I work full stack and even do dev operations and my title is not “full stack” and I believe the reason why is so HR can argue to pay me less.
This is quickly becoming the norm in every industry. Every employer wants fewer employees to do more, without paying them more of course.
It’s not just developers. I’m in web marketing and I’m expected to do front end work including creating figmas and writing code. This is along with my regular duties as a marketer.
What’s figma?
Ligma’s cousin
UX designers use figma to create mockups that front end developers use to make landing pages.
Figma balls
Fuckin goteem
Open source alternative is called penpot.app
Worth checking out
There are so many plugins for figma that it is hard to switch to anything else.
Yeah, I’m full stack and use it for quick mockups and communication with our marketing person at work.
But I never hoped on the figma train fully, so penpot works for me.
What are some integrations that I might find useful?
(I work predominantly with a Stencil.js website and react native app (traditional MERN stack for the app, the stencil website has tons of custom integrations))
I use a handful of tools. I think the one I use the most is build. Io. It basically scrapes a page and creates a figma design from a webpage. It’s useful if I’m planning on building a test or creating a new page that requires me to bring elements from other pages.
It cuts my workload in 1/2.
My situation, give it to the “computer” guy.
I’m not even in tech. I teach maths at night school to support myself while doing my masters. Somehow I’ve become the ‘computer guy’ at my job. All the teachers and even office staff ask me to explain software to them that I myself have never even used. I need to learn to say no.
can anyone explain to a hobby programmer?
They develop software on Marshall Full-Stack amplifiers, rather than the smaller, less powerful Half-Stacks.
Hope that helps clear things up.
I used to work as a full stack developer 😢
As a Jr. Full Stack, I’m in this picture and I don’t like it.
This is why I stopped identifying myself as full-stack and only do front end.
