All About Backend Development

Hello Everyone

You might have heard these terms while exploring the tech domain fields, most of you might even know what Backend is. For those who don’t know don’t worry I’ll explain

Backend Development

Backend or Backend development is like the vehicle’s engine which is usually not seen by the driver and it is responsible for handling all the functionality. The backend is the server side of the website that the user never sees — a server, an application, and a database. So actions taken by the user are analyzed, fetched, and delivered back by the backend through the codes written. The person who develops and writes those codes are known as Back End Developer. The major work of a back-end developer includes linking every aspect of the front end together and with the databases of the server. Usually, back-end developers have to be less creative as they have to focus entirely on functionality and accuracy.

Now as a programmer we have 1 thing in mind how much money we can earn if we become a back-end developer, according to some surveys by some organizations, the average back-end developer makes a yearly salary of $115,600, and it might vary depending on the needs of front-end developer in the industry
