r/FullStackDevelopers

I’m currently learning the MERN stack, but I’m confused about whether I should continue with it or switch to Java Full Stack development. I really need some guidance.

I completed my Engineering in Information Technology, but I still don’t have a job. Right now, I’m learning the MERN stack, but one question keeps coming to my mind: Will this stack help me get a job in the current market? In this AI era, many people say that the MERN stack is losing its value, and that makes me feel confused and overwhelmed.

I would really appreciate advice from people who are already working in the industry or from those who have good knowledge and understanding of the current tech market.

How do you actually test a voice AI agent without calling it yourself every time?

So we've been working on a voice bot that handles customer calls and honestly the testing part has been brutal. We were literally calling the thing ourselves to check if it broke after every change.

Eventually we just wrote a framework that synthesizes fake caller audio, pipes it into the agent, and checks if the response is sane — latency, hallucinations, whether it handles interruptions, etc. Runs locally against a SQLite db, no cloud stuff.

It connects over websockets, can mock twilio streams, works with elevenlabs and vapi agents too. You can also plug in ollama as the judge so the whole thing runs offline.

We open sourced it: https://github.com/unforkopensource-org/decibench

Curious how others here handle this. Are you just vibing and hoping production doesn't break or is there a better workflow I'm missing?

Please please please give me your suggestions

I am doing intern from last 4-5 months in a company and they are open to give me full time. I am currently in last semester of B.Tech but I got 1 backlog which I will clear in Dec 2026. Hr or any person never asked me about backlog and CGPA score during hiring. Only one time during intern a senior developer asked and share my score but I didn't tell about backlog. So when I get full time what documents they will check ??? Will they find my backlog??? Or if they did what I can say ??

What are solutions do I have???

Should I give some edited documents? Is there any option to crosscheck???

MacBook Air M5 as a main device

Hello everyone! I’m thinking about buying a 13-inch MacBook Air M5 with 24GB RAM and a 1TB SSD.

I’m a frontend developer, and sometimes I also do full-stack development. I often use IDEs/code editors such as Cursor and PhpStorm, Figma, and occasionally Docker. I also use Claude Code and Codex quite a lot.

I’ve never owned a MacBook before — I’ve used Windows my whole life. But now I want to try switching to macOS. I like the MacBook Air because it’s lightweight and relatively affordable. Most of the time, I work from home with an external monitor and keyboard.

Do you think the 13-inch MacBook Air M5 would be enough as my main work device, or should I consider getting a MacBook Pro instead?

What to do now in 2026 as a third year Student

Hello, I want to be a full-stack web developer. My third year is starting after 2 months. I thought I knew HTML, CSS, Python, and C++, but after going through the internet, I got to know that I don't know even a single important thing that will lead me to an internship or placement, and now I don't know what to do. I feel stuck because my placements will be starting from next year, and I don't know where to start or what to study. I also feel like I have wasted my last 2 years on unnecessary things. As I got to know about The Odin Project, it will take at least 12 months if I start now. I searched multiple things, and now some say this will make you placement-ready, while some say this video will. I have a 2-month summer leave for now. Can someone tell me what I should study, what I should do in these 2 months and after that, and from where I should study, which will lead me to an internship or placement?

Hi, I’m Naum Marcirio, a graduated Software Engineer and a developer passionate about creating high-impact solutions focused on performance, accessibility, and responsiveness. I have hands-on experience as a Full-Stack Developer, with a primary focus on Front-End (React, TypeScript, Tailwind) and Back-End (Node.js/Express and basic Java Spring Boot).

I have a strong foundation in Quality Assurance, utilizing Jest, Playwright, and Cypress for automated testing. My technical stack also includes working with databases such as PostgreSQL, SQL Server, and SQLite, as well as REST API validation via Postman and Bruno. I utilize Git/GitHub for version control and Docker for containerization to ensure consistency across different environments. I am driven by delivering clean code, fluid interfaces (Figma), and scalable, high-performance solutions.

I am constantly seeking to learn new technologies, libraries, and frameworks, while continuously solidifying my current knowledge. I pride myself on being flexible and adaptable to new challenges.

During my Software Engineering degree, I gained exposure to:

- Machine Learning with Python

- Data Structures & Design Patterns

- Requirements Engineering

- Game Development

- Mobile Development (React Native and Kotlin)

- Computer Networking

My English is at an intermediate level, supported by real-world experience working in multicultural environments for a U.S.-based company, where I focused on creating Landing Pages (WordPress/Elementor) and Interface Prototyping in Figma (UI/UX).

Looking for Fullstack Developer | Long-term | Hosting/SaaS Project

🔴 EUROPEAN UNION ONLY 🔴

Hey,

I’m currently building a hosting platform focused on gameservers (primarily Minecraft), with plans to expand into rootservers and other services later

The project is still in an early stage, but the core direction, infrastructure base and concept are already clearly defined

What i’m looking for:

  • Fullstack developer (strong in backend + system thinking)
  • Comfortable with APIs, auth, system design and integrations
  • Experience with Docker / hosting-related systems is a big plus
  • Someone who thinks long-term and cares about building things properly

Important:

This is a profit-share based long-term project

That means:

  • Higher risk at the beginning
  • But real upside if the project succeeds

You wouldn’t just be “a developer”, but a core part of the project:

  • involved in technical decisions
  • helping shape the system and architecture
  • bringing in your own ideas and improving things

This is not a typical boss/worker setup, but a proper collaboration building something together long-term

About me:

  • Based in Germany
  • Handling business, structure and strategy
  • Working with a sysadmin on infrastructure
  • Goal is to build a serious long-term company, not a quick project

If this sounds interesting to you, feel free to reach out

We can just have a quick chat, get to know each other a bit and see if it’s a good fit from both sides

Discord: qlkevin15
or just DM me here : )

Want to become a full stack developer but CSS feels boring

I want to become a full stack developer, but learning CSS is honestly making me freak out.

I’m doing great with JavaScript. JavaScript feels interesting, but CSS just feels like fixing alignment and moving boxes around all day.

How much CSS do you actually need in real jobs as a full stack developer? Do you use it daily or mostly just basic stuff?
