The front end of software is everything the user sees and can interact with - text, images and controls on screen. The back end of software is all the code which does not get seen by the user - the algorithms and calculations used to work with the data the user has been entering or selecting.

For example; take Spotify:

The front end includes the window you see when you open the app, the search bar, the buttons, the list items for each of your songs, etc.

The back end includes the parts of the software that talk with the spotify servers over the web, check your account details, convert the streaming data into sounds your computer can play back, etc.
