"full stack web developer"
What do we call people that are actually full-stack, rather than just the front-end client/server parts?
- chc 13y agoIn the context of Web development, what are the parts of the stack that are not the client or the server? I thought those were the things that defined the Web.
- coolsunglasses 13y agoI'm a full stack dev that's built out distributed systems and has filled in for the role of "resident DBA" while still doing backend and frontend dev. Now I'm learning biomedical NLP. So what do we call me? Stuffed-full-stack dev? There's more to life than knowing Rails and Coffeescript.
- chc 13y agoNote that the phrase employed here was "full-stack web dev". It sounds like you aren't doing web development, so that would be the distinction.
- coolsunglasses 13y agoThe point in time I was referring to, was full-stack web dev plus DBA & scale-out work.
- j45 13y agoI agree. Full stack is from a time where you had no choice but to setup the server, configure the network and then build the front end and the backend of the app. Full-stack it seems, has become a diluted term now.
