Dev Ops? What would a beginner position look like? I’m self taught

#react #devops #dev #vue

What would a beginner position look for? Is Dev Ops a good start for someone starting with web design?

In terms of "Devops engineer" positions out there, not really. However, being a frontend developer that knows ops is a very useful skill. Many organizations who implement DevOps may not have actual "DevOps engineer" positions, and instead make the developers responsible for some aspects of operations.

Some subjects that touch frontend include (but are not limited to):

writing automated tests (see testing pyramid)
automating code quality checks through linting, automated dependency auditing, etc
implementing a CI pipeline; running code quality checks and tests on every pull request
Understanding etags, cache control, etc
Deploying a static site to a CDN
Building observability into your frontend using tools like sentry or datadog

Thank you, I’m not too familiar with Ci pipeline, tests, catch... what you’ve mentioned. I’m familiar with React and Vue, and the layout of how things flow using them. I’ve recently gotten interested in Django and Python. The APIs of Django REST Framework interests me.
