There's more to backend development than just databases. Imagine that someone very naively said to you "I know how to program, I've never done any backend development and I want to work as a backend developer in the future. I'm looking for Backend: The Book".
- willmeyers 4y agoAh sorry about that. I think my comment came off as a bit rude after reading it back to myself. Backend development means so much nowadays I think it would be hard for someone to publish a general book on it. But maybe someone else has found something that I'm unaware of. I think you'll have the best luck collecting some general resources about different subjects. Here's some resources that I recommend flipping through. - Any up to date book on the programming language of your choice - Any up to date online course of the programming language of your choice - https://hpbn.co/ https://hpbn.co/ (networking) - Build APIs You Won't Hate (api design) - https://github.com/donnemartin/system-design-primer https://github.com/donnemartin/system-design-primer (system design) - API Design Patterns by Geewax (somewhat opinionated, but overall good resource for api design)
