What do you wanna become? / What are you?

1. PHP Developer
2. Python Developer
3. Node.Js Developer
4. JavaScript Developer
5. Java Developer
6. Android Developer
7. Other (please mention in comment)

Unity3D Developer. Although it would seem that there's little to none demand for that where I live 😅

7. Dotnet

I'm everything except the top two on that list, as well as C/CPP, and C#

Python or PHP with a decent framework..

7. Game developer/Game designer.

Or 4. JavaScript/Frontend if 7 doesn't work out.

C#

Mainly 1. (PHP developer)

1,2,4,5,7

7: Salesforce developer in training.

Am: Linux support engineer
Wanna become: php dev, cyber security professional (ofsec aka pentester), music producer/dj

@linuxxx ahw 😁 it's nice to know you still want to be a PHP developer

@incognito I still dev php in my free time 😁

I'm 3 (node.js) and 4 (js). Wanna become 7 (linux drivers developer)

@linuxxx I know but that doesn't necessarily mean you want to become one, let me know if I could help you with anything related to php 😘

2,3,5,6,7

7 being an Ai developer or Game developer. Gotta get a stronger math foundation first though and that calculus book has been staring at me from the other side of the room for weeks. Sigh

7, ocaml

I want to be 1, 5 & 6 (primarily 5). I am, to an incomplete extent, 1, 4, 5 & 6.

Came to the company to become C++ developer, but now am on my way to 4. because of the "cloud"

@AlexDeLarge couldn't agree more. Most if this stuff overlaps anyways in terms of the whole technical theme: design, test, refactor and repeat. Fall in love with the process then you can embrace almost any stack and project.

... unless it's assembly

69. Millionaire / Broke AF.

Any love for computer engineers?
Studying to be one, and I wanna design and build embedded / digital system!

I want to get a physics degree one day, and work with quantum computers and stuff, or maybe write the programs physicists(?) use to do their research (like the program the LIGO research team used to discover black hole mergers).

It always seems like all the credit is given to the physicists without a word about the programmers that without them the discovery wouldn't have happened. I don't see how you can measure the mass of black holes with your fingers.

I am 1, 3, 4, 5
I want to be 7 Vigil developer

@Alice no you are our prinkcess

Embedded system engineer...
Or computer engineer.

I am immensely enjoying the learning of cpp right now, and embedded systems fit well into the parts of development that I enjoy most.

Edit: am an allround webdev / ad-hoc sysadmin

I'm 5 & 2 & a bit of 6

I'd like to be: Better 6 and 7: GameDev, FullStack maybe

I'm 4, 5, 6 and learning game dev

3. Node JS
4. Javascript

@Alice who said I'm sharing you with others.

@Alice I am gonna have a serious talk with @TheOthers :3

3, 4, 5, 6, 7 - OCaml/Reason

PHP and .NET developer, unfortunately the majority of the .NET I write is VB.NET...

If only I can ++ @AlexDeLarge comment a thousand times. That's exactly how devs should think, just enjoy what you do and learn as much as possible, don't go after titles, we've seen too many people with titles and they suck at what they do

Systems programmer.
I like learning things from scratch.

2 and 4

C# /.NET programmer, I'd love to move towards .NET Core, but I'm afraid it will take some more time for companies to adapt to that...

Php, node, JavaScript

Currently having fun with Android development 🤓

@gitpush Some people just want to write "Hello world" on multiple language

c# / unity3d / multimedia / game developer.

is what i am and want to be.

@Agred try upwork.
area-agnostic, contains lots of crap, but after a month or two you can find a few good jobs even for unity3d in there, and once you get those done, the clients will be coming back to you when they need something again.

in time, you can colllect a few guys who will rotate in and out with new tasks for you, ensuring a relatively stable stream of work.

@devTea 25 languages to be precise XD

I'm PHP developer. DON'T JUDGE ..
Though PHP is love but i want to learn droid development so that i can get familiar with handy devices.

2,3,4 and embedded C/C++

@incognito is there any scope of it??

@cursee 😂😂

Right now I'm in the team that takes care of build and deployment automation. A DevOps engineer on steroids, if you will.

We use whatever fits the job: Bash, JavaScript, PHP, Python, Java, Groovy, Go…

7. Software architect

7: C++, SQL

5, becoming 2 ❤️

Started in Java
Continued in C# and Python
Jumped to PHP
That lead to JavaScript
Which later on lead to Node.js

Now, in my experence it doesn’t matter the language, the question is “do you know how to programm?”

Many times in my experience, knowing a programming language does not equates to know how to program

@samuelpearson 👏

@sharktits your best friend @oudalally

i'm php and i want python, bash , pearl & ruby :B <3

5. Java developer

@devTea idk whyd u say that but i share his views yeah

Data science, mostly r/python

Wanted be a python developer but now I'm node and JavaScript developer

C++ developer. Although I code tons of prototypes in Python, and I like working with C# (no .Net, just C with managed classes)!

I'd like to be a mathematical developer (numerical simulations, either with games, fluid dynamics, etc)!

Unfortunately it's a difficult market, so I'll keep implementing algorithms in C++ :P

7. Game Developer

Secondary: Android Developer

Just a great developer.

Am: cpp dev (GUI Qt app maintain).
Want to be a 3d technology dev ( opengl / vulkan )

@Midnigh-shcode Yeah, it sounds great but Im afraid that being self taught with no supervision hasn't made me good enough to work as a. freelancer in game dev. I'll think about it, though. Thanks!

@Agred give it a try man

@Agred then you haven't been teaching yourself long enough yet.

you make mistakes. you think about how to avoid them next time. you experiment with few solutions.

you figure out the best one.
repeat.

all the knowledge humanity has is self-taught, self-discovered. it's in our genes.

why should you be unable of using the same process (and not even the same, you've got all the existing knowledge at your fingertips to help you) to learn a tiny fraction of it? ;)

also, self-learning is about half of the whole programming process, always. so training it as much as you can is a pretty good idea anyways ;)

also also: it made me andmany other people here good enough to do whatever we wanted to do/are doing.
and we're not special, or at least not any more special than you ;)

C/Rust developer. Because Electron is way too big for GUI applications.
