continuing, it is important to note that web development and web design are the two different fields. Web design focuses on designing the visual and look of a website using design software while web development focuses on creating it by writing code (programming) and other development methods.
The Front-End Developer (Front-End Engineer / “Web Developer / Designer”)
This developer is responsible for creating the look, feel, and interactive components of a website. They are often mistaken as the only role in web development as well as confused with the role of a web designer. How text, images, and colors are displayed on a website when you view them on a phone, tablet, or a computer is what the front-end developer creates. Have you ever seen a button change color when you hover over it or a popup appear when you click on something on a page? That is what the front-end developer creates. They make sure that everything you see is organized, aesthetically pleasing, and functional. To accomplish all this, the front-end developer generally writes in (but not limited to) the following programming languages:
HTML
CSS
JavaScript
JQuery
React
AngularJS
The Back-End Developer (the person no one really knows about)
This developer has one of the most crucial roles in web development. They create and maintain what is under the hood to keep your website running and functioning properly. A back-end developer writes what is called the server-side code to make sure data flows back and forth from a website’s front-end (what the user sees and interacts with) to the back-end (the server, database etc.). The best example of this would be an online store. The prices and product images are stored on a database hosted on a server. When it comes time to update the prices or initiate an automated holiday sale, product information and prices are updated on the database which then displays on the website. When you checkout and process a transaction, all that works just because the back-end developer made it so. They write the code that makes all those easy to use functions possible. This developer can program in a variety of programming languages depending on what needs to be done.
Typical programming languages a backend developer writes in include:
Java
PHP
Ruby and Ruby On Rails
C#
MySQL
MongoDB

The Full-Stack Developer (the Superman / Superwoman)
This developer is a unique developer type as they can program and work on both front-end and back-end parts of a website. They can literally create an entire functioning, dynamic website themselves (if they choose) as they understand both the ends of web development. These developers tend to have prowess in coding in multiple programming languages and their knowledge and experience tend to be a mile-wide. Because of this, they generally work well with both the front-end and the back-end developer during the development process. While they understand and can do the job of both front-end and the back-end developers, many full-stack developers typically do not have mastery in either role. Some usually are better at either the front or back-end development. There are full-stack developers that have mastery over both the ends of development but they are rare and hard to come by. The diverse knowledge of a full-stack developer helps speed up the web development process and troubleshoots any problems that may occur on the front or back-end of a site. Typical programming languages a full-stack developer writes in: Some of everything.
