Nearly every new programmer starts in the UI.
Then, when you discover how annoying that can be, you CLAW your way out of it. I would recommend you know a backend language such as Java, .NET or Ruby. Learn it well.
- bloomca 10y agoJava and .Net both seem too enterprise. I'd like to make the transition during the year, so is it possible to get a job despite not having experience in such fields? Scripting/"Startup" languages (like Go, Python, Ruby) seem much more easier to get a job with not so solid experience.
- rpeden 10y agoBe careful about that enterprise assumption. I've worked for two startups in my career. The first used mainly Java, and the second used mostly .NET. Heck, lots of companies you'd consider to be enterprise are building cool projects with React and Angular 2 front ends hooked up to Java or .NET on the back end. Projects like those might be a decent way for you to leverage your current experience and work your way toward back end development.
