2. if you're an artist that specializes and enjoys realism, why would you up your japanese anime art style? especially if thats not that you sell yourself as. you can improve your weak areas in the category you specialize in, like technique or equipment. that's what stef is saying. no need to be an all rounder and be average when you can be great at specialzing. there's a reason why there are front and back end developers, but it's not like they can't do the other side either.

I am creating web sites since late 90's... and I still can't decide if I am (web) designer, front-end developer or back-end developer. I love it all and I don't want to choose. This is comparable to renaissance inventors who did it all. With this approach I have invented alternative approaches to many problems in web development, something that focused developers probably wouldn't even consider to do. I have my niche and I am successful in my work. But - this is hard and I am aware that not everyone can do this. This is why Stefan is advising for you to focus on one.

Stefan! Thanks for videos. You've helped me a lot so I wanted to try and bring some value back to you in the form of podcast advice. I'm no expert but I listen to a TON of podcasts so I thought I could help. 1. You didn't link your podcast in your last video or this one in the description! Make sure to include it so it's easy to find from youtube! 2. Your podcasts don't display their length until you hit play and wait for it to load. This is important because length is a big determining factor on which podcast to download for which activity. Going for a quick jog? 15 min episode is perfect. Driving or a long commute? I'm going to want to download a long episode. If I download a podcast for my drive and then it only lasts 15 minutes, I'd be disappointed, but if I know that going in I'll just choose a different one. Glad you got into podcasting! Best of luck.

I'm finding the usual "front end is aesthetics, back end is logic" less and less descriptive the more I code web apps. The differences are somewhat swapped. Sometimes the front end UI code is more about the logic, say, with react-dnd or with react-router and redux while using SSR and a proxy for cookie auth, while the backend API code is more about the aesthetics, in the sense of making the code that does the usual validation and DB queries beautiful and easy to read for myself and others. But mostly, the differences are disappearing. Both involve use of modules, libraries, and frameworks, all built upon the same dozen or so common design patterns and algorithms and paradigms. So I just no longer find it apt to automatically associate today's front end developers with web designers and graphic artists and animators and what not. Especially also now that a lot of back end developer duties are being super simplified and abstracted with Infrastructure as Code. Anyway, as always, great talks Stef!

I envy talented frontend developers, it must be very rewarding to visually see when something works. I can design simple frontends, like if it just needs to serve a function I'm in, but when it needs to look good I'm out. Best of luck on your journey, backend is really not as hard as people make it out to be, so don't get discouraged, like with all things getting it to work is not the difficult part, doing it well is the difficult part. Every fool can design a backend that's hard to maintain and modify, good backend development is really just good coding and stuff about databases.

So many guys I know with computer science degrees who were very successful back-end developers told me this. If they just had enough artistic skill to make things look good, they'd make so much more money. But they can't. One guy told me that him and his team have to design stuff all the time and they're never happy with it. I entered a web development program a couple years ago. Hopefully my creative ability will make it really work for me.

What about those full stack developers? (are they the MMAs of the developer world?) Do they have to be masters of the front, middle tier and back ends? It seems so, and it seems that becoming a full stack developer is definitely something to aspire t be. In that process, you will surely discover what your strengths and weaknesses are and thus what aspect/s of programming you should concentrate on.
@3polygons6 жыл бұрын
My exact thoughts....
@andreasmuller63656 жыл бұрын
I don't think they have to be masters, simply because not every application requires master level competence. If an application has a simple frontend a backend developer can probably learn to code it quickly and vice versa. It's only if you need great expertise because all 3 tiers are complicated that you'd need a master at all 3. Kind of like the difference in MMA major and minor leagues, in minor leagues you get buy with specializing on one thing and knowing a little bit about the other things, only in the major leagues do you need to be good at everything.
@r3n7365 жыл бұрын
A Full Stack developer is just a front end Developer that upgraded to full stack developer with time. You first start at front end and then learn to implement back end with it. But a full stack developer is not a master back end developer. Because keeping up at a master level both front end and back end is too complicated for a human. At best you will be a jack of all trade. In job environment an advanced Back end developer can earn a lot more than a full stack or front end developer. Because is not the same writing the code of a CMS or ecommerce system from scratch and maintaining it, than modifying wordpress or magento. Many full stack use bootstrap which greatly lift the load off when it comes to the front end css.

Maybe their perceptions of the artistic side aren't quite what they seem to think they are. I don't think those back-end developers I know are so good at SQL either.

Many languages can be deployed on both the client and the server. That said, typically there is a favored space for them.

I think of myself as a front end guy, but I don't know how to design a pretty interface with the appropriate colors and position of widgets , etc, I like to implement it, not design it. And I have very little interest in back end, I just like to *code* the UI and make the app talk to the back-end.

Good question. UI and UX are related but not the same. UX is more inline with what you prefer where how well the visual interface works, from a user's perspective is what counts, not how it looks.
