I think full stack as a role is more of a could you do it. Not so much, you by yourself have to fulfill all these duties on your own every day. You also specialize within that role. I am a full stack developer that specializes in backend and Ops. Some specialize in design, or user experience.

On a typical day I code in just one area and might review a PR in the other.

Additionally, once you understand the basics most tools vary only on syntax and method names that are one Google search or auto complete away.

People get too caught up in react vs angular and forget they are both MV* frameworks.

Object oriented design patterns and functional programming will get you way farther than react or spring boot tutorials, in my opinion.

Well, there is no clear formula here. Write up is based on what I have experienced and what you do is absolutely valid as well
