Discussion on: Is it good or bad to be all over the place with dev technologies?

I like making the backend of web applications, that's I like to do the most.
One part is curiosity, the other is that even for less experienced developers like me, the market already expects a lot. I've seen positions that requires all the technologies I mentioned (except for Flutter, too young for that), then, yes, FOMO strikes.

I'm starting to feel that way about full-stack development although I'm just not that good at creating layouts, it is a creative work that I was never good at, but dealing with Angular is not uncomfortable for me. I think now that know HTML and CSS a little bit is good enough.

That's true what Ben said and I think that's what makes me test a lot of databases. I realized that our company's applications have the database as bottleneck most of the time, I'm trying to solve this problem, including changing the database if necessary.

I'm interested in the entire stack too but I specialize on the server side of things.

It's always a struggle :D

Optimizing (and hence saving money) your company's data layer seems a good goal for 2019 ;-)
