Web Development

As soon as one hears that word, the first question that arises in his/her mind is "What is Web development?" Is it the fancy stuff you see when you open a webpage or is it the magic that happens in the background by the wizards? Well, what if I tell you, it's the combination of both, the fancy stuff you see when you open a webpage and also the magic that happens in the background, Sounds fascinating? then let's have a deeper look at the topic.

Web Development is divided into two major parts, namely, front-end and back-end. Now one may ask "But, what are Front-end and Back-end? I've never come across these words!". The answer is simple, all the UI/UX and the colorful stuff that could be seen to the naked eye is known as Front-endBut, did you ever wonder what happens when you press that red button? Where does your information go? How does your information go? Does it just disappear into the black hole, or is there a mechanism behind all this? Surely there is! And it is known as Backend!

Career Opportunities

Now that we know about what Web Development is, let's explore a few of the dominant career opportunities in it:

  • Front-end Developer
  • Back-end Developer
  • Full-Stack Developer
But, who's going to choose a career based on how "good" it sounds? So let's jump into some statistics and numbers regarding the salary these jobs could pay:
  • Front-end: According to PayScale, a front-end developer earns an average base salary of ₹485,258 p.a. This figure can go as high as ₹1,000,000 p.a. and as low as ₹304,000 p.a., depending on the phase of one's career. 
  • Back-end: According to PayScale, a front-end developer earns an average base salary of ₹1,733,000 p.a. This figure can go as high as ₹2,100,000 p.a. and as low as ₹403,000 p.a., depending on the phase of one's career. 
  • Full-Stack: Full Stack Developer earns between ₹2.5 Lakhs p.a. to ₹17.0 p.a. Lakhs with an average annual salary of ₹ 6.6 Lakhs p.a.
