Yusuf Basically on the web a site is has A SERVER where the database and all the code is. The developmeng you do on the server side is typically backend. The graphics and responsive site you see on your computure. When you go to a site is FRONT-END development.

what you see on your PC when you open a website, it is front end. and what goes behind like getting content from database, doing any mathematical operation, which is done at back end. we cannot see what is happening at back end. only developer who developed app would have knowledge of what is happening in his website.

Front-end is what the user can see (I mean the design) Back-end ia what the user can't see (Diffrent calculations and operations that happen in the background)

In simple terms, the front end is what the users of a program can see or interact with. Then the back end is what the user can't see i.e. it handles the processes of the program. The latter can be referred to as the server-side.
