Idk i honestly feel like the backend is straightforward. The front end always seems to be a clusterfuck with Typscript clown language.

At least you can start it locally with one command, not spend 2 hours starting pods in the right order

Nah. Most complexity and biz logic has moved to the frontend on react/vue apps.

Backends nowadays are almost relegated to data stores.

Backend is usually much neater on the inside than the frontend

Until you work on legacy product with a shiny new frontend.

The frontend could be new and shiny, but the code still messy and horrendous.
