What’s the difference between a “software engineer” and “Front-end developer”. For example, if someone is designing the code for Google, who is designing the look of the app?
Like take a popular app like Outlook. I understand that software engineers design the code and stuff, but who decides how it looks, where the reading pane goes and stuff like that.
I googled “Front end developer” and was getting a lot of info about WEB developers, but that isn’t the same right? Like are the same people who design the look of how Microsoft Paint (where the paint brush goes, where the scroll wheel goes, etc), are those the same people that design the menus for a video game?
Are all those people “front end developers”? Are they “designers”?

As a student of ux:
We are interested in the challenges users(/stakeholders) want to overcome with our product, the environment in which they use it, where they encounter problems, how they approach new features/problems and how they feel about using it.
This is all researched empirically and then broken down into must, should and can requirements, to which we then try to find solutions with the rest of the dev-team and the customer.
