Is the term "back-end" too technical?

Hey no-code community,

I'm building DoTenX.
It's an open-source "back-end" and automation builder.

I hope we have many non software developers here, and I have a question for you.

Is the term "back-end" too technical? Is it clear enough how the applications can be broken into two parts of "front-end" and "back-end"?

    I think most people in tech (non-developers) would know what backend is. But perhaps adding terms like "business logic" would be helpful to those who aren't technical.

      Thanks for the suggestion. "Business logic" sounds good, just have to figure how to use it.

        Idea: You can give them an introduction to what a backend is, and talk about business logic in the backend.

          Definitely that helps. Have to do something about it on the landing page.

      Well, exactly that's the point. I want to see how clear the term is to non-developers.
