It used to be straight forward. There was front-end, there was backend, and often there was a graphic designer. In the world of web development titles, things were pretty straight forward. If you stated you did front-end, it was assumed that you knew HTML, CSS, some JS, jQuery and your way around Adobe and Macromedia products. The multitude of tech boot camps would have you think that we’ve moved up to, UX/UI, Front-end, Full Stack, and Backend in which you have a selected stack of programming languages. But in reality, the tech world has become so diverse that there is a lot more to it than that.

It’s easiest to start by breaking down seniority claims and expectations. I see posts saying how people became a senior developer in less than three years. I’m here to tell you that it is a bogus claim.
