Full-Stack doesn’t indicate competence. A good developer will write good software. When the task is building a nice GUI, he will. When it’s building a performant datalayer he will also. Refusing to work on stuff outside ones comfort zone may indicate mediocrity. Personally I always do what has the most positive impact for my team and my clients. In the end frontend and backend is still just software - input-processing-output. The technical details can be learned quickly. The proper mindset to learn effectively may not be acquired so easily tho…
