I work at amazon and this video is far better than the trainings they provide to their employees itself.
Don't let amazon sack you
Where are you from bro
u can hire this guy then...
😂
no shit?
This might be my favorite video of the year. Such great info, puts so many terms I've heard into context. This answered many questions I was afraid to ask. Such high information density, not a second wasted. Thanks Simon!!
Thanks for watching! 😃I'm happy the information is helpful
@@SuperSimpleDev very epic video
Absolutely correct!
Most definitely i have never been so interested in Backend development.
nice, even i have never studied anything about Software engineering still i understand everything 👍.. anyone looking for IT JOBS CAN REACH ME
The ability to teach with such clarity is truly a gift.
Yes a truly wonderful gift and talent
This is the BEST video I have ever watched explaining backend development..I'm intrigued,,,,once I nail frontend development I am coming for the backend ...Most people say "There is a lot to learn in the frontend , you don't need to learn backend too" ....Well I need too , I can't be at peace knowing their is something at the backend of my website that I have no clue how it works , I just can't
I feel you
I relate kkkk
Same
Sir, I never comment on KZhead videos. However I just wanted to say this has been the most helpful no-BS video I have watched in a long time. The value in this video is insane. You've managed to teach me something in 13 minutes that my university professors were barely able to teach me in 4 years. As a mainly frontend Dev looking to become Full-Stack, I now have an actual understanding of the backend architecture that was so unclear from other learning sources. I honestly want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. You gained a subscriber.
Wow thanks so much for taking the time to leave such a nice comment! 😄 your support is really valuable to me and you can be sure it motivates me to continue sharing what I've learned. There is a lot more to backend of course, but once you understand some of the bigger overall ideas behind the technologies, I think it will be easier for you to get more into the details. You got this!
Thank you sir @SuperSimpleDev

@@SuperSimpleDev Me too sir... love your Way of telling and also got more interest in BACKEND... Tq sir❣️from india🇮🇳
I second this, literally the most beneficial, elegant, concise video I've ever seen
I’ve been self-learning code for around 5 months, initially wanted to take a go at fullstack, but backend has always intimidated me. You made it so clear that I’m intrigued by it all over again. Thank you for sharing this!
Diwali Animation Using HTML and CSS kzhead.info/sun/a9x6hc1ojKyJeq8/bejne.html
So true 😂😂 I actually want to learn more about back-end development
Noobs lmao
How is your progress in learning code after 9 month?
@@egrekov im 6 months in and starting to build more and more smaller projects, gonna make the projects better soon, learn django, api's and databases and hopefully start applying for jobs in 3 months, all whilst practicing my problem solving skills everyday, its alot, but I want it, I need it
It's the first time in my 8 years career that i understand these concepts with such clarity. Infinitely grateful!
Absolutely incredible video. I think this video should be shown to every student pursuing a Comp Sci degree, and developers who are just starting out their career.
My god the clarity is incredible. The visuals, narration, and expiation are spot on. So glad I found this channel, keep up the good work!
this is gold, you managed to fit a lot of knowledge exactly in their right place and connect them to us with visuals and animations this is so well done thank you for this great effort Simon
Fantastic work explaining complicated concepts so clearly and with simple examples. This is indeed a rare gift to have.
Ive been looking for this video for 4 years. Everything in proper context in one place. Thank you!
I can’t express how incredible it is to get a clear-cut explanation like this. Thank you!
Wow, this is objectively the best explanation to this concept that I've ever seen. Extremely underrated video and channel! I wish I could subscribe more than once.
Thanks for watching and for your support 😃
Diwali Animation Using HTML and CSS kzhead.info/sun/a9x6hc1ojKyJeq8/bejne.html
I agree. This is the most well explained, easy to follow with the most helpful video I have seen yet on KZhead. I'm a subscriber now. Thank you Simon!
@@SuperSimpleDev same!! what a perfect explanation..I am still amazed.
The way this video is balanced between manifesting the roadmap and both introducing and explaining the technologies so lucidly is astonishing. Excellent work.
Dude this was such a clear explanation of the back end, thank you. If this is the quality of informative material you make, you need to do as much as possible. Incredible work on this video.
By far the best explanatory video on internet I must say. Not a single second wasted. Straight to the point. Perfectly explained. Thanks mate!
Honestly, I don’t comment on YT but I think this going to have to be the most articulate video on YT. You managed to explain a complex in an interesting and concise manner. Thanks for the great work!
This is hands down the BEST, and I mean THE BEST video explaining backend that I’ve come across. As someone who’s learning Front End having already begun with backend, you’ve honestly simplified backend in a nutshell.
I just spent more than hour rewatching this 12 minute video, taking notes & letting all of this information permeate into my brain. That’s how valuable this video is to me right now.
I had no idea about back-end development, cloud computing, types of databases etc. You have made it a lot easier for us by explaining everything in a cleane way.
This answered a lot of questions that I was afraid to ask. With such a high information density, no second is wasted. Thank you, Simon!!
Nice! You are one of those rare people who know how to explain complex concepts very clearly and smoothly. Subscribed.
You packed so much information efficiently in a 12 minutes video. Enjoyed it
As someone with dyslexia and ADHD, I really like your style and I haven't caught myself zoning out that much. Great explanation, you saved me a lot of time and topics to search for. Keep going
This is the best explanation of Backend development I've ever seen on YT so far. Thanks Simon !
I never usually comment on videos, but this one is insane. Hats off for the clarity provided!
This is just marvelous. Explained bunch of complex technologies in an awesome way. Thank you very much and very best wishes.
The most useful video on the topic ever! I have been searching for this FOR MONTHS, even paid courses don't give the information in such an easy to understand and logical manner! I'm beyond impressed! You, sir, have reached a mastery level most people don't have.
I wish I had found this video a year and a half ago when I was just starting out in DevOps. The explanations are so simple and clear, it's amazing. Definitely bookmarking this one!
This might be my favorite video of the year. Such great info, Such high information density, not a second wasted. Thanks Simon!!
You made the path for my full stack dev career so much more clear. Great video.
The breakdown of how a web app works was immaculate. This man truly has a gift for teaching.👏👏👏
SOOOO many questions got answered today! I'm someone who has recently got interested in computers and everything related to it and i was really confused about all these terms and softwares. This is exactly the video i was looking for!! You're amazing!
This is the most concise and well explained content I've ever seen about backend, which would demand a lot of time to anyone who knows nothing at all about this topic. My sincere congratulations to you!
You have no idea how brilliant you are at explaining things! Thanks very much for making this great video lecture!
Hi. I want to appreciate you because it was one of the best compact and almost complete explanation videos I've seen on KZhead. A lot of misunderstood topics been solved. So Thank you so much! 😀
The clarity you have explaining everything all this is just amazing 💖
This has to be the most useful video I've seen in years. 10 terms that I had no idea what actually meant now click in my mind. Thank you.
I have been trying to take on backend development. It always intimidated me as it always seems to have a lot of stuff and different jargons. This is such a great video that demystified everything. Thank you for this one!
So simple and in the same time so good explained. Thank you for the great content!
I’ve been scratching my head at these concepts for WEEKS and you explained everything perfectly in less than 13 minutes. THANK YOUU🎉
You answered so many questions other channels just seemed to skim over or completely ignore. Thanks alot for your detailed explanation 💓
I wish more people would explain these concepts this way cause it is super helpulf for junior devs like myself who are still struggling to understand some of the concepts of programming!
Brilliant, precise, knowledge transfer at its best. Kudos to you for putting this up and helping others in need! Keep it up!
The clarity with which you explained the topics was satisfying. Loved the content.
That was one of the most instructive videos I've ever watched. Thank you so much for explaining so well!
This is one of the most clear and concise explanations for what a modern backend is, thank you
Am a front end and I cannot tell you how many times I have seemed this information on KZhead without success. I can't believe the clarity, detail and the quantity of information you have managed to compile in such a short video. Iam now clear on the hazy area I had as pertains to backend. Honestly I can't thank you enough.
Dude you break this down so well. Development concepts in a super simple way.
Such a fantastic compact video. Can't ask for more. You have made me understand the entire cycle which I was struggling to understand. Hats off.
Bro this is a clean way of explaining stuff…preciate 👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿
Thanks for watching! 😄
As other said, you summarized at least 3 cloud courses in a row. Thanks for this video, was very helpful!
Thanks for your comment and glad to hear that its helpful! :)
Excellent explanation! As someone who's currently learning web development, this has single handedly been the most helpful video so far.
You did an amazing job dude! I was planning to read a book which has over 500 pages to understand this.You saved my life with 13 minutes. Thank you so much.Stay safe and healthy!
Thank you soo much for this absolutely marvellous video, you explain so well the actual functionning of a backend!
I almost felt obligated to make a comment as I finished this video. KZhead is my primary learning platform for tech and I have spend thousands of hours in this platform over a couple of years. But this is by far the most no bs, to the point, clean practical explanation I have seen. I know a lot of these elements but I am finally able to visualize them interact with one another like how I would understand the working of a car when I inspect the car and it’s internals physically. Thank you 🙏🏾 for your incredible efforts, intention to share this knowledge and the time. ❤️
Wow, I've been reading up on backend and getting really confused. Your video straightened all my confusions out in 12 mins. You're a great teacher🙌🏽
@Karthik Ramamurthy , What's the use C++ doesn't it come under backend development?!?
This is the best video to watch for Backend Dev beginners. He explained many terms I've heard. Thanks Simon!!
This video is absolutely amazing, there are so many key topics discussed here that other tutorial videos often use and make sounds like advanced buzzwords but you break down each one seamlessly so that anyone at any level or stage in their development career can understand👏absolutely amazingly done! I’ve learned more from you in 12 mins than I have hundreds of other videos.
I'm in my third year studying informatics at a university but this essence of programming has never been this clear to me. Huge thanks ;D
You at Uj?😅
I just started programming a month ago. first thing I watched was your html and css tutorial, which was so helpful to get started. it was very long, but I think there was really no second wasted. it really was the best tutorial I could find. since that, of course I stll train html/css everyday (cause no one can learn those things if they do not practice on a regular basis) but I always take some minutes to check out your other content. You really got a way to break things down in an easy way and you manage to explain very complex matters in a very easy and memorizable way. just want to say THANK YOU. GREAT CHANNEL.
Thanks for watching my videos! I'm happy to hear you started programming and you're practicing (you're right it is the way to get more comfortable with the tools and solving problem that you run into along the way). There's lots to learn, but just focus on the technologies one-by-one and understand why the technologies exist in the first place and you'll go really far!
Very Concise and clear explanation.The only pre-required content one can see before kicking off with their dev journey. Thank you very much Man, highly appreciate the efforts
By far the most in depth explanation of all the technologies used at backend. Legendary work 🙌
4 years of engineering in information technology yet today i understood the correct place of each technology / software in the backend .... One of the cleanest explanation out there ❤❤
Hey buddy, the way you teach a particular topic is just osm🔥🔥. Please try to make tutorials on backend because backend is the only topic that's exaust. And always make complicated topic easy....🙂
There are so many Tech youtubers but only a few actual Tech teachers; I can assert you are one of the very few. The modern IT space has evolved with a humongous jargon of terms; you have successfully demystified many of these terms with lucid explanations, putting them in practical perspectives. Well done mate.
This is superb these concepts are often explained skiping past some of the things mentioned but you did a wonderful job providing enough context to make this easy to digest , thank you
This is the most informative, clear, and concise video I’ve seen about these concepts. Dude you’ve gained a subscriber
Welcome aboard!
One of the most simplistic and informative learning experience All in one! Your video is a must for anything aspiring engineer or developer looking to see the complete picture end to end! Wonderful Job! Thank you so much! Keep up all the awesome work! 🥇👏🏽
Thanks for your support! 😄 I'm happy to hear it makes sense for you. Of course, there's lots more to learn than just this, but it's nice to get a general sense of how it works, and then go more in detail
This is quite a brief but yet comprehensive introduction to Web Development. Thank you
This is far and away the single most helpful video I've ever seen on KZhead
As an aspiring developer I saw a very scary ad for this thing called canvas that claims they can make a website as complex as Twitter with low code/no code interface. I’d love to see a video about your thoughts on tools making coding easier and easier and so driving down salaries.
That’s a really good question! And something I’ve wondered about when I started. The short answer is: yes, this has been happening ever since this industry existed (jobs become obsolete because of new & better technology). The long answer is: they’re probably exaggerating in that ad. If you keep up with the latest technologies (or just become a manager after a few years) it won’t affect you that much and salaries will keep going up and up. But I’ll think more about it and share my opinion in a video 😄 thanks for the suggestion
Low code / no code is like reducing your vocabulary. You're not going to describe complex concepts with a 5 year old's vocabulary.
Cool video. Not every backend typically uses a lot of packages. JS specifically uses NPM as a package manager, and yes, if you use JS as a backend, you will have a TON of packages. If you use PHP as your backend language, however, you may only have a few external packages.

The best explanation I have ever seen of how the backend works, thank you!
This is by far the best video explaining how the backend works and along with the visual flow, Thank you so much!!!
I am in the middle of a Masters in CS and I still learnt things from your video, great job mate!
SAME
This video is honestly an incredible piece of work. It is the best breakdown I have ever seen of the topic I have yet encountered. This really helps me as a product manager understand what the software dev team does. Thanks!
I’m for almost 2 years now between these technologies, no one ever explained them the way you do! You guys are paving our learning way, thank you so much.
Great to hear! Thanks for watching :)
This is why I subscribed to you. This video alone is everything a developer needs to understand the full picture of backend development. Such advanced information, explained so simply. Even Einstein would see that you truly are a genius at this.
Back-end Front-end Week-end
I think this is a very informative and good video. Sadly, the fact that PHP wasn't mentioned in the backend programming languages @ 1:30 bothers me a bit. It's still to this date the most commonly used server-side programming language.
Thanks for watching! Ah, I'll mention it next time then
If you asked me what are the worst languages to use on the backend that would actually be the list. please don't use JS or Python on the back-end. Go and PHP are better choices and this is looking at it only from a performance perspective. If there was a viable alternative to JS on the front end no one would use it, don't force new team members to have to use it on the backend :| I'm begging you.
Thanks for your thoughts! The video is for beginners and most people start with JS or Python these days, so it's a little easier for them to relate if it's a language they already know
One of the best breakdowns I have ever seen on KZhead so far.
I could listen to this man WHOLE DAY EVERYDAY! The way you articulate yourself Sir! This is a priceless content! Thank you for this! I am starting my full-stack web development journey and your HTML + CSS is GOLD! I'm now on your JS videos! Thank you man.
Thank you so much! This is by far one of the most clear, detailed, and most effective videos which I have watched to understand tech jargons. No fluff. Pure crip knowledge. Please keep posting such videos. Just subscribed your channel and like your video. I hope your video reaches out to many more people out there!
Seriously this video has power packed content and really this covers almost complete software development cycle. Many software engineers don't know this complex integration and i think this video deserves lot of view's. Thank you for the wonderful content and loved this video.
Simply marvelous!! Never thought someone could explain such deep concepts in such a simple manner. Kudos to you.
this is so simple but there’s many meaningful lesson that i’ve learned thank you and don’t stop doing this
One of the greatest videos on YT 😱. It demystified so many concepts. I'd been struggling to understand the backend and APIs before watching this!
It is unbelievable how well explained this video is. Thank you so much, great work!
A very good explanation of what backend is. You have cleared my basic doubts about how backend works and what services we can avail for our projects for backend as well .Thank you for sharing this!
Simon is there for us. This guy just made every thing so simple and on point. I'm emotional after so many searches, finally got a Channel that provide valuable content. It feels like heaven 💪❤🤞
Best explanation of front end and backend i have ever came across.. Looking forward for many more tutorials. Thanks super simple Dev 💙
This video answered all of the questions that I haven't been able to get answered anywhere else. Super helpful, made understanding all of this a little less daunting.
Wow great detailed video! I don't comment but I just started learning cloud computing and coding and this is by far the video that makes the most sense. It breaks everything down in a way it's easy to understand. Thank You! I watched videos for hours and this 13min video has helped me a lot more than those 5 hour+ videos.
this was nice! Thank you! Like the visuals and the pace. Just what I needed!
I'm completely new to web development and i need to learn backend for my personal project. this is by far the best video i've come across that explains what backend development is. I always need a story to make sense of any new concept, everything is connected, very easy to understand. I think i learned about cloud computing once but i can not understand what it even means until now omg you make it so easy to understand
This is my first comment ever on KZhead, and I simply wanted to express my gratitude. This video has been incredibly helpful in understanding how backend works. Thank you!
This was such a suitable video for me. Explained in brief about many technical terms i have heard. I am so much clearer after watching the video about backend. Awesome work!
simple and straight to the point! i never saw such a clear explanation of rest. thank you.
Thank you so much for making such a complex topic seem so easy to understand and process with superb illustrations. 🙏🏼
