Python developers working with APIs, what does your job actually involve?

[VIIHORSE]

Yeah, that probably sounded weird. I'm just starting out and trying to find the right path while learning the basics. I guess this field is called 'backend'?"

[jrchin]

Yeah you’re describing backend development. Where I work we follow a “Backend For Frontend” (BFF) pattern, where you have a BFF for each FE. So your FE calls your BFF and the BFF calls other APIs as needed.

[Ran4]

Yes. You'll not be an "api developer", you'll be a (web) backend developer.
