Frontend vs Backend vs Fullstack Web Development - What should you learn?

When starting your coding journey, you'll hear a lot of buzzwords like fullstack, backend, and frontend web development, but no one really tells you what you should learn and why.

So in this video, I'm going to give you my insight as to where you should start as a beginner. I'm a fullstack software engineer, but I specialize in the backend and I teach frontend web development to beginners. I've also worked part-time at coding bootcamps that taught fullstack web development, so I have lots of experience that informs my thoughts on this, as an educator and practitioner.

So, I hope you find this video helpful in helping you figure out a good place to start your coding journey!

I like that you're setting a 10 month window. I'm on month 5-6 of my program and I feel like I've learned only a fraction of what I need to get a job. I'll need to double down on JavaScript and React.

Sure, I understand I need to create projects. But a little more foundation doesn't hurt.

Great advise. This is helpful. Keep going. I am on this path after 18yr hiatus now starting with python.

So what i gathered from this vid is that it's a good idea to start in front end first and then eventually make your way into backend??

[ogochukwufaith]

Thanks for the brief but impactable knowledge
Hope to learn more

I did a data analytics college program which gave me great knowledge in the backend. We also learned some basic web dev with html and css, then i did a client side course in this program that made me learn vanilla js. Then after school i learned bootstrap and react.

I think having the knowledge of what the back end is doing made the front end a lot earier.

Im new and learning. Im wanting to start front end, move to back end and eventually become a full stack engineer.
