The What
Full-Stack Development, the version I mean.
The phrase has been used to mean a lot of things. Here's the version I'm offering you.
“Full-stack” used to mean “writes both the frontend and the backend.” That was a useful definition in 2014. It is no longer enough.
The version I'm offering is broader. It means: one operator who can take a vague business problem, draw the system around it, brand it, design it, build it, deploy it, instrument it, and keep iterating on it — without having to schedule a meeting with five other specialists first.
That's only possible right now because agentic coding assistants have eaten the parts of the job that used to require a team. The leverage is real and it's newly available. Read the agentic piece for the long form.
