A front end developer translates designs into the interactive, visual parts of a website or application that users see and click on, primarily using JavaScript, HTML/CSS, and modern frameworks like React. Many also use TypeScript for more robust, type-safe code and apply responsive design principles so interfaces work well across devices and screen sizes.
