I had a feeling that might have been the case; my profile is more backend/data but I've kept a decent skill level in frontend. The pure web frontend jobs seem to have dried up. Especially as an older developer (I'm in my mid-40s) as frontend is often entry-level, there are an army of kids who can hardly code but are cheap and make things look "good".
I’m in Silicon Valley and a software engineer.
