I watched this video 6 months ago and I felt so overwhelmed. I am here to tell whoever feels the same way this… “it gets better, just keep learning..”

I am a 20 years old Senior Full Stack Dev, and although I have been through every and each step of this roadmap mentioned, I often have to go back to them and revisit or dust it off one or another or learn something completely new. So if you're a junior or less and already feeling overwhelmed, dont give up. I also feel overwhelmed after 20 years on the road. The good news: I make a lot of money and I can quit a job for the slightest annoyance a company gives me and guaranteed I'll find a new one within less than a week.

amazing roadmap.. as a software architect of 20 years I've used most of the tech stack described and seen the environment changed so much.. this is a perfect introduction to the current state of things. thanks!!

Wow, I'm back to developing for two months and this is the best video I've watched, It really feels good having a map like this

I am studying Java for nearly 2 years in the official documentation and still in the basics concepts. I hate courses that promises 'learn to code in 6 months' or 'from zero to hero in 2 weeks' (shitpost). Coding is a lifelong learning.

I enjoyed the video. As someone that works in the field, I just want to share a bit what I've learned. The most important thing is to keep things as simple as possible - do only what is asked from you, there is no need to implement visitor pattern whenever you are asked to add an endpoint to the API. Also, don't stress about how much there is to learn, take it one step at a time. If you don't want to learn some things mentioned in the video, you will be fine, you will learn it along the way while doing something else. Google is your best friend, if something goes wrong, you can search for it. If you can't find an answer, ask someone to help (people usually like to help others). Another thing is overthinking the job listings (like "I don't know most of these things"). I applied for jobs where I knew very little from the listing and got a job because they saw I was willing to learn. Companies know that you can't know everything they list and that they will pay you months and months without getting value, but when you learn their practices, you will be great addition to the team! Keep coding, don't give up and don't let things overwhelm you.

Nice to get a roadmap to make it effectively use cloud services. I also really enjoy your warm style of presentation.

I wish I would have known this 2 years ago. I would have structured my whole learning process differently. This is amazing content that I'm going to share on multiple platforms to help others. I have clarity now. I don't just have a bunch of puzzles pieces with no clue how they fit together. I have actual clarity! Thank you!

This. No babbling no ranting. Straightforward answer.

I am just getting started and this is just what I have been looking for! Thank you so much for creating and sharing this video.

One of the best videos I’ve watched so far on backend development !

I loved the humour in this one that is mostly not possible in shorts. Great video !

You my guy have earned a subscription from me😁😁this is really informative honestly simple and straightforward💯I have been looking for a backend roadmap for so long that’s not an 1hr long but has so much information to give thank you so much and what you have said has been noted😁👍🏾

Great video - love the humour and the editing style/effects 👍

Thanks for your videos man. They keep my motivation up.

Amazing video! All information presented rings so true as a developer in data science for over 5 years already. 👍

your channel is crazily undervalued, im gonna have to press like on every video to get you in the algorithm

Fkin gold mine of a channel. Hope to see you grow much bigger

Thanks a lot i enjoyed your help throughout this backend of a thing, was a really helpful

Love Your Content Man...... The amount of quality which you are putting in your videos for community is amazing. Really appreciate your work. Keep growing and helping devs like us.

Good video, helped a lot. Thanks my man.

Knowledge + Humour + Code = Subbed. Cheers.

I am new to it, and im so confused where to start , i thought going directly to learn multiple languages and thats it, but this enlighted me a path to follow ! Thank you so much you really motivated me to dive deeper!

The roadmap is awesome! Thanks!

Thanks a ton for the tips, great video!

thanks for helping me discover those roadmaps, really glad there was one for Android dev. ty!

brooo! you made the whole destiny of my life clear to me😁❤

Love the videos, exactly the video I needed. Thank you Lewis!

Thank you Lewis, this was a nice introduction to coding :)

Thanks so much for connecting all these nodes together and showing us the big picture.

You're doing a fantastic job, Lew! I can imagine things becoming much clearer for a lot of people. Keep it up!

It's a really good way to go about it. Great video 👍

your explanation flow is ordered, informative and understandable happy to have found your channel, subbed👍🏻

vooh! u just cleared shit loads of tension that I should have taken to figure out what to learn thanks man! will keep posting the updates here as I am learning and hope everybody does that

I would have liked to have known this 2 years ago lol, where were you? anyways thanks. This video is freaking Gold, u r GOD SEND.

Im new and this introduction looks really scary but could not be any way better or more profesional.Thanks for this guidance 🙏

Excellent work, Lewis. Wish I’ve seen this when I was starting (probably would’ve ran away though)

Great roadmap!

Big thnx for this roadmap. The site you've mentioned in the beginning already use too. Your roadmap is very straightforward and simple for beginners. Good luck with channel!)

amazing video bro🔥👍

Backend developer here. Clicked on the video by pure curiosity, and I liked it a lot. Very informative (and hilarious I might add 😂). Great job man, I subbed to the channel 🎉

Excellent! I would only add to always keep in mind security. Keep up to date with the OWASP top ten when architecting, developing, testing, and deploying.

Although Backend Development seems quite hard… You encouraged me to keep learning. I hope to read this comment in the future as Junior Backend Developer Thanks ❤

Made my life easier, Thanks🙌

You earned a subscriber with this video💯

Great explanation! Thanks

Blew my mind. Amazing video!

You are creative as always

Thank you for the inspiration !

this was really insightful thank youuu

Thank you Lewis

thanks for this great video

wow on your journey man 2175% growth in a year or 400k+sub in year keep growing and making good quality content

Thank you for putting efforts now in making long videos.

This is what i needed thanks alot

Hey big ups lewis, keep it up with high quality content.... I'm also aspiring to be a back-end developer this was very helpful but i still have a long long way..

Great video, I was lost before this, I now feel as though I have a plan.

I can honestly say, this is great video for beginners, I agree with everything. Most important - take one language, and stick with it.

thanks for inspiring:)

watching this video after working as a backend developer for more than a year. Great Video 👍

Wooo.. That was a lot to take in.... Even a newbie like me got a pretty rough idea about backend... Thanks, Lewis..💫 I will laugh lil bit harder if I see the front and backend memes from now on😆

Hey Mate just wanted to say that these resources are absolutely amazing. Thanks heaps for sharing them with the world. As a aspiring backend developer these things help immensely.

omg your delivery is so funny... love you...I applied for frontend role at my current job but I have been doing nothing but backend work since i started lol, so i really need to learn this formally.

Thanks for the info it was really helpful 🙏

Thanks a lot Bro!

Great video to help me get started. I bought a full-stack course, but it is very front-end heavy, and I am interested in doing back-end

"Fly my little programmer" hahahah I love it!!!! Awesome video as well man.

Thanks a lot. Very helpful

Thanks for this video. I really enjoyed a lot.

Great video Thanks a lot

This was very entertaining & informative

Thanks Bro!

Before I even went into Linux, I took the CompTIA A+ certification. It’s mainly for IT and help desk employees. However, it forces you to study so many fundamental internet concepts: TCP/IP, UDP, link layer, DNS, VPNs, ports, protocols like HTTP and SSH/Telnet, operating systems, and way more. It even delves into Linux scripting and the Windows command prompt. It helped me so much once I began going through my roadmap.

Amazing video to get information about backend development and also development. That's also fun way to introduce this world :)

First time here. New subscriber from Brazil!

Am a frontend dev getting into full-stack with javascript, I think this is a better roadmap primer than the rest I have seen so far, you earned a sub!!!

Watching this video and you currently have over 400k subsribers, PROGRESS.

its really a good video. Im currently being a web developer using Laravel at my company and i was thinking on how to improve my skills or even my carrier, and this video help me to figure out which things i should learn next and damn that last segment on "Keep Learning" is so damn true, i was really confusing on what to learn or what to improve because of so many tech and things out there to learn, once again im gratefull for this video, keep up the good work mate 💚 *sry for my poor english

You are a great man! I am a regular learner who learns every day. I am using LinkedIn learning, skillshare, and Udemy too. I leave LinkedIn last month because of the high price. Now I am learning from skillshare. But what is the point? The point is I never found a voice like you. I never found a teacher like you. I am a freelance graphic designer working for 5 years. But now I learning web development and I am following your roadmap. You are just a great man! I appreciate you.

you're hilarious!¡!!! THANK YOU for this amazing roadmap and advice

After watching this video i promised myself that i have to learn it , learn it .

I'm on my 30s and I'm looking for information about where to start. Thanks for the video

New Sub! I have to continue strengthening my abilities in Java or Python, SQL and Databases. I've touched blockchain and more over at AWS, a bit at AZURE and that's about it rn. Thanks for the roadmap bro! I'll be watching 👀 p.s. I'm also learning HTML, CSS, and JS to be a Samurai lol

Hi great video, I'm new to back end development as a new developer this road map is highly appreciative and informative as I can follow a pattern. I've subscribed also. Good job please do longer more detailed videos. Thanks so much.

very cool lewis, i'm a brazilian programming and thank you so much for the content

Awesome Video! *Subscribed*

After watching this video, it successfully changed me to a frontend developer😄

Awesome this video it"s a must if you want to be a backend developer

Great video!

As someone who literally just jumped into coding just recently, this roadmap seems very daunting, very, very daunting. Though very informative

Tysm very helpful

I'm learning embedded S/W design. It's challenging to learn how to tailor a Linux kernel to run on custom H/W. I recommend learning C/C++ if you're writing code to interface with H/W. I've been trying to learn Python on the side since this seems to be the high level scripting language of choice these days.

“Fly my little programmer” made me laugh so hard…😂 this is the type of validation, I’ve never got.

What a fantastically structured video and specially the Roadmap are crazy in terms of structure and level of detail. Probably an A+ university course which would cost thousands of dollars and you just prepared everything for free. As a newbie into coding - i am fucked :D

Thank you. I just dropped out of a coding school because I realised full stack wasn't for me and they didn't spend enough time on backend for me to really get it. Backend is what I want so I am going to teach myself from this roadmap on top of what I already know and aim to be employed by January. This video is exactly what I needed to figure out where to go and why I want to do it. Thanks, man.

The info is valueable, the jokes are hilarious.

good stuff thank you!

Thank you a lot !

He had me at "soap is not clean"

omg i love your humour!!!
