Notes
What is Full Stack Development?
Web designer and developer roles have become more specialized and technical as organizations look for more customized solutions for their websites and online presence.
A Full Stack Developer brings the designer and developer roles together.
The line between the front end and back end development fades as more developers are becoming full stack and as more employers hire developers who can use the best tools for both a front and back-end project.
What is a Full Stack Developer?
- Full stack developers know the collection of both front end and back end technologies needed to build an application
- Front end developers build and design the user experience and involves codes such as JavaScript, HTML and CSS
- Back end developers build the storage and processing power of an application using servers, databases, and languages like Ruby, Java, PHP, Python or .NET
