I think i'll stick to back-end

    As a frontender 🥲 I feel your pains

    I don’t know. I love frontend development.
    But not web frontend. That’s hell.

    I hear you. I am a former mobile/desktop application developer, and when I moved to doing full-stack, I got very frustrated. It's taken me about a year to try to wrap my head around a lot of the front-end concepts. I am still not very good, but I can make stuff that works. If I had to be a full-time front-end developer, I'd shoot myself though.

    I think part of is JavaScript's ridiculous syntax and behavior (hell even TypeScript sucks compared to something like C#), and part of it is the framework concepts.

    I like web frontends. Backend and desktop frontends and not mine.

    As a backend dev, I have managed to like react.

    Things like Crank.js might actually make me love the frontend.

    Find the shit that works for you bro. It can be pretty fun to create UIs.

    Except CSS and stuff. That will always suck. Tailwind is all I can handle.
