A word of advice to aspiring young programmers who might be overwhelmed with that list. In my personal experience, the only thing you need to know is programming \\ but know it well. That's what you should focus on. The rest is secondary, technologies and tools come and go. Along the way you will learn other things as you need them.
I've never disagreed with something so much, I'd say the most important thing is the ability to solve problems and that comes from understanding system design from test driven development to scaling parts of a monolith that are in demand to microservices, to why and when you might need to cache a specific service; not just understanding up-time and availability but how to maintain it with load balancers, rate limiters and more. Not to mention, working at scale your code quickly begins to bite you in the back. Writing code is easy, reading it is hard. Learn the basic syntax of a dynamic and static language and then explore different iterations of development by failing. You won't be able to replicate most of the problems that brought these solutions to life but hey creating your own redis server, caching user data on a webpage, implementing pagination, coding functionally, and understanding why you are doing ALL of that makes you much more sellable than knowing a programming language.

The problem isn't that the information isn't out there.. it's that there's SO MUCH and you're overwhelmed with where to start and what's even necessary for the thing you're trying to learn.. I'm not trying to learn everything about 15 languages and go relearn all of statistics and math; I just want to know what portions are relevant to a more narrow subject matter Ex1: Robotics and maybe machine vision or machine learning? - you need these principles and here are different languages or otherwise that can be interchanged. Ex2: want to learn how to do data handling, visualization, and automating manual digital tasks? Do x,y,z.. Ex3: want to learn some local AI stuff, feeding proprietary documentation, schematics, and train your own LLM or otherwise for helping generate technical diagnostics instructions...? Do X,Y,Z
When I started to think that only two professions were combined, a bunch more came along. What I counted here: code backend developer, devops, tester, db developer, mobile app developer, cloud manager, project manager, system architect, {probably 10 more} Of course, the developer must have some knowledge of all these topics. And he will apply them superficially. But no one, no one will ever be great at everything. Even 3 is already too much. This is a map to depression, not a developer profession.
As a data analyst I can tell you that for data analysis you're gonna be using 30% SQL, 60% Python, 40% R and 25% PowerBI and the remaining 4% is C++ (hyper parameter tuning in C++ based packages like STAN or whatever). Maybe Matlab one time. I have had ChatGPT write me some html code for visuals in PowerBI, but I don't know if that really counts.
By the time you finish learning all of this when you are 80 years old you should be able to get a job that pays half of what you were supposed to get and force you to work on a hibrid model
A year ago I would have been completely overwhelmed and discouraged. Now I have familiarity and confidence in approaching each topic at a time gained by continuing to learn. Don’t be discouraged! It’ll come with time!
@@boredcinema209 look up the Odin project on google I’ve been doing that and I’ve learned most of it. In combination with cs50 from Harvard (google it) you get to be pretty well rounded
Hello Thanks for the course .It's been a long time since there was no addition of DevOps Cloud related course in the channel . Pls add OpenShift , Adv K8s , etc course
i agree i was too busy studying all these frameworks and forgot the fundamentals of web development. in the job interview the lead engineer asked me about virtual DOM and cross origin and i completely blanked out
And don't forget that after you've become a good back-end developer, you'll have to become a good front-end developer... (ah yes, we call that full stack).... and that in addition to that, it wouldn't be a bad idea for you to take care of deployment, especially with the new stuff out there you know... the Cloud and all that, it's really quite practical... (ah yes, that's true, we call that devops)... and you know, these days, all the security issues are really important, so you really need to take that into account and train for it too.... (ah yes, that's true, we call that devseccops)..... in the end you've become the whole team of developers on your own but for the same salary.................... Thank you boss.... happy to have been scr*wed 😥😠😧
for freelancing choose php since it's easier to set up unlike node js / python. for getting a job in a startup, node js is fine, maybe go or python as well. for working in big corporations Java is king, c# second place just keep in mind that the market is saturated by the mern stack...
the only difficult thing about setting up node js as backend is only if you use typescript, specifically setting the infinite config file that changes depending the framework you are using. otherwise plain javascript with node is pretty straightforward. Also python is really easy to set up, no syntactical sugar above it,
Hello, I have a big dream of learning Python, I'm Brazilian, but I haven't learned English yet, I would like to waste translating the Python courses that are on your CZcams channel into PT-BR, with the new CZcams tool that translates with THERE. I noticed that some videos already have audio tracks in PT-BR. I'm learning a lot, gratitude to the whole team.
No. You don't need this. I made the same mistake thinking that it was necessary. You will never learn enough to think you know enough for the job. No one can do that. First of all, remember that the "requirements" of the job include everything that comes to mind - "for the future". All the modern words he knows. You really need 5% of it. The second. He doesn't even name the top languages that are used. Only those languages that are now thought of as modern and promising. Not those that are used. Third. Do some small, big, whatever - projects. Make them publicly available and develop. It is the best indicator of your knowledge. Fourthly. Most important. Let your employer pay for your education. If you sit at home and study, you pay. You will still have to learn at work, but you will still be paid for it. No one prevents you from changing your workplace when you have learned something new. I lost a lot of time and money trying to learn everything. I had no one to explain it to me.
@@Andris_Briedis Thank you for this, I was already feeling down watching this. I am fluent in python, and do not know where to go next. Please give me a streamlined guide on what to do to be a good backend dev.
Could you please guide me/us to make a career in field of Data science. Please create a road map or a playlist or anything on CZcams channel which can help me/us to make a profound carrer in data science.
Very informative video! I would actually like to make a personal full-stack project that uses React, Nodejs, Express and MSSQL Server, along with the technologies mentioned in this video like caching, containerization, nginx, etc. in order to develop my backend skills (I already know React). Does anyone know any such project tutorial video/playlist/course, which would be complex enough to understand the nitty-gritty of these technologies? I would really appreciate it if you guys can help out a fellow developer to switch from Frontend to Full-stack development. It's okay if it might involves spending some amount of money on Cloud, hosting fees, etc. while building the project, because I'm guessing if I only build the application in my local machine, that won't be enough. I need to actually deploy it to the cloud to understand these technologies in depth.
I have done about 50% of these but to be honest all you need to learn is what is required for the Job you are applying for, else you will get into the never ending loop of tutorial hell and trauma...
you forgot to mention the backend languages that empowers the 93,4% of the web (PHP, C#, Ruby and Java) you mentioned only the backend. languages that empowers only 4.6% of entire web This makes the video inaccurate
Computer technology changes rapidly, but consider how much of the Internet is still running on older technologies. I would say, yes you may need to learn new technologies after a time, but the knowledge already gained won't be obsolete for decades.
Let me get this right.... You have to manage the data, set up and manage the server, be responsible for server security, design the application, code the application, test the application, maintain the source code for the application, roll out the application, patch the application (a smaller version of test/design/test/check-in/roll-out/test again), scale the application and be on-call 24/7 to keep the application running smoothly. If you add sales in then you can fire the rest of the organization and give yourself a fat raise.
Actually, there’re positions like server administrators, db administrators, security analysts, cloud engineers… Backend devs are supposed to design and implement server side business logic (using efficient practices), debug and test it. If you are enforced to do something else, the company just tries to save on you, making you do someone’s else work for free.
look, it depends on the company and product. startups might need you to do more while big MNCs will require less. some small scale projects might require you to do everything but large scale projects will have defined roles for each thing
@@night23412 yes. However, small projects don’t require a lot compared to enterprise ones. It might be enough just to write code, test, put the environment into container and deploy to, let’s say, digital ocean using git actions. Naturally, 1 or 2 devs could accomplish that task because it doesn’t involve 70% listed in the roadmap we’ve seen here.
Yes lots of big stable companies that actually make money like bank and insurance companies use it. Also for some reason there is less competition from the self taught devs.
What other technologies do you think are important for back end developers to learn?
PHP
C#
Zipkin, New Relic - Tracing and Monitoring for performance optimization.
Monorepo - Just to help organize when projects get big and require some specific dependencies.
ORMs - Prisma, Sqlalchemy etc, speed up writing SQL queries during development and protect rogue DB queries.

As someone who is learning front end currently, the back end looks so much more interesting to me. I can't wait to reach that part of my curriculum!
Sir thank you very much for sharing such a valuable information.
Great video! I'm pleased to note that I have familiarity and experience with everything mentioned!!!
Goodluck to you!
Would love more of these for other roles (data science, data analyst, etc.)
As a data analyst I can tell you that for data analysis you're gonna be using 30% SQL, 60% Python, 40% R and 25% PowerBI and the remaining 4% is C++ (hyper parameter tuning in C++ based packages like STAN or whatever).

Thanks for the course .It's been a long time since there was no addition of DevOps Cloud related course in the channel . Pls add OpenShift , Adv K8s , etc course
Sir can u make full course(playlist, tutorial) for beginners to advanced in backend (Java,php)
for backend also golang, ruby, php, even c++ works very well in any stack.
c++ bros we’re so back
Cool video, thank you!
Could you please create same roadmap for Frontend developers.

Great! thanks for the spanish Audio! we need it in the others videos! :)
Learning the basics of the web is something overlooked by many and will encounter later just to be bamboozled for hours trying to understand it.

why there's no mention of Ruby on Rails at all???
Hi, would you like to make Data Scientist or ML engineer road map? Thanks
Imagine you need to study all those things, just to be obsolete after 5 years and need to learn new and new stuff...
That's life
Imagine learning the same amount of technologies and be obsolete in a year. That's frontend.
@@cristianaraujo9293 correction: that's development to a certain extent, other tech doesn't advance as fast in other fields.
