This refers to the aesthetic portion of the website and its usability.  Front end is the part of the website users can see and interact with. Anything that you can see when navigating the internet from font, colors, to images, to dropdown menus and sidebar.
That is to say, front end development has to do with designing the user interface of a site, like the physical things that you can see when you visit a site. Front end developers focus on making the site attractive and friendly. He has little or no business with the functionality of the site.
