🚀What is Full Stack Web Developer?

Full stack web developers can create full-fledged web applications and websites. They are responsible for the frontend, backend, database, and debugging of web applications or websites.

🚀Where to Start?

Let’s discuss each part one by one.

🔗Front End:-

The front end is the part of a website with which the user interacts directly.

Respective Logo’s

HTML: Hypertext markup language (HTML) is a Markup Language used to create web pages.
CSS: Cascading Style Sheet is the style sheet language which is used to describe the look and formatting of a document written in markup language.

Start learning HTML & CSS, this course will cover every topic you need to get started with Web Development.

3. JavaScript: JavaScript is a necessary component for adding dynamic features to your website.

Get started with JavaScript, I am mentioning a free course that will cover all the JavaScript basic topics, here is the link.

After completing this, you can make a few projects to practice what you have learnt. Here is a video course for making Real life projects.

Lets get into advanced with frameworks.

🔗 Frontend Frameworks:

Frameworks, both for frontend and backend development, make it easier and faster to create common functionality.

CSS: Writing css sometimes can be tough. Therefore, we have frameworks that are effecient & saves our time. Some popular examples are: Bootstrap, Bulma, Tailwind, etc. All you need to do is select one of them and learn it.

2. JavaScript:

React js: React A JavaScript library for building user interfaces
Angular: AngularJS lets you express the behavior in a clean readable form without the usual boilerplate of updating the DOM, registering callbacks or watching model changes.
vuejs: Vue.js is the Progressive JavaScript Framework An approachable, performant and versatile framework for building web user interfaces
Next.js: Next.js is an open-source web development framework built on top of Node.js enabling React-based web applications functionalities such as server-side rendering and generating static websites.

Congrats, you have almost finished frontend part, all you need is practice now. Lets get into backend now!

🔗 Back End:-

Backend refers to the server side of an application and everything that communicates between the database and the browser.

Learn any Programming Languages like:

#1. Python: Python is one of the most popular programming languages. It also provides us frameworks like Django and Flask.

#2. JavaScript: It is used for both front End and back end. JavaScript provides frameworks like Node.js to work on backend.

#3. PHP: PHP is a server-side scripting language designed specifically for web development.

This are some of the most popular backend languages used in Web Development!

🔗 Backend Frameworks:

Node.js: Well, Node.js isn’t a framework exactly but it helps for executing JavaScript in backend if used with Express middleware.
Django: A Python framework to work upon web. There is also Flask but Django is more advanced than flask.

With a backend language, you would need a database which you can use to store data & make your website dynamic!

🔗 Databases:-

MongoDB: It is NO SQL database that provides you with numerous prominent features.
MySQL: It is fast and high-performance database that provides better scalability, usability, and reliability.
