Java Server Pages Technology is used to create efficient and powerful front end's for Web Applications.
Client Server
You have to code differently for both client and server. Client uses front end while server uses back end.
what is Front-end server ?
The front-end is anything that interacts directly with the user (such as the GUI). The back-end is everything that goes on behind the scenes and is generally of no interest to the user. In a client-server application, the client is the front-end and the server is the back-end.
In terms of Sharepoint it is the point of contact between the farm and the user that delivers the content as web pages through HTTP. It is not the back end database server, shared service provider, application server, search server or any other middleware Sharepoint provides.

"Back end" and "front end" are typically used to refer to two different parts of an application. The front end is what the user sees and interacts with. This includes things like GUIs and web pages. The back end is generally where the actual work of a program is done. This can include anything from a database or a server to another module in the same program as the front end.

Javascript is a client-side script, meaning it runs only in the browser. It has no access to the server. For access to the server, thus creating a back-end, you need to use a server-side scripting language such as ASP or PHP. If you want to make a more fluid interface, JavaScript and AJAX can be combined with one of the two aforementioned server-side scripts, effectively creating a back-end and a front-end.
