Blunt advice

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.

If you're looking for jobs, just go for Java. Don't even bother looking at new stuff like rust.

out of curiosity why didn't you suggest golang?

@newton I suggested the lang which has the most demand in the Indian market. I haven't used Go personally, I use node & rust at work. If you don't like Java at first, you can try node or python.

Anything like node/react , simple php, livewire or some other front end.

The bigger question is what's the domain you want to go in?

What's the tech stack you wish to learn ? What do you want to do in the whole development lifecycle?

open to learn any back-end tech stack... but should have jobs in market. Can you suggest 1 or 2. Also should I have to learn front-end too?

Top of the mind

Mean/mern/mevn stack should be the best way to start and go ahead. Ruby on Rails - there's a market but not seen much enthusiasm as of now. Maybe I'm not looking at the right places but these 4 should be good enough

Microsoft and some enterprise companies are using dotnet c# for backend. I agree with the comment that java has good job opportunities imo.

Yes if you want not to limit yourself please go full stack. Knowledge of Front end is basically an add-on for you not the company. Companies will priortize people with full stack knowledge rather than only the back end. That said , there are jobs only for backend related activities.

React or Spring Boot

I have joined a startup as Backend Developer Intern. I get a stipend of 6K/ Month. They said they will offer full time position after internship, but the salary will be 10-12K.

The only good thing is I am directly working on a live pro...
