- Are you a front-end developer or back-end developer?
- Are you a PHP person, or a .NET person?
- Are you pro-open-source or 100% against open-source?
Given how fluid and ever changing web based IT solutions have become, it still amazes me that people and companies attempt to label us and put us in these predefined boxes.
Steve Balmer once stood in front of me on a stage shouting “developers, developers, developers”. It was an oddly impassioned call to arms that delivered his point, but missed the end goal.
The goal in software design ( be it desktop, mobile or web based ) must be improved Usability. I state this not to jump on the latest bandwagon, but because I am often asked how I can be so evangelistic about new web based technologies and yet rarely do you see any code normally associated with other front or back end developers.
