I learn Python and after some time I started to think about what to do next, which path to choose. I don't like to be front end, I have been in customer service for many years and after two kids I just want peace. I think about backend, maybe security but this channel helps me to understand some things. Thank you
Guys, the first step to becoming any developer is not html & css, its learning the basic concepts like you know the abc 😉 no matter how long it takes. 2-3 months is perfect, no bootcamp before that.
@@alexandrf2428 I'm not a mind-reader, but I'll guess he's referring to UML or psuedocode flowcharts. Basic pre-code planning and easy to find online as they are both first-step methods.
I loved this interview, thank you! The more I study coding, the more I lean toward back-end. He explained it in simple and straightforward terms, I really appreciate that!
First of all, thanks for the video! Second, my sense of humour is broken beyond repair - I couldn't help but imagine crude innuendos implied while you were just calmly talking about the back-end and enjoying it in the first minute. 😅
Hey there, Don. I’m 20 years old, and I also want to become a backend developer. I’m currently learning Python, and want to use it for backend development. My issue is that I see a lot of people using JS. Would it be a bad idea to switch to JS? I have some knowledge about Python and how it works, and have prior experience with it.
Back-end is boring, Back-end is dead. You wont be getting these comments from a back end-dev its cuz they actually do it and the real back-end logic is absolutely not boring but it is challenging so people like to say its boring just to give them an excuse to not touch it. Simple
For some reason there isn't as much interviews about backend as I wish. This one was pretty cool.
Discovered your channel 3 days ago or so. And watched like 5 podcasts already. Great to listen to the developers, invalueable info!
Welcome!
Solid interview. This video was really helpful. I particularly liked the phrase "it's an open book job". Big thanks to you both.
Glad you found it helpful!
Thanks for the insightful content! Very rare to see these type of videos about backend
You're welcome!
Thanks both!
Of course. I'm happy it helped.

on frontend you are not seeing customers. When they mean frontend not meant front desk of company, it is UI of app .
@@blabla-kk8bl most of the offers say other way
Thank Don and Nick fir these wonderful insights.
The interviewee looks like he has the laser focus of a backend developer.
Yea I was like can I be a back-end developer but keep my personality please 🤣

I keep hearing about the basic concepts that should be learned first, but what are they? Where do i get to learn them?

Same, im doing a fall stack bootcamp soon but im gonna lean to back end immediately after
@@passportbro904 How come?

Excellent guide for me. Harder to find info on backend developers. Thank you
I love the work you do, Don. You're greatly appreciated and I hope you know that!!!
amazing podcast. Discovered your channel just now and I am glad!

Such a great interview!!!!!!
Thanks for this informative video!
Very informative interview.
Awesome episode !
There are some jobs (and companies) where backend could be fun, but I htink its so boring. Money is great but its boring.
why does the backend developer look so dead.. kinda makes you think how what you do for a living shapes who you become (no disrespect to the guy)

I’m about to start a backend job. Bit scared that it will
be boring
is it easy to learn coding?
No, but with time and dedication, it's achievable.
sure!
