Need help in switching position

Hi folks, I have 2.5 yr of experience in react native and JavaScript combined with current CTC of 12 LPA. Few months of experience in frontend. Currently I want to switch from my react native position to frontend position without taking a pay cut. How much is it different from react native and where should I be focusing the most. Reason for switching: I am not comfortable in current organisation with the way management works and I am also tired of react native.

Disclaimer: Not a web guy. I am assuming by FE you mean web FE, this would really depend on the framework that an org is using. If other orgs are using React as their FE, IMO the major difference would be CSS. The language would remain the same JS/TS. Another difference would be how the web works in general, local storage, DOM manipulation, redirection to pages instead of screens etc. And also you gotta learn HTML. But the react/redux/JS knowledge would be transferable. Would recommend making webpages in react and host them somewhere to show your React skills. Also make sure you know how to center a div 😉

Get good at html, css and js. I never had a frontend dev do anything more than figma file and three.js + css code! Also much of the the concepts are same and you’ll still have to do all work as a frontend developer too.!

Switch to backend from front end.

Any one here who after certain years of experience in front end (web or mobile) switched to backend or vice versa. If yes, did your existing org. provided you the opportunity or you got it outside? I am current working on native android with 7+ years of experience and I want to switch to backend. Any suggestions?

Seeking Advice on Job Switch and Expected CTC

I am a Frontend Developer with 3.5 years of experience, currently working remotely with a product-based client (product- BGV) through Eteam. The role offers great learning opportunities with the latest tech stack (React, Node.js), but it's a contract-based position on third-party payroll.

Hi everyone, I am working in a service based giant of India for the past 2.4 years on Ruby on Rails. Ruby is a dying language & I need to switch as my salary is lower than what peons probably earns so need some guidance. 1. I am wanting to switch to Frontend completely and then some backend in a new company in MERN stack, what salary can I expect for my YoE ? 2. With all layoffs going, how can i make myself somewhat immune to these situations so that I don't have to search for a new job every few months ? 3. Starting frontend and then will be doing backend as well (becoming Full stack) is my choice of MERN stack correct ? Thanks in advance to all...
