I'm hesitant to completely scrap a particular term just because it's been abused in the past. To anyone writing job descriptions, I would say a "full-stack developer" role needs to be accompanied with:

  • what past experience one would need to be considered full-stack
  • what the day-to-day responsibilities would be of a full-stack dev at your company, particular technologies / frameworks included

This ensures that you're up-front about your expectations and helps potential candidates determine their fitness for the role.
