In computing, "frontend" refers to the part of a software application, website, or system that the user directly sees and interacts with, including the user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) elements like buttons, menus, and text. It focuses on the "client-side," meaning it runs on the user's device, and is built using languages like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

Key aspects of frontend computing

User Interface (UI): The visual and interactive elements that a user directly experiences on a screen.

User Experience (UX): The overall experience a user has when interacting with the application, which frontend developers aim to make seamless and intuitive.

Technologies: Frontend developers use a variety of languages and frameworks to build these interfaces, including HTML (for structure), CSS (for styling), and JavaScript (for interactivity).

Client-side: The frontend code runs on the user's device (the "client") rather than on a remote server.

Contrast with backend: The frontend is distinct from the "backend," which consists of the server, database, and application logic that operate behind the scenes and are not directly visible to the user.
