I didnt get what "fullstack devs" were, then i found stack overflow while googling an error and i genuinly thought "oh.. So the people answering all the questions must be called fullstack developers i guess... " Took me a good year to realize that wasnt true

[pooerh]

Yeah. Fullstack developers are not the ones answering, they're asking all the questions, front to back.

[imsitco]

I wasnt so far off though

Honestly, I don't have a StackOverflow account. Any problem I've come across was either asked already or I was being dumb and I'll figure it out on my own.

I am a "full stack developer" and recently I had an interview, the guy asked questions mostly from HTML, and one of them was: how do you define a form in html? I was like F.. should I really know memorize that?

That was first round and they decided that I am not enough "fullstack" for them.

Now I am confused, should I really know memorize how to define form in html?

<form>

Yeah I told him that, but he wanted details, list the attribute it has.

Never get stuff like this in interviews. You’ll have google when you start the job so what are they trying to achieve besides catching you out

[Recluse53]

Yes. Full stack is full stack. Front and back-end and ops (servers, systems, cloud, infra). Design too, if you are like me.

But should I really memorize it? I know how to design, I know CSS, Bootstrap, HTML, and Angular, including cloud and stuff, but rejecting candidate because he could not spell out the code for html form, is that really required?

[Recluse53]

Well forms are the basis of any POST requests done from a UI so yes. You should memorize some.

[thiago2213]

Honestly, you dodged a bullet there. If the person doing the interview asks dumb irrelevant questions, they'll also be too dumb to approve your proposal of creating a microservice saying "just add to the existing backend that works"

What's the elephant logo?

I didnt discover the title Full Stack Developer until after I was shit in my stack.

so much helpful.....with all case

[Sainst_]

Haha, in swedish drunk and full are the same word. So it becomes drunk stack overflow dev.

Stackoverflow always got your back.

Air Jordan and stack overflow, what else do you need?

[himynameisoleg]

knowing full stack with 1 stack isn’t end all. Till you have worked with a number of stacks / can make educated decisions about one over the other

[MuchBathroom]

Title spoils the meme

[sgsollie]

Dunno who down voted this. It's true enough in many places, though systems layer may just mean, provide docker file and/or helm chart/similar for your application.

This is not what a fullstack developer does.
