What are the most effective front-end development tools for animation and interactivity?
Gsap (and all its surrounding plugins) is the easiest way to get started writing cool animations with minimal code. It offers complete flexibility, as it's pretty low-level and just manipulates objects or DOM elements directly. Framer Motion is another great choice if you're working with React, as the declarative nature of React is a lot easier to express and tie in with your animations using Framer Motion.

How can you test the responsiveness of a UI prototype?
Nothing is as accurate for testing as a real device. Any prototyping or automated testing tool will always lack some nuance and detail that real devices offer, like different showing/hiding UI elements depending on browsers or how the status bar might clash with the UI of the prototype. That's why it's essential to always test on real devices.

What are your career options as a front-end developer?
The Front-End engineering role is a combination of technical skills like fundamental web technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and the more architectural design skills around modern JS frameworks like building reusable components, guiding data smoothly through the application, and integrating with 3rd party systems. It's also vital that the front-end engineer has a great understanding of business concerns, can communicate effectively with clients/stakeholders and collaborate with UX/UI designers, backend developers and project managers.
