Frontend and Backend Developers on a Date

Text on the meme

Front-end devs with UI/UX Designers Backend devs with DevOps engineers

What it means

A split-screen video compares front-end developers with UI/UX designers to backend developers with DevOps engineers. The upper panel recreates the awkward romantic dance and breakup mood of Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone’s “A Lovely Night” from La La Land, while the lower panel shows two men exchanging increasingly suspicious and unimpressed looks. The joke is that front-end and design teams appear romantically synchronized, whereas backend and DevOps colleagues have an awkward, dysfunctional relationship; the upbeat musical number makes the contrast funnier.
