Posted by dWhat is a Full Stack Developer?
The full stack developer definition is “someone who can work on both the back-end and front-end of systems.” Therefore, they can develop fully fledged platforms (with databases, servers and clients) which don’t need other applications to function.

The Full Stack Engineer job description includes using a range of different technologies and languages (such as Java, JavaScript, HTML, PHP, C#) to develop applications. Full Stack Developers approach software holistically since they cater to both user experience and functionality.
Full Stack Developer duties include:
- Participating in the design and creation of scalable software
- Writing clean, functional code on the front- and back-end
- Testing and fixing bugs or other coding issues
