Roadmap To Become A Full-Stack Developer

If you want to create a website just for blogging then you can go for a blogger. But if you want to build your own design or any idea then you must learn a lot of things related to development.

The main motivation to become a full-stack developer is demand, well, this is a digital world and every company that wants to enter into it means they want to develop their own app or website to make themself visible online. And internet users are increasing day by day and the user spends almost time on the internet. Let’s take an example of amazon, internet users order products online instead of going to market. That’s why the demand for a full-stack web developer is very high these days.

These are many topics I will cover in this article.

01. Desirable Skills

Nowadays, the company will look not only for technical skills but also for soft skills, so try to develop soft skills such as:

a. Innovative thinking: You are working in the development field, you need to bring lots of innovations to attract clients. So, develop innovative thinking skills.

b. Problem-solving skills: While doing programming you may face lots of errors so to fix errors you should have the problem-solving ability to debug errors.

c. Learning attitude: You must always upgrade yourself to learn new technology. Example: In earlier days, PHP was used at the back end, but now python is used.

02. Branches

Any branch student can become a full-stack developer, but companies will hire people from branches like computer science and information technology. If you are from another branch then you can do online or offline courses to become a developer.

03. Work

The work for engineers will be to design and develop a website, or to develop an app for both android and IOS. In full-stack development, there are many sub-fields to work such as front-end development, back-end developer, database management, cloud computing, app development, etc.

04. Full Stack Developer

A full-stack developer is one who knows everything on how to design a website, how to develop a website, android apps, IOS apps, he also knows how to manage databases, how to use cloud services, and lots more things like SEO, google ads. In this article, I will divide full-stack development into 6 categories such as front-end development, back-end development, app development, database management, cloud computing, and additional things such as SEO and google ads.

05. Front end developer

Front-end developers are responsible to design web pages that consist of buttons, text, videos, navigation bar, footer, etc. Front-end developer work is to design a static web page using languages like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

HTML(HyperText Markup Language) is a rendering language that is used to add a heading, paragraph, images, videos, audio, table, etc on the web page. The CSS(Cascaded Style Sheet) is used to apply color to web pages and to make the webpage look more beautiful. The javascript is used to make the webpage more interactive.

There are many frameworks to learn for front-end developers. The goal of the framework is to provide designers and developers with a focus on creating a unique feature for their web-based projects rather than writing the code from scratch. The popular front-end frameworks are Angular JS, React, Node.js, JQuery, and Vue.js.

06. Back end developer

The back-end developers are responsible for making the web page dynamic by connecting it to the database. The languages you need to learn to become a back-end web developer are PHP, Python, Ruby, Java. Many developers use PHP or Python in the back end. You must also know SQL (script query language) to manage the database. SQL is used to insert data, retrieve data, update data in a database such as MySQL, Postgresql, MariaDB, Oracle, etc

There are many back-end frameworks you need to learn such as Django programming language used is Python, Ruby on Rails programming language used is Ruby, Flask programming language used is Python, ASP.NET programming language used is C#, Spring Boot programming language used is Java.

07. DBMS

The Database Management System is again a subfield where engineers are responsible to manage huge amounts of data. To manage a database you must know query language i.e., SQL. The SQL is used to manage a relational database such as MySQL, Postgresql, Oracle, and other relational databases. A database is a place where we will store all data of the website.

08. Cloud computing

If you want to become a full-stack web developer then you should know cloud services such as AWS (Amazon Web Service), GCP (Google Cloud Platform), Microsoft Azure, GoDaddy for domain registration, IBM Cloud, etc. These cloud service providers offer many services related to web applications, IoT, machine learning, AI, blockchain, android app, etc.

09. Apps

This is also a subfield in full-stack development where your task is to develop apps for both platforms such as android and IOS (iPhone Operating System). The languages used to develop android apps are Java and Kotlin. The languages used to develop IOS apps are Objective C and Swift. SQLite database is used for mobile applications.

10. Additional things

Apart from this full-stack developers must know about SEO (Search Engine Optimization), which is done to rank our website in search engines like Google, Bing, etc. By making your website search engineer optimize, the traffic will increase more. And the engineer must also know about Google AdSense because once the traffic increases in your website by using google ads you can generate profit.

11. IDE – tools

For web development use tools such as visual studio, light table, brackets, subline text, Notepad ++, etc. For android app development use a tool that is Android Studio, and for IOS app development use tools such as Xcode, AppCode, Code Runner, RxSwift, etc.

12. How to start a career as the full stack developer

a. If you really want to become a full-stack web developer then choose the computer science or information technology branch in engineering because in these two branches you will learn everything about full-stack web development.

b. Be strong in your subject or programming languages that are thought in engineering. You must be strong in subjects such as HTML & CSS, PHP, Python, Java, DBMS, etc.

c. Do projects on developing a website or on making apps. Try to develop a blog website first.

d. Be good at using IDE tools.

13. How to develop skill sets

To develop skill sets do projects related to full-stack development, go for an internship during summer, enroll in online courses to learn more, do some freelancing work.

14. Job profiles

There are many job profiles in full-stack development which I discussed above such as:

• Front end developer
• Back end developer
• Android developer
• IOS developer
• Database management
• Cloud computing
• And SEO, Google Ads

15. Projects

The projects to make during engineering related to full-stack development are:

• Travelling website
• Blog website
• E-Commerce website
• Ebooks website
• Android app on Bluetooth sharing
• IOS app on VPN
• Course website like Udemy

16. Salary

The salary for a full-stack web developer depends based on the company you are working for. The average salary in India for a fresher is 5 lakhs/year and for the experienced person, it is above 10 lakhs per annum.

17. Companies

• Facbook
• Bacancy Technology
• Innofied
