I am doing everything on my own: front-end and back-end. I am proficient with HTML and CSS, but a noob in Ruby on Rails. Now that I want to develop the site, I wonder if I should start from front-end first, or back-end. Cos what I am doing for front-end now are all static. I am afraid that I have to change a lot of my front-end coding when I do my back-end.
