Hello, Tim ! The backend is everything that works on the server, that is, "not in the browser" or "on a computer connected to the network (usually the Internet) that responds to messages from other computers." Frontend is everything a browser can read, display and / or launch. That is, it's HTML, CSS and JavaScript.

Frontend is what you see on your browser and in most cases you can change stuff from your browser but the backend is never visible to the client and the backend is the code that produces the frontend in most cases. Example: Fetching data from a SQL database and putting the result in a li tag in a web document would generate a series of li tags till the loop ends. I hope this answers your Question.

Frontend means what user can see on their device. Languages used in frontend Html is used for all content you see in any website (forms ,texts ,images etc). Css is used to style these content. Javascript is used to add interactivity.
