jflima577ySome concepts you learn as frontend you can apply to backend and vice-versa, and it's never bad to learn new things

mt3o19147yDon't give up, be proactive, look for ways to engage in backend stuff, name yourself 'fullstack' as stated earlier.
I was php+html5. Now i'm java+who knows what. Last week I digged into Jenkins and Docker. Because I could explain why I need this and what's the profit for company. -
I didnt like frontend either (css ðŸ˜) but when the new css techniques came (flexbox, flex grid) it bece bearable. Especially when real frontenders come up to you to ask how something CSS related works.
I can now call myself fullstack like @padsjt said.
I still prefer backend but I dont mind doing frontend. As long as I dont have to support browsers that dont support flexbox.

Just got into a company as a fresher. Have never liked doing frontend (no offence). They are making me do frontend. Now, I'll forever bear the tag of a frontend developer. Can't quit due to money issues. Don't know where life will take me.
