Hi All,
Can we call ourselves (us, LabVIEW Application Developers/Engineers) proudly as "Full Stack Developers" (in the Agile world terminology), since most of the times, we develop & integrate an entire application from scratch, with a fairly wide functional knowledge of most of the (if not all) modules/subsystems of the application?!
I expect all your views & opinions, and more light on the topic!
That is a term with no defined meaning from what I can tell. The first I heard of a stack was the OSI 7-Layer model that is also called a network stack in its abbrieviated form we find today. That term seems to be associated with web-development which goes with the network stack idea. Now how much you have to understand each of those layers... show me a software developer that can reciet "source, destination, and protocol" (ethernet packet) of what is being put on the physical wire can define a subnet mask while standing up right up to the presentation layer... there is some hand waving a going on!
May just as well claim to be a "hacker" if you ask me. Back in the day hackers was someone that destroyed golf course and then later banged their head against something like a video game, or cracking a password and now is seems to describe someone that avoids security protections and steal people's bank accounts.
So yeah you can claim to be a Full-stacker but I would have a song and dance ready to go with it if I put that on a resume.
