Full stack is a generalist. They may have expertise on one area, but are functional in most areas. Also, full stack developers are typically found in simpler web-based applications that are CRUD oriented thereby allowing one developer to provide solutions across the different application tiers. Frameworks like RoR are what likely began this trend of “full stack”, but the environment is more fragmented now. Any developers that claim to be experts in all of those tiers are likely delusional.
