Web development has become one of the hot topics in the past few years as it doesn’t require a lot of prerequisites to get started with web development.

So in order to overcome this challenge we will be providing you with a complete roadmap to become a full stack developer in 2022 in this article with all the free resources.
Fullstack web development is a combination of both frontend and backend technology. Frontend generally focuses on building highly scalable user interfaces while backend focuses on storing the data in the database securely and retrieving the data from the database and showing it on the screen.
1. Start with Html CSS and Bootstrap
If you are aiming to become a web developer then the first thing you should know is how to build the structure and the design of the webpage. For this, you require two things Html and CSS. You should know about all the basics of both semantic and non-semantic tags in Html. For CSS you should know about how padding, margin, and border tags. Other than that you should also know about some of the most important concepts in CSS like flexbox, grid, and box model in CSS. Bootstrap is a front-end framework that consists of a lot of predefined classes which you can use to build responsive websites very easily.

You should be well versed with dom manipulation, loops, functions, etc in javascript. Other than that you should also practice some of the basic programs like palindrome number, reverse a string, sum of digits, sort the array from ascending to descending, Armstrong number, pattern questions using loops, etc.
Now when you are well versed in understanding the core concepts of javascript you should move towards learning one framework or library of javascript. If you are interested in learning react then it will take you 1 month to grasp all the core concepts of react like functional-based components, class-based components, Context API, state, props, redux, etc.
But if you are interested in learning angular then you need to devote at least 3 -4 months as angular is a framework. For learning angular you should have a very good understanding of learning typescript.

3. Git & CI/CD Deployment
In today’s world, most of the companies use git for managing their codebases so in order to work in a company you should have a very good understanding of how git works and also about the purpose of different commands in git to do a particular task.
Other than that you should also know about CI/CD deployment as in most cases you will use a YAML file to run all the jobs and do continuous integration and continuous deployment rather than doing manual deployment which was done in earlier days.
