I imagine when he mentioned Full Stack he was implying Web Developer unless the term goes beyond the web.

- limmeau 13y agoJust like in the context of HN, "designer" seems to mean "web designer".
- jacalata 13y agoI don't think this is a HN-ism. Can you point to a reference to 'full stack developer' anywhere that does not refer to web developer?
- limmeau 13y agoI don't claim that "Full stack developer" has been used before.
- jacalata 13y agoI'm not sure what you're saying. You think this term was made up by HN? Or is brand new? I can find references on the web dating from 2008 without even trying.
- limmeau 13y agoI'm not claiming any prior use of "Full stack developer"(TM) (haven't researched that), just that HN discussions often have a web-technology bias, where "designer" implicitly means "web designer", "low-level" means "in a VM inside a browser running on an OS running on a processor", etc.
- pellias 13y agoMy intepretation of his definition is for a developer (web or other-wise) to be able to build an entire software mostly by himself, from setting up the server/database/network, designing the data models, implementing the business logic (with frameworks, APIs) and then designing the HTML/CSS/JS UI.
