Don't Blame the Frontend Developer
Why we often blame the frontend for team problems
When you see a frontend solution that clearly should have been handled on the backend, it's easy to blame the frontend developer. But often, it's the frontend dev who’s left to "figure it out" when backend support is lacking or the feature was incorrectly scoped from the start. This is one reason I believe teams should be full-stack, or at least empower developers to work across the stack. That way, when someone hits a blocker like a missing endpoint, they can unblock themselves and build the feature the right way.
