Morphology
The meaning 'the part of a website or application that users see and interact with' is directly and predictably derived from combining 'front' (the side nearest a viewer) with 'end' (a part or extremity), i.e. the front-facing part of a system. This compositional pattern is common in English and in technological contexts across languages, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents would very likely infer the meaning.
Etymology
Front end comes from the image of the front of a shop, the part people see while the work happens 'behind' it. So in websites and apps it means the part that users see and use.
