Reply To: Web Developer vs Front End Developer

[Senff]

I’d say it’s just the specifics. Analogy alert:

Web Developer == house builder
Front End Developer == painter
Back End Developer == bricklayer

In other words, a Web Developer is just a more general term than Front End Dev and Back End Dev, which are more specific.

Next up, discussing the meanings and differences between Front End Engineer, Web Programmer and Integrator. ;)
