I'm brand new to development and am trying to understand the difference between front-end and back-end development.
I think I kinda understand that front-end is what the user sees and back-end is how the information is retrieved, but I imagine there's a bit more to it than that. I would really appreciate hearing others' thoughts and explanations on this.
Analogies and examples would be very welcomed! Thank you all very much. 🙏
