Back-end development refers to the server-side of web development. It focuses on how a website or web application works behind the scenes. This includes managing databases, server logic, APIs, authentication, and server configurations.
Key components of back-end development:
Server: Handles requests from the client (browser).
Database: Stores and retrieves data (e.g., MySQL, MongoDB).
Server-side languages: Used to write logic (e.g., Java, Python, PHP, Node.js).
APIs: Allow communication between front-end and back-end.
Authentication & Security: Handles user login, data protection, etc.
Back-end developers ensure that everything on the server side runs smoothly and supports the front-end for a complete web experience.
