Full Stack Developer's Roadmap 🗺

If you are new, and you are coming in here to see this.

I hope this isn't overwhelming to you.

Don't be discourage.

A Full-Stack Developer is more of a very long journey rather than this experience listed out here.

• abandon CAP theorem, embrace CALM theorem
• hypermedia-oriented design, richardson maturity design model, hypermedia view-based design, hypermedia modeling
• segmented discourse representation theory (sdrt) model
• odrl model
• wai-aria model
• rail model web.dev/rail/
• prpl pattern web.dev/apply-instant-loading-with...
• xdi/rdf/schema.org/etc.
• core/coap > mqtt
• async REST, ARREST, resthooks.org, github.com/badgateway/ketting/wiki..., etc.
• microservices: use scale cube (microservices.io/articles/scalecub...) and microservice design canvas (dzone.com/articles/streamlined-mic...)
• use YUML (github.com/jaime-olivares/yuml-dia...)

the web fundamentally is a distributed hypermedia application

Python 3 would be a fundamental language to learn before even JS, Rust, and Go.

Excellent list. For the benefit of other folks who may be working in a company that uses different technologies for different groups, I recommend adding some information about Subversion (SVN) under Version Control. I was so used to git, but hadn't ever used SVN and it took some time to get out of the Git mindset.

There are two posts on DEV that may be of use :

Nice article, thanks :) ... but there is nothing about Frameworks. They are very important. Full-Stack Dev should know Spring Boot (JAVA) and Symfony (PHP) for creating REST APIs and Angular or React for Front End development. There is many topics covered which are less important than frameworks, that needed in work ;-).

The article is about fullstack roadmap. A person new to programming would only get tripped up with JS's quirks, if they truly want to learn JS and not a framework or library. Python will be better to learn OO, and with that foundation someone can tackle the idiosyncrasies (prototypal inheritance) of JS. I would never wish for my enemy to come into programming with JS as their first language. Better to get an early win with Python or even Java. It's not a race.

You need to now what's availble, but focus on Front-end or Backend. Unless you use JavaScript, of course. In this case you can be more or less proficient in the client and server tech.

The best is to learn concepts and patterns. The rest are tools that come and go. If you know a programming language, you will figure our any framework or lib written with it. If you know what databases are, what are the core principles, how they work and what they are for (SQL, NoSQL, Graph), you will figure out MySQL, PostgresQL, Mongo, etc.

With this knowledge you will be always uptodate.

Cool list missing the frameworks though like React, Angular and Vue. Also there are much more languages than that some readers might think that you have to learn all of them. When in reality you can specialise with certain technical stacks like React/Node, React/Flask etc... Also you did not mention Python as a language which has more popularity than PHP and Ruby. Choice is good better to cover them all.

I didn't see much on a major corporate tech stack: Microsoft-backed .NET frameworks, SQL Server, and their server architecture (IIS).

There's also not much on what I consider the nexus point, common ground, equalizer, or uniter of the front and backend dev: the IDE. And to tie it back to MS, IMO, they provide the 2 best IDEs in the business: Visual Studio and VS Code. The IDE is where I spend 80 percent of my time as a full stack developer, along with browsers (using dev tools for troubleshooting and researching the internet--I consider the browser as part of the Integrated Development Environment, at least in practice).

It's not to be an exhaustive list of specifics, I know, but here's my comments on specific categories I saw missing the Microsoft platforms I'm used to learning about/using as a full stack dev, FWIW. (I also live in an Apache /Angular / PHP / MySQL world, and saw more about those stacks on the list, which is fair).

Good list of concepts and technologies to be aware of in some degree as a FSD.

Hi, I'm a newbie I have learned

{
  "web-development":{
    "front-end":["html","css","js(amature)"],
    "back-end":{
      "language":"php",
      "database":"mysql"
    }
  },
  "additional":["git","markdown"]
  }

I have made some small projects in past
What should I learn next

Thank you for sharing. I think it would be a good idea to add owasp.org/www-project-top-ten/ to the security section.

Nice , 😄, Add Java and C# in languages , it is used by big companies and enterprise, both languages have more Job opportunities. Also add Design Patterns in Development Concepts.

Just How long it will take to complete this journey? I'm in third (pre-final year) of my engineering and I'm about to start my journey in development. I still couldn't decide whether to opt for android development or web development.
