Frontend developers are a special type of computer programmer. They create the visual elements of websites and software applications. They create the visual elements we see on our screens each time we visit a website or use specific software. They are responsible for making sure what any site visitor sees is free from errors and looks the same regardless of whether you’re using a smartphone, tablet, or computer. Some design elements they’re responsible for include images, navigation, and layout.
