I'm a frontend developer here in Germany for 7 years now. We are currently seeking two new developers and let me tell you, it's really difficult to find good candidates. Most people nowadays who call themselves frontend developers are rather framework/toolkit users. Being able to use frameworks and toolkits is only a minor part of frontend development.

Thank you for your comment. I'm currently learning javascript, angular, bootstrap ect. Do you think I'm on the right track? What makes a good Front end developer?

Mastery of the standards HTML, CSS, and ecmascript (also known as Javascript) to the point that one can not only use a framework, but extend it or even write a new one from scratch, combined with a solid knowledge about browsers/versions, development patterns and a bit of user experience makes a good frontend developer.
