FED is finished . i would suggest moving into something with higher barrier to entry.

last 4 FED my company hired are ex-sales/ex-whatever bootcampers (yes my company is cheap).

remote working is the final nail.

still few good FED jobs but you have 10,000s expert leetcoders fired by faang to compete.



Not really, it's evolving for sure. But maybe you say this because your company's front-end is simple, I've seen complex systems that require specific knowledge of FED, not just general engineering. There are companies who like to separate FED and BED to get more narrow expertise


What do you mean by FED?


Front End Development


I assume front end developer.


I am amazed people are still getting jobs as FED


Why are you amazed? There are many complex front ends out there.


The corporate world is still in large part using Angular - it's a niche nowadays, but a safe one considering that bootcampers usually pick React.


What do you mean? Who are they hiring instead? Or do you mean full-stack is the bare minimum now?
