Full Stack Developer Without Degree: How to Become One

If you're interested in becoming a Full Stack Developer without a degree, we've put together some tips and resources to help you get started. Learn the Fundamentals The first step to becoming a Full Stack Developer is to learn the fundamentals of coding. You can start with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, which are the building blocks of web development. There are plenty of free resources available online, such as Codecademy and FreeCodeCamp, which offer interactive courses that teach you the basics of web development. Once you have a solid understanding of the basics, you can move on to more advanced topics such as back-end development, databases, and frameworks. You can learn these topics through online courses or by working on personal projects. Build a Portfolio One of the most important things you can do as a Full Stack Developer is to build a portfolio. Your portfolio should showcase your skills and experience and demonstrate your ability to build real-world applications. You c...

Mastering JavaScript: Advanced Techniques and Best Practices for High-Performing Web Applications





A brief history of JavaScript:


From Netscape to Node.js: Tracing the Evolution of JavaScript


JavaScript was created by Brendan Eich in just 10 days in May 1995 while working at Netscape Communications Corporation. Initially, it was called Mocha, then LiveScript, before finally being named JavaScript. It aimed to create an easy-to-use language that could make web pages more dynamic and interactive.

JavaScript's popularity grew quickly, and Microsoft created its own version called JScript. In 1997, a group of companies led by Netscape formed the European Computer Manufacturers Association (ECMA) to create an industry standard for JavaScript. The result was ECMAScript, the official name for the JavaScript language.

Over the years, JavaScript has continued to evolve with new versions, features, and libraries being introduced. In 2009, Ryan Dahl created Node.js, a platform for running JavaScript outside of the web browser. This allowed JavaScript to be used for server-side programming, which expanded its capabilities even further.

Today, JavaScript is one of the most popular programming languages in the world, used for both front-end and back-end web development. Its versatility and accessibility have made it a favourite among developers and a key player in the web development industry.

why it was given to ECMA?

JavaScript was given to ECMA (European Computer Manufacturers Association) in 1997 in order to create a standardized specification for the language. At the time, JavaScript was becoming increasingly popular and widely used, but different implementations of the language by different companies were causing compatibility issues between browsers.

To address this problem and ensure that JavaScript could continue to evolve as a language, Netscape (the original developer of JavaScript) and other companies involved in web development formed a technical committee within ECMA to create a standardized specification for JavaScript, which was named ECMAScript.

By creating a standard specification, different companies could implement the language more consistently, making it easier for developers to write code that would work across different browsers and platforms. The standardized specification also paved the way for future versions of JavaScript to be developed and adopted more easily, leading to the language's continued popularity and success today.

Boundary Traversal of binary tree (DSA)

  Problem Statement :(👈click here for GFG) Given a Binary Tree, find its Boundary Traversal. The traversal should be in the following order:  Left boundary nodes:  defined as the path from the root to the left-most node  ie- the leaf node you could reach when you always travel preferring the left subtree over the right subtree.  Leaf nodes:  All the leaf nodes except for the ones that are part of left or right boundary. Reverse right boundary nodes:  defined as the path from the right-most node to the root. The right-most node is the leaf node you could reach when you always travel preferring the right subtree over the left subtree. Exclude the root from this as it was already included in the traversal of left boundary nodes. Note:  If the root doesn't have a left subtree or right subtree, then the root itself is the left or right boundary.  Example 1: Input: 1   /...

0 - 1 Knapsack Problem (DSA)

  Problem Statement :(👈click here for GFG) You are given weights and values of  N  items, put these items in a knapsack of capacity  W  to get the maximum total value in the knapsack. Note that we have only  one quantity of each item . In other words, given two integer arrays  val[0..N-1]  and  wt[0..N-1]  which represent values and weights associated with  N  items respectively. Also given an integer W which represents knapsack capacity, find out the maximum value subset of  val[]  such that sum of the weights of this subset is smaller than or equal to  W.  You cannot break an item,  either pick the complete item or dont pick it (0-1 property) . Example 1: Input: N = 3 W = 4 values[] = {1,2,3} weight[] = {4,5,1} Output: 3 Example 2: Input: N = 3 W = 3 values[] = {1,2,3} weight[] = {4,5,6} Output: 0 Your Task: Complete the function knapSack() which takes maximum capacity W, weight array wt[], value ar...
