Learning- Grapevine

Hello all, I am a frontend developer (angular). I have 2+ yrs of experience, I want to transition into backend dev. But getting confused in which framework to choose, like spring boot, node, golang framework, django, flask etc.
Since I don't have any experience in backend work, will it be a problem for me. Any other issues which I might face? Please guide.

How to transition into backend development?

Frontend Engineer

I'm a 2nd year student. Teaching myself native iOS app development + algorithmic problem solving + core CS subjects. Now I have exactly 6 months left before the summer internship cycle starts. Turns out there aren't many iOS focused internships out there and I would very much like to future proof my intern prospects. 
What do you ,experienced folks, suggest I learn so that I can not only make decent projects but also contribute and learn while interning. 
Right now I'm inclined towards learning 
Backend development in Java+Spring Boot.
If you have any other suggestions, kindly send them my way. 
Also to the folks who work with Java/Spring Boot, what level of complexity of projects would be the bare minimum to leave a good impression? 
Yes, I'm simultaneously working on my algorithmic problem solving skills as well :)

What to learn? : Sophomore Edition

Software Developer

Hey all,

I am currently working in the automation testing team at TCS as a fresher. Previously, I have experience with C++ (Data Structures and Algorithms) and Python (Django). I am now looking to transition into a full stack developer role but am a bit confused about which tech stack to choose.

Being in this industry for so long, what would be your advice on which tech stack offers better opportunities, competitive salaries, and remote work options?

Thank you for your time and guidance.

Seeking mentor/suggestion

Hi guys, I am currently working in a SAAS startup as a backend Engineer. Tech stack: MERN, AWS, little bit of GenAI now.

I know most big companies use Java springboot for their backend, so I'm thinking to learn it is I want to switch later. Or should I go for golang as it's becoming very hot in recent times. Or should I continue with NodeJS? Let me know your suggestion.

I have worked on little front end development as well.

Systems Architect

Posting again for better reach.

Hi, I'm working as a Frontend Dev for the past 3 years. Have good understanding and in-depth knowledge of things in JavaScript, React. 
Mentored folks/peers, cracked couple of offers from startups and other companies in the past. 
However, in my initial days I always wanted to be an ANDROID DEVELOPER, learnt Java, Kotlin Android Concepts till MVVM approach. 
Nowadays, as the Frontend domain is getting more cluttered, I'm thinking to move to Android domain considering the competition would be lesser there. 
Or start REACT NATIVE. 
Need some suggestion here. 
TIA

Switch to native Android development

Software Engineer

I'm trying to get back at coding and is unable to decide between the following:

- Backend (Springboot - have tried a basic application to build crud APIs)
- Android Dev (native, have built few very basic apps using Java and published them)
- Web Full stack (have some experience with ERN as of now)


I'm unable to choose which one to focus on and not being able to take a decision is just resulting in procrastination. I know it would be better to just jump into something and go with the flow, but I'm unable to. 

Please help me out folks! 

I'm currently in a non coding role because of choice, but have always loved development and used to do it until I started working full-time (still tried a few things on the side). 

Haven't really figured out what's next, but if it works out, I would switch to an engineering role (either internally or to a new company)

Program Manager

Joining a new company, here I have to get command on Java Spring boot and Angular. Till now I have mostly worked in Python/Django/GraphQL so don't know much TS or Java 🥲

+ I am a very slow reader so documentation will take a lot of time for me.

If you know any good (latest updated) resource, that would be of great help :D

Best Spring boot and Angular Tutorial?

I'm a 2023 grad, and gained 6 months of experience in RPA, specifically Power Automate and Apps. 
However, I'm facing a lack of growth in my current role, as the projects as less.

I've become comfortable with my current situation, receiving a consistent salary and doing wfh, but now I'm concerned about the future and the stagnation of my skill set.

I've decided to upskill myself with a more relevant tech stack. I'm confused between opting for 
1. Java backend with Spring Boot.
2. MERN stack. 
3. Upkill in power automate, apps. 

As a fresher, I'm unsure which path to take. Any advice would be appreciated.

Confusion hai, solution pata nahi🥲

RPA Developer

I'm planning to learn backend.
1. After backend basics, which language and framework should I start with
2. Should I have to learn front end technologies too? 

From google getting very generic response.

Blunt advice

I am reactjs developer. I want to upskill myself im thesa hard time. 
I saw on JD that companies prefer who know more then one library  and framework like if you are applying for reactjs the for brownie points u should know angular or Veu.js
So should i go learn other framework or should I learn Backend technologies.
What should i choose if i want to grapes a good package.

Upskilling

For the past 1.5 yrs, I have been working for a legacy product and hence didn't learn any new technologies. This job was right out of college and hence I didn't pick this. Entire takeaway from 1.5 yrs was 
1.  Simple Java(version 8) code (no frameworks)
2. SVN for version control
3. Dealt with millions of lines of code and hundreds of services in one single file. 

No new technologies, no cloud, no databases. 

But I am very confident and fluent in Data Structures and Algorithms ( Masters in Theory CS from top IIT). What shall I learn next to keep up with the IT industry? I don't have any particular interest towards say DevOps, BigData. I just like to solve problems.  Please advice.

Want to upgrade myself

Hello community,

This post is for getting guidance/opinion on the role switch from support role to development role. I really need help from fellow colleagues and exp professionals to proceed further.

So, I had 2.5 years of experience in SAP domain and recently I have switched internally (within the org) to the software engineering team that has complete back end work to do for a foreign client. Tech-stack is Java 17, Eclipse Jersey, MySQL, MongoDB, Azure Cloud and some other technologies too.

Parallelly I have been a part of an online platform for software engineering courses (eg. Bosscoder etc), where I learnt DSA, spring boot, HTML, CSS and JavaScript with React framework. The front end engg. part is not covered yet, but a part of the curriculum.

Now my doubt is, I am planning to work for some months here and in my resume, stretch the starting time of the SWE role,  to shadow down the SAP experience. Like 4-5 months experience shown as a year or so. Tell me if it can be a good strategy to reduce barriers of not having experience to join SDE roles in prod-based MNCs. (I know, that I will have to showcase deserving skills, based on experience, in the next company to get an offer, but still!)

Secondly, can the backend framework (Jersey) become a barrier to the job switch to java spring boot roles. Some people told me that experience matters and not the frameworks. I need ur opinions.

Lastly, I am recruited as a Senior software engineer, I will have to prove my worth not just to other companies, but  internally within the team. How can I learn more in less time, to equalise the skills with the job role, not 100% but even 60-70% would work. Where to start, what to take care?!

Job Switch: Seeking help

Currently learning Springboot/Java because I want to shift to it from my current techstack. Done with the basics but I prefer to learn while doing projects. Can anyone please suggest what projects I can do that will help me to improve but also something I can put on my resume? Thanks!!

Springboot Java Projects Suggestions

I am currently employed in a startup where I work in the frontend part of the application written in Angular. How should I approach backend development. Is this even needed or just FE knowledge is enough for EM/architect roles.
