What is the back end? Who is the backend developer as a specialist? For easy understanding, let’s explain it in simple examples. Imagine that you have got a car. Or don’t imagine, you really have it, just look at it. All you can see by your eyes, its exterior, interier, color, degish, buttons inside – all this is the front end of your car. But also there is a huge function inside it, there is an engine there, you don’t see it at first sight, but it makes important functions, it helps your car to move. Every button near the dashboard makes its own work, and has its own purpose. You don’t see how the process in the engine is happening, you don’t see how buttons work, but you feel it and you know that they are the important parts of your car’s life. All that you can`t see but you know that it also makes a significant process – is the back end. And now imagine all this work not on your car but on the web-site or application. There are many operations which you don’t see by your own eyes but they are making the web-site, web-resource works! This is the response of the back end developer.
Most of the back end specialists work with a big quantity of datas: databases, servers, making all processes working correctly. Such specialists are also called programmers. It is a very responsible job, all even little functions depend on the programmer`s knowledge. That’s why this part of people have a worthy salary, which is bigger than most of the salaries of simple jobs.The average programmer`s salary in NY city can vary from 90-120k$ per year. It is an excellent level. Back end should know a programming language or even several ones. For example Java, PHP or modern ones such as Python. If you want to create your own project but you are not a professional you can appeal to developers to get your project done.
Also, there are such specialists as full stack specialists. It means they can manage both: front and end development. But don`t be in a big hurry if you want to hire one specialist in spite of two. Or you want to become one by yourself. It should be understandable that two in one specialists should have two times larger knowledge and will cost a lot even two times more. Talking about studying courses, it is also mentioned that a person cannot become a high specialist at once, especially in two areas. The front and the back end are two different areas not in vain, so the solution should be deliberate.
