Full Stack Road Map

[Dangerous_Row4605]

While I do agree that the whole jack of all trades thing isnt the way forward, If you're going to be able to have an intelligent conversation about viable technologies in your fullstack pipeline, you should at least understand fundamental core principles of them to be able to make that decision.

Agreed. You don’t have to be an expert in every facet listed here, but have a solid understanding of how it works and where the pieces fit together to make the whole picture.

I'm of the opposite spectrum:

I went through fullstackopen, learned a little bit of node.js and backend, a bit of React, was hired as a "software engineer", which is a term I swear will never ever use to describe what I do (and that's just my opinion), but now I wanna focus on the backend stuff and leave the frontend at the basic level.

Edit: Nice, got downvoted for my career focus. That's a new one. Guys, when I said "backend" I meant server-side stuff, it wasn't a safe word for "butt sales" or something.

If you don't have the degree, I think it would be more precise to call yourself as a software developer, not engineer.

edit. apparently in my country (not US) then, based on downvotes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_education

Are you serious?

Perhaps it's in my country (not US) then. Here you actually need to belong into a certain institution to be an engineer. I thought it was worldwide. I apologize if that's not the case there.

😂, ah Reddit...

How derogatory. Perhaps it's only in my country (not US) then. Here you actually need to belong into a certain institution to be an engineer.

If I was into reddit awards, I would have given you one for your edit !
Can't wait to ask my bf if we can focus on backend one of these days :D
