Ask HN: How hard is to switch from back end to front end programmer?
4 points by betimd on June 18, 2017 | hide | past | favorite | 2 comments
Considering myself as software architect (knowing all technologies from databases to APIs) how hard is to switch to frontend programmer (JS + Vue or React + HTML + CSS) and what would your suggestion to read / follow?

I noticed that more and more freelance development jobs (at least in the Netherlands for regular non-rockstar-developers) are asking for full-stack skills. So being only a back-end developer makes it a tad harder to find a gig.

So I suppose I am saying: good question, I wonder about the same thing.
