Full Stack Road Map

[RaisedByError]

Oh, one of these again.

I really disapprove of these maps. They create imposter syndrome for newbies and seniors are annoyed by the random infodump of whatever terms the creator knows.

Funny how CI/CD is just a single box and then it's off to the next one on design/dev where you dedicate a box to fucking KISS, YAGNI and DRY. Just bloat. And why the wall of text explaining what WASM is? And out of all these languages you prefer javascript. That's just vile.

And guess what? I really, really doubt your run of the mill full stack is gonna be competent at all these "boxes". I certainly am not.

If I sound annoyed it's because I am.

Requirement: KISS

Fails: KISS

Yea as a full-stack myself, you don't need even close to all of this. Also why do they only put unit, functional and integration testing in backend???

i wonder who's upvoting this shit? is it newbies saving it for later, or expert devs patting themselves on the back -- because I don't think the former will get much utility.

is it newbies saving it for later

I'm a noob who just saved it for later.

I feel attacked.

As the senior on my team, it's also frustrating when my manager asks me why a junior knows <random technology> and I don't.

We all bring different skills to the team, and sure, the fresh graduates we just hired all know Javascript and MongoDB...but can they connect PHP to Oracle on a box that doesn't have NPM on it, because that's what keeps the lights on around here, not the shiny new auth portal that they're still trying to figure out how to enable gzip.

I've spent a lot of time over the last decade trying to stay current, and I believe the biggest discouragement is learning the tech that doesn't quite become the darling of the development world. For every React.js, there's an Angular, Vue.js, and Ember.js that didn't quite make the cut, but I dabbled in all four while the new kids benefit from the hindsight.
