Beginners Guide to become Full Stack developer in a year

Hi folks, I am a Fullstack developer familiar with various technologies related to Web as well as Android development and worked as a software developer in many startups and worked for clients as a freelancer developing websites and Android applications.

The very first question that arises for the beginner to become a developer is to where start learning and what the initial step to take to become a good skilled developer in one year*, instead of trying and hitting on various domains and finding out what suits you well and what is good for you and what are the resources for totally free of cost as well.*

So I am going to help you out with this.

To answer the very common as well the most asked question for the people who are trying to start their journey to become a well-skilled developer, help developers find out what is your Domain of Interest, that’s the most important to figure out to save your most time because it is not possible to learn everything and one more thing is that it will consume most of your time and that’s the wrong approach according to me.

So how do I figure out what is good for me to learn?

The very first thing you have to do is to figure out whether you are good at Designing, if yes then you should try the Design job if you can think and create a creative design of your own then it will be beneficial for you because not everyone can design a good looking design of their own.

Some are good with programming skills and logical thinking and if can think logically for the problems that you are given that programming might be the right Domain for those types of people.

Another Domain is Backend Development and that is high demanding skill if someone has one because a backend developer is required everywhere for both web as well as Android applications so if you think that that might be a good domain for you then you should try it out.

I learned Designing and Development but I was a good Backend Developer when it comes it Designing the front end, I can write code for it but not very creative design, So I chose to go for Backend development.

For developing Android applications various technologies are there like Kotlin, React-native, Flutter, Ionic, and many more but choose wisely which language you are familiar with because it will save your most of the time in learning a new language shifting to the related technology.

So I am providing you with the main technologies that help you out.

  • Front-end development: This involves creating the user interface and the interactive features of a web application using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. You should also learn how to use front-end frameworks, such as React, Vue, or Angular, that make your development process faster and easier.

  • Back-end development: This involves creating the server-side logic and the database of a web application using a programming language, such as Python, Ruby, Java, or PHP. You should also learn how to use back-end frameworks, such as Django, Rails, Spring, or Laravel, that provide you with ready-made components and functionalities.

  • Database: This involves storing, retrieving, and manipulating data using a database management system, such as MySQL, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, or Firebase. It would be best if you also learn how to use SQL or NoSQL queries to interact with your database.

  • Version control: This involves tracking and managing the changes in your code using a tool, such as Git or GitHub. You should also learn how to use branches, commits, merges, pull requests, and other features that help you collaborate with other developers and maintain your code quality.

  • Deployment: This involves deploying your web application to a web server or a cloud platform, such as Heroku, AWS, or Azure. You should also learn how to use tools, such as Docker or Kubernetes, that help you create and manage containers for your application.

  • Testing: This involves testing your web application for bugs, errors, and performance issues using tools, such as Jest, Mocha, or Selenium. You should also learn how to use testing frameworks, such as TDD or BDD, that help you write and run your tests efficiently and effectively.”

These are the things that every developer should become familiar with because it will not only help you become a good developer but also land a good job.

It will take time but with consistency and dedication, everyone can learn. It can’t make you a skilled Developer Overnight but many nights constantly combined can make you, and don’t worry if you face some problems because those who start learning even also do but if you solve your problems and constantly do your job then one day you will say “It was hard and challenging but I did it ”. Because those who face problems and leave anything in between regret it after some time because they completed half of the journey and wasted half of the time, then they will jump to something else.

Let me make one thing clear everything takes time but you should have patience that it will be worth it.
