Front-end development engineer core learning architecture (lite version)
1. Basic core layer (must be proficient)
- Basic three-piece set
• HTML5: Semantic tags, Accessibility (ARIA), SEO optimization.
• CSS3: Flex/Grid layout, animation, responsive design (media query, Viewport adaptation).
• JavaScript (ES6+): modular, asynchronous programming (Promise/Async), prototype chain, closure, memory management. - Modern Framework and Type Safety
• Vue 3 + Composition API: Responsive principle (Proxy/Reflect), component communication, Pinia state management.
• TypeScript: type system, generics, tool types (Utility Types), engineering integration. - Network and protocol
• HTTP/HTTPS: Cache policy (strong cache/negotiation cache), cross-domain (CORS/JSONP), HTTPS handshake process.
• RESTful API: Design specifications, debugging tools (Postman/Thunder Client).
2. Engineering and performance layer (deep mastery)
- Build and deploy
• Webpack/Vite: Configuration optimization (code segmentation, Tree Shaking), plug-in development (Loader/Plugin).
• CI/CD: GitHub Actions/Vercel automation deployment, Docker containerization. - Performance optimization
• Core indicators: Lighthouse analysis (FCP/LCP/CLS), first-screen loading optimization (SSR/SSG).
• Resource management: Lazy image loading (Intersection Observer), format compression (WebP/AVIF), CDN acceleration. - Safety protection
• Attack Defense: XSS (Input Filtering/CSP), CSRF (Token Verification), SQL Injection (ORM Protection).
• Dependency security: npm audit/Snyk vulnerability scanning, dependency version lock ().
3. Multi-end development layer (in-depth on demand)
- Mobile adaptation
• Responsive development: dynamic REM schemes, touch events (Tap/Swipe), 1px border issues.
• Performance Tuning: Reduce redraw and reordering, Web Workers multi-threading, offline caching (Service Worker). - Cross-end technology
• Mini Program: Taro/UniApp multi-terminal development, native API calls (WeChat Payment/Geolocation).
• Desktop application: Electron main process communicates with the rendering process and operates local files.
4. Frontier architecture layer (differentiated competitiveness)
- High-performance architecture
• Islands architecture: Partial Hydration mode of Astro/Qwik, server-side rendering is preferred.
• Micro front-end: qiankun/Module Federation realizes module splitting and independent deployment. - Visualization technology
• 3D development: Core (scene/camera/lighting), Shader programming (GLSL).
• Map development: Mapbox vector tile, Cesium terrain rendering (GeoJSON data processing). - WebAssembly integrates with AI
• Rust + Wasm: High-performance module development (audio and video decoding), interoperating with JS.
• AI native applications: LangChain calls, large model front-end display layer optimization (RAG search enhancement).
5. Expand the technology stack (enhance breadth)
- Server-side basics
• : Express middleware, NestJS hierarchical architecture, SSR framework (). - Edge computing
• Serverless function: Vercel/Cloudflare Workers implements global low-latency distribution. - Testing and quality
• Unit Test: Jest/Vitest Coverage Optimization.
• E2E Test: Cypress/Playwright simulates user behavior.
