Hm...I guess. But don't you think getting a basic idea of all the different things happening on the backend (by doing them once since that seems to be the only way to really know s…

Hi HN, I'm a 'frontend' web developer. I've been working with web apps for the last 3 years and I'm fairly proficient with my stack. I have a good understanding of how the backend …
