How front-end can help UX and Back-end guys? How they interact? I tell a little about it in this slides, showing how the front-end can help the back-end and UX.

7. Interactive Design
This important guy is a scientist of behavior. He understand how will
navigate and use all pages of system. They take business needs and
product requirements and transform them into user-focused interface
and experience.
8. Interface Designer
I like to name this guy simply like Designer. He will design the layout
and the modules that will bring the interfaces concepts to life,
cultivating customers and brands. They know how an beauty interface
can sell and retain more costumers.
9. Back-end
They care about the environment and how the functionalities will work.
All the server side logic of application, API structure and web services,
databases integrations and many other processes.
10. Front-end
Very short explain: Front-end is the guy that will implement the Layout
created by Interface Designer and will study and apply the project
specs explained in wireframe designed by Information Architecture.
11. What about UX?
This is a long and boring discuss, but here we go: I think the way that
UX name is applied is wrong. UX is not a concern of one team or one
person. The client support cares about the User Experience. The dev
and the Product Owner cares about it too. UX is not an exclusive name
to a exclusive type of people in a project. All people involved in a
project is an UX.
12. Let’s be clear
All people that works with web are responsible for user experience. Not
only UX, UI or Front-end. This is also a concern of back-end, product
owner, manager and all people involved to the project.
14. Linear or parallel
Sometimes the flow needs to be linear, like in small projects like
websites. But, with the adoption of web standards this flow can be
parallel. This is awesome.
28. Implement direct in back-end code
Instead deliver a static code to back-end, the front-end team can
implement the html/css/javascript code directly into back-end code.
29. Consume API
If Back-end deliver an API, the Front-end guys take care about all
interface. Back-end don’t need to write any line of front-end code.
42. A Framework helps all
If you work in a big company that have a big product or many products
that share same visual interface, maybe it's a good idea to create a CSS
Framework and define a common styleguide.
44. HTML needs to be common to all
If exists one thing that back-end, front-end and UX teams needs to
learn, this things is HTML. The HTML is influenced by all.
48. In fact, having only one front-end
developer in a team with other
developers doing only server-side
work is a recipe for disaster.

49. One of the reasons for poor design
execution is that UX teams need to
own more than just design. We need
to own front-end development.
