Jamstack, the modern way to write production applications, has redefined the way we look at frontend development today.
The frontend experience now is decoupled from the backend (or there is no backend at all due to the rise of serverless architectures), served as static assets via the content delivery network (CDN), and communicates with backend services through API endpoints.
Pure frontend experiences are becoming increasingly more powerful and complicated, needing increased investment and attention to how they are built and deployed to the customers. The times where the entire frontend could be backed into a Java monolith, could fit into 2 JavaScript files and 50KB (half of which was jQuery), and controlled a few dropdowns, are long gone.
