HTML, CSS, JS. With some frameworks and pre-processors. And some server-side language.

To add to what Mickel Sánchez said, the server side could be NodeJS, C#, PHP, etc in the form of RESTful API service. I'd also include databases like MySQL, MS SQL Server, MongoDB, to name a few. A few other clients would be good, such as mobile apps to consume the same RESTful API service.

Morpheus That article does a great job of describing the many facets of what I focus on as a fullstack polyglot developer. It's almost too much to describe the many areas I'm involved in as it relates to aligning development efforts with business objectives, devops and infrastructure, user experience, unit/integration test automation, continuous integration / deployment, production/staging environment setup, design and architecture, and so on. Coding, on any one part of an application, is such a small part of being a fullstack polyglot developer.

For me, starting way back in 1996, I gradually picked up many skills over time as many of these new technologies were being created or refined. So, it's difficult for me to gauge how long it took to develop into these skills. By the time the term "fullstack" was a thing, I was already fitting the description for several years. My guess is it depends on the individual as to how long it might take to be proficient in all of these skills. I believe some could make great progress over a year if given the opportunity to work with a great team of experienced developers on various projects. Otherwise, it might be difficult to accelerate or get the proper exposure.

Klaylton Fernando I don't have any idea on that , might be years but many times the responsibilities of a full stack developer varies from company to company. for example although this position requires a lot of experience as already mentioned by David. but few of my friends have their designation stated as full stack developer with only one to two years experience in the company. but mostly when I see job description of full stack developers it demands ton of experience that is not possible within just one or two years. ( but again I don't know much just speculating)

I had this doubt myself, this article was still in my bookmarks. I used to think of full stack developer designation lightly https://www.laurencegellert.com/2012/08/what-is-a-full-stack-developer/

Learning all this certainly requires a lot of time in the studies. How much time on average does all this learning take? Sorry if the text seems confusing, I'm using a translator.
