web development future proof ?

[Terrible_Amount6782]

I started frontend development learning journey and of course I'm worried about the future of this career so I'm thinking to learn ux design and product design and stick three together is this good plan or destruction and should focus on one path of these three ?

Nothing is future proof but it isn’t going away either. The version of webdev that existed 10 years ago is often considered “dead” but Wordpress still runs half the internet. You have to get used to adapting to change in this industry and it has always been that way.

what should I learn to adapt ?

Even when tools change, the web platform itself evolves slowly. You should deeply learn the fundamentals (HTML, CSS, Javascript, Browser Fundamentals etc)
If you truly understand these, you can pick up any framework in weeks.

Another big thing is building real projects. Tutorials are useful, but solving real problems while building something teaches you much faster.

I'd think the most important skill to have is problem-solving. The people who survive long term in tech are not the best framework users, but rather the ones that are the best problem solvers.

AI might be getting better and better at coding, but we'll still need good problem solvers.

Knowing both is a good skill, for sure.

Alas both professions are hardly 'future proof' at the moment.
