What is a full stack developer?
A full stack developer is a person who can turn a customer’s idea from paper into a fully functional web application or system. He is both a front-end and back-end developer, so it is possible to develop almost all applications and functions. The full stack developer has a profound knowledge of tools, techniques and the programming languages.
His job is to make sure that all parts of a web application are connected to each other and that the collaboration can run smoothly.

How to become a full stack developer?

  1. programming languages
    Mastering several programming languages such as Java, php or python is helpful because most core business processes have to be written in these languages. Furthermore, the language grammar should also be mastered in order to be able to structure, design, implement and test in the different languages.
  2. front end technology
    Front end technologies are becoming increasingly important. The user experience is also an important aspect to measure the success of a product. It depends above all on the front-end technology. For this reason it is helpful to master these technologies and to educate yourself in this area.
  3. database and cache
    As a full stack developer it is helpful to have knowledge of at least one database and to know how to use it. Well known databases are for example MySQL or MongoDB. This is important because every product needs a database to store the data.
  4. basic design ability
    The design skills of a full stack developer can also be helpful in understanding and implementing the principles and capabilities of basic designs.
  5. self requirements
  • Good communication skills
  • Creativity
  • Time management skills

Final thoughts

It is a question of the areas front
end and backend in detail and to make the connection between the two as simple as possible. This certainly requires patience and a desire to learn.
