What skills should a frontend developer have?

A strong frontend developer should be proficient in HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript (or TypeScript), and at least one modern framework like React, Vue.js, or Angular. Knowledge of responsive design, accessibility (WCAG), state management, and version control (Git) is also essential.

Should I hire a frontend developer or a full-stack developer?
