Week-13

Hello, blog (mood-status: relax and focus), writing this blog after coming home from a work trip and finishing it the last week of classes, studying on exams, and submitting assignments. But anyway, on writing about this week-13. I am writing this as my final blog for the year 2021. I decided to go on the Syllabus once again to look at the course topics. Then I choose the subject of the Framework.


A framework is a platform that provides a foundation for developing software applications. It uses shared resources (libraries, image files, and reference documents) puts them together in one package. The resources can modify that package to suit the project’s specific needs. With a framework, the developer can add or replace features to give new functionality to the application. A working program that Framework can selectively modify by adding code.


What are the different types of frameworks?

The programming languages that many frameworks available from each use to solve different problems that come up in software development for Many industries can use it.

 

Back-End Web Frameworks

Back-end web frameworks are the multiple used programming frameworks. Web frameworks help developers in making web applications and active websites. These frameworks completely changed how web development is done, speeding up the entire software development process by automating everyday tasks for web developers, like providing database access, session management, and page templates. Instead of building websites using HTML, JavaScript, and CSS, back-end frameworks use programming languages to interact with a database to generate content. The work is hosted on a server, consequently the back-end portion.


Front-End Frameworks

Back-end frameworks are loaded on a server and executed in a user’s browser. It allows web developers to design what the users see on the website, manage requests, define file structures, and style its components. As Framework, It gives web developers a base to develop while controlling the final output. 


Why should you use a framework?

Frameworks help reduce time wasted in developing software. It provides a general working system that the user set for a specific application by extending the code. All the lower-level details have been added already. Frameworks allow the developer to save more time to write code specific to the project, not dealing with the Framework’s workaday, redundant functions. Also, It made the code clean and easily adjustable by following the coding convention of the Framework. Finally, frameworks help develop the project quickly, reducing programming time and costs.

The Difference Between Frontend and Backend

Christian Shadis

Over the past month, my Software Construction, Architecture, and Design course has shifted gears into a sort of crash-course for full-stack web development, as I mentioned in the last blog post. We have focused primarily on the backend, creating RESTapi endpoints in the api.yaml file, along with implementing those endpoints in Javascript. In the final two weeks of class, we are transitioning into implementing a front end using Vue.js. In the process of switching contexts, my understanding of the difference between a frontend and backend became a bit obfuscated.

In Frontend vs Backend, Maximilian Schwarzmüller first declares that the common refrain that each web app is built from a frontend and a backend. He then begins to describe the differences between them. In short, the difference between the frontend and backend of a web app is that the frontend refers to the content displayed in the browser, while the backend refers to the portion of the program which runs on a server. He gives the helpful example of Amazon – it consists of a frontend (the catalog, shopping cart, and other visual elements of the webpage) and a backend (all data/database management). He is careful to specify that the difference does not lie only in where data is stored, because there are non-database aspects of a backend as well, such as file system interaction or input validation. He also lists several skills and programming languages that a programmer may need in order to build the frontend (HTML, CSS,  Javascript, Vue.js / React.js / Angular) and the backend (Node.js, PHP, Python).

One area of confusion for me was understanding exactly how the frontend and backend communicated with each other – via HTTP requests. We had discussed and implemented HTTP requests in class, but I thought the communication occurring was between the backend and the database. In fact, the user performs some action on the frontend, resulting in an HTTP request being sent to the backend (and by extension, the database).

Knowing how to code both the frontend and backend of a web app is vital to become a web developer, but it is also important to be able to differentiate between them, and to understand why they are considered separate components of an app. I plan to work on developing the full stack of a web application from scratch, and the information from this article will enable me to begin development with a stronger understanding of how to build the frontend and backend properly to communicate with each other.
