How to Become a Backend Developer in 2023? [Full Roadmap]

[@codedamn]

100K club! Thank you for the support. If you're looking to become a backend/full-stack developer, there has been no better option than learning it interactively by building projects and discussing it with others along the way. Checkout my full-stack learning path: cdm.sh/learn-backend

[@jundurahman1]

Wow!. I think I found my favourite coder!. You have explained really well. Because about 10 years ago, I did networking Certs and I felt I just touched the surface in the ICT world.lately, I have been thinking to learn coding and perhaps be a backend developer. So your video opened my eyes. Kudos for that mr @codedamn.

A lot of frontend roadmaps out there but finally a proper backend roadmap. Helped me find some gaps in my knowledge. Thanks.

Sir which is the most popular/adopted language when it comes to backend?

[@mohdnawazishalam3255]

@@tanmaythaker2905 nodejs is famous among startups Java is popular among big projects in mostly big companies Django is also popular among startups

[@sudiptacoachingcentre4118]

Really

[@AbhishekKumar-fl8bw]

@@tanmaythaker2905 Choose between Node(JavaScript) or Java or Python. Node is popular with newer startups while the enterprise world is ruled by Java. Python is also a good choice & added bonus it gives you opportunity to switch into Data Science domain if you feel like.

[@anindyachakraborty7886]

This is by far the most descriptive and informative video for budding backend developers. Huge thanks for such a video!

[@KrishnenduKDG]

The question of every Aspiring Web Dev in their phase of transforming themselves from building static websites and some dynamic websites(Using some APIs) to making your own API and consuming that one through the Frontend.... Just Loved it...

[@SethWilson]

With technologies like NextJS and Lambda functions, it’s getting harder and harder to separate frontend from backend. Seems like it’s getting more and more important to have at least some knowledge of the full stack, even if your focus is in a specific area.

[@rc-wingman5719]

You need at least 5 years of education. Having a very good knowlage of IT is the base!!! Every topic in this Video is „not so hard“ to Understand as long as you don’t have to write complex algorithems as your main job. The hard thing is to keep up with the 20-50 Part Puzzle… new frameworks, libaries and your companies Technologie … to name a view.

[@nikhilspace8311]

@@rc-wingman5719 5 years is too long . I think 9-12 months of dedicated learning should make one good enough to get into coding and build something.

[@kennethmcausland2360]

@@nikhilspace8311 I'd say at least double that. It's more like 2-3 years for backend exclusively.

[@riturajranjan2072]

I have completed the front-end roadmap and am confident in it. But then it was really difficult to find topics to learn for back-end development. I found out and learnt basics with nodejs. But now I'm gonna follow this roadmap and enhance my back-end skills. I love upskilling♥️
