Frontend, Backend & Database Explained | How Modern Apps Actually Work | Day 4

What exactly happens inside a modern application when a user clicks Login, searches for a product, places an order, changes a profile, or makes a payment? In Day 4 of the Software Architecture & System Design Fundamentals series, we break down the three most important layers behind modern applications: Frontend, Backend, and Database. This session explains what each layer does, why they must be separated, why the frontend alone cannot safely control everything, why backend logic is needed, and why the database acts as the permanent memory of an application.
