How to spell front-end or frontend correctly?

Question

IT terminology

In half of the vacancies it is written with a hyphen, in half - together. Is there a well-established tradition of writing the terms frontend and backend? Is there a rule according to which one must unequivocally write in this way, and not otherwise?

Here is some more discussion on this topic from a specialized resource: english.stackexchange.com/questions/34447/is-it-fr...

Answer 2

Apparently it doesn't matter, and it's right, whoever likes it, I personally find it more convenient without a hyphen,
but the translator translates differently
Front-end - Front-end
Frontend - External interface
What is closer to you? :)

Answer 3

There is an article navigating job titles on the web css-tricks.com/job-titles-in-the-web-industry according to it - generally Front End :-D
Personally, I like writing Front-end.

Answer 4

Quite a lot of controversy on this topic.
I usually write front-end :)
