If you can do everything, you are now a full stack developer. That tells people you can do more than build a Web page.

Generally speaking, my role is ".Net Developer" due to the C# .Net being the main skill required, but its rarely all you do. Javascript is a big component these days, and as it's been pointed out, so many client side technologies to choose from (most not Microsoft). So will there come a day where we no longer call ourselves .Net developers? There has always been a gap between web developers and .Net developers both in skill set and rates of pay. I suspect web developers (technology wise) have caught up or are catching up. (in both areas?) A simple static website is one thing, but an actual web application requires a lot of skill. No difference to the backend stuff. I've also struggled with MVC being the right fit for web applications now. I'm working on my own project on the side and what started as MVC is now pretty much a SPA hosted in the MVC framework. If I was to start it over now, I'd make it an Angular 2 front end with WebAPI (because I know C#) for the backend. Will that change down the track? Perhaps the backend could end up something non .Net like node or something. Suddenly I'm no longer a Microsoft developer... so what do I call myself? cheers Stephen ________________________________ From: ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com<mailto:ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com> <ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com<mailto:ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com>> on behalf of Michael Ridland <rid...@gmail.com<mailto:rid...@gmail.com>> Sent: Tuesday, 7 June 2016 9:15:42 AM To: ozDotNet Subject: Re: [OT] Looking for work I find it strange that there wouldn't be many jobs with MVC, there must be a large amount of codebases still using MVC?
