Frontend Development Isn't Real Engineering? If I had a dollar for every time I've heard the claim that frontend development isn't "real" engineering, I'd have quite a fortune by now. I'll admit, when I started my career in tech, I stood firmly on the opposing side of this argument, but here’s what I've learnt: The work of a frontend developer extends beyond translation of Figma designs into code. There’s much more to it, from ensuring seamless user experiences to tackling challenges like unit testing, browser compatibility, and performance optimization. Frontend development demands a diverse skill set not limited to paying close attention to detail. 🚀 However, I do see how it rubs you off from understanding the core concepts of software engineering extensively. But it's very "real"; every aspect of software development comes with its own challenges. What truly matters is the dedication, passion, and problem-solving skills that developers bring to the table, regardless of their chosen specialty. So, are FE developers any less than their counterparts in other fields? Absolutely not. My FE devs, what are your thoughts on this? 💭 #FrontendDevelopment #womeninSTEM #SoftwareEngineering #womenintech
