What you're witnessing is the migration of complexity to the frontend. It's becoming very difficult to find a backend problem that doesn't have a well-defined, generally accepted solution and accompanying FOSS that you would be stupid (or even borderline criminally negligent) to ignore. In fact, full-stack programming in general is boring enough that I welcome anything that stirs the pot a bit. That said, having tried at one time or another PM, management, and sales: programming is the worst monetizable career option, except for all the others.
