How to become a better software engineer?

When I saw Twitter and LinkedIn most of people titles shows fullstack developer and here I am afraid of calling my self a frontend enginner, because there is so much to learn in each domain itself. Currently, I am working as a Frontend Developer in my current company and each day I am learning something new in Frontend. My question is that, should I continue exploring Frontend in my initial years and gradually explore other domains like backend or devops. Because, I stunned by looking at the Job description of the companies that are hiring even for entry level jobs. I wanted to your thoughts on this, What you do in your company and how you all improve the domain you are working on. You can also share any useful resources too. Thanks

Planning my career as a frontend developer

I have 1.5 YoE as a frontend developer in an early stage startup. I need help with deciding where do I go from here? Do I deep dive into frontend? Do I try to move to full stack? Things to consider: - I am from a non CS background - frontend in India seems to be a bit saturated, especially for entry/mid level roles. I'd appreciate your advice, thanks :)

Transition from Front-end to Back-end role

I joined industry as a front-end engineer back in April, 2022 and now i am feeling like expanding my horizon of skills and start doing backend. Also, I am hearing it from people that there is not much growth in FE in terms of compensation. So, curious to know the views of people here and would be great if someone can guide through. Thanks in advance

Front-end or Back-end or Something else

Hey Devs, I’m currently working on low-code tools and earning 27L/year with 6 years of experience. I’d like to switch to development because I don’t want to stick with low-code tools. Started learning JS, React, NodeJS and other tools such as Docker, K8s and NoSQL stuff as addon. Is it a right path or do I need to start with something else? I have also started building small AI stuff with help of HiggingFace and LangChain. This is just to stay upto date with current trends.
