The State of Front-End Dev
From: http://alistapart.com/event/front-end-dev
Marco: Uh yeah, so, final thoughts. I guess for me, it’s kind of acknowledging that the space of front-end development is kind of exploding right now, it’s a really exciting time to kind of be in this space. And I think people should kind of embrace how dynamic it is and how in demand it is, and just really kind of find where you fit, right? There’s really no rules for this—if there’s nothing else you got out of this, there’s no rules for this. Like, the thing that you like to do in the front-end is valuable. Learn it and then go find the people who are going to pay you money to do that, because this is the time.
My confusion about my job title just answered after listening that talk. Like Marco said front-end development is exploding right now. HTML and CSS are absolutely part of it, but Javascript, Ruby, even SEO can be part of it or maybe not.
Front-end developer can be a team which consist of people who good at HTML and CSS, Javascript, Visual Designer etc.
Even though you are not good at Javascript, but HTML and CSS, you are still called front-end developer. I prefer to call them as front-end designer, part of front-end development though. Like me 🙂
