Any modern software or application that we build must have a backend API (Application Programming Interface) whether design in C++ IMPL Interfaces Or HTTP REST Architecture, and a Front End User Experience to consume this API which could range from a mobile app to a voice device. This is an open discussion, when you as a software engineer want to design a new application, what do you start first? Front-End User Experience? Or the Back-end API? We discuss the pros and cons of both. I enjoyed making this episode!

Enjoy guys
