Economic efficiency
Hiring employees is associated with costs: you need to provide the specialist with a workplace, a computer, pay for licenses to use the software. Hiring an outside specialist can help reduce overhead costs and increase profits.
Availability and scalability
The development cycle of projects is of varying intensity. Depending on the stage, different skill levels of specialists and the size of the team are required. At the start of development, a powerful team may be needed, while one dedicated specialist may be enough to maintain the finished system, quickly fix bugs and develop new functions.
Expertise and experience
It takes a long time to build a competent development team that will work effectively together. Many outsourcing companies have their own training systems and vertical organizational structure. If you need a separate project, then you will not have time for such long preparations. Thus, hiring an external resource to create a frontend will protect you from situations when the qualifications of an employee are not enough or the team needs to quickly expand to perform a sudden large amount of work.
Specificity of tasks
If you have a formalized technical task, design layouts and prototypes, then you can quickly submit the task to the front-end. You can strengthen your in-house design and development team through outsourcing. This will allow you to efficiently perform complex tasks. If there is communication between the team members and there is an administrative resource for managing the project team, then external employees will quickly establish interaction with your in-house staff.

Previously, when the Internet was slower and browsers were weaker, website development was divided into two key stages – layout and programming. Today, the process of creating functional web services has become more complex and requires back- and front-end development. Front-end is an important component of any web project, which is responsible for the appearance of the site: graphical interface, buttons, navigation menu, texts, images. In other words, it is the part of the system that runs in an individual user's browser. Therefore, it is sometimes referred to as the client side. The quality of the frontend application will largely determine whether people use your product.
HTML, CSS and Javascript are the three pillars of any frontend application.
HTML is the skeleton of the site that defines the layout of the main static elements and
page content. Using CSS, the system tells the browser how the site should look, what color
the pages will be, whether the buttons are rounded, and whether they cast shadows. Web
layout is built on these two technologies.
In the modern world, this is not enough, so sites are still actively using Javascript
technology. This programming language allows you to run software scripts on the client side,
that is, right in the browser. On the basis of this language, many development tools have
appeared, which are usually called frameworks and libraries. They use Javascript or
Typescript to efficiently solve specific problems and improve development efficiency in
solving different problems. For example, using React Native, you can create mobile apps for
iOS and Android.
The main differences between the frontend and the backend
The backend is responsible for the server side of the site: it stores and organizes data,
makes sure that everything works fine and the client receives the requested data. This part
of the website is not visible to the user and cannot directly interact with it. The
functionality of the backend application is available to users only through the front-end
application. Processing business logic, implementing API, creating libraries, working with
system components, creating algorithms, integrating with third-party services are also
referred to as backend.
