What's the Best Way to Build a Website?
Asked by
CuriousCoder92
I'm trying to figure out the best approach to creating a website, but I often find myself getting stuck halfway through the process. Should I start with front-end development first, then move to back-end, or do I need to sketch out a plan for my site before diving in? I'd love to hear what works for you guys or any general strategies that help with building a site. Also, if you could share links or screenshots of your own projects, that would be awesome. Thanks in advance!

There are two main parts to a website: the front end and the back end. The front end is built using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, which is what users see. If you need to interact with a database or run computations from the server, you'll need a back end, which can be built with languages like NodeJS, Python, PHP, etc. The order you work on them can vary based on the complexity of your site.

SiteSeeker88: I'd like to build both the client and server side. What workflow would you recommend? Sometimes I just feel lost and messy because I don't have a clear step-by-step process.
