Working on server-side software, which focuses on everything you can’t see on a website, is part of back-end development. Back-end developers focus on databases, back-end logic, application programming interfaces (APIs), architecture, and servers to ensure that the website works correctly.
Back-end development refers to activities in web development that take place at the program’s back end. In contrast to frontend development, which focuses on customer-facing services and programs, backend development encompasses server-side web application logic and integration as well as activities like writing APIs, creating libraries, and working with system components.
