Becoming a full stack developer means mastering both front-end (client side) and back-end (server side) technologies. It’s a valuable and versatile skill set that allows you to build entire web applications independently.

Here’s a common learning path for aspiring full stack developers:

1. Start with the Basics

• HTML/CSS: Learn structure and styling.
• JavaScript (JS): Understand variables, functions, DOM, and events.

2. Front-End Frameworks

• React (most popular), or alternatives like Vue or Angular.
• Learn component-based architecture and state management.

3. Version Control

• Use Git and GitHub to manage and track your code.

4. Back-End Fundamentals

• Learn a server-side language like Node.js, Python (Flask/Django), or PHP.
• Understand REST APIs, routing, authentication.

5. Databases

• SQL (PostgreSQL, MySQL) or NoSQL (MongoDB).
• Learn CRUD operations and data modeling.

6. Deployment

• Use Heroku, Vercel, or Netlify for simple deployment.
• For cloud scalability, learn Docker, AWS, or Firebase.

7. Build Real Projects

Create full stack apps: e-commerce, blogs, dashboards, or booking systems. Include authentication, user roles, and real-time features.

This path takes time, but full stack developers are in high demand across startups, agencies, and enterprise teams.
