"Full stack developer" is just a new word for "programmer". "Programmer" could be a role for any part of the stack, you just have to solve the problem in hand and you're good.
If you're good or not, specialist or generalist, that's another discussion.
- Raphmedia 9y agoIt would depend on who you ask but I consider that to be truly full-stack you need to be able to work on the UI/UX and design. With that distinction, full-stack isn't a new word for programmer.
- scierama 9y agoProgrammers have been doing UI/UX and design for decades.
