Dewu Disbands Front-End Department: AI Coding Tools Drive Full-Stack Transformation Trend

Recently, Dewu's front-end department was fully disbanded, with all staff merged into the back-end to transition to AI full-stack, a news that shocked the tech circle. It's not an isolated case; companies like Meituan and Alibaba previously promoted front-end to full-stack, reflecting organizational changes brought by AI coding tools.

AI tools such as Cursor and v0.dev can quickly generate UI and components. Back-end developers using AI can finish a week's work of a front-end team in half a day. Front-end positions face adjustments due to AI efficiency, while complex back-end architectures still require human effort.

Advice for tech professionals: Abandon "front-end" or "back-end" labels, master AI coding tools, focus on business and complex decisions to enhance irreplaceability.
