What I learnt after 6 years, working in the IT industry
In November of 2021, I completed 6 years in the IT industry. It was a weird journey, having its ups and downs. On multiple occasions I have been confused as to what I wanted from my career, as there are so many options like backend, frontend, dev-ops, full-stack and the list just goes on.
I started my career as a .net(C#) developer with Infosys, and being a naive fresher I thought C# was amazing and especially after using Visual Studio and the amazing IntelliSense it provides, I wanted to become a .net expert. Now after 6 years, all of my experience has been working with JS and building frontend apps in AngularJS(the OG one), Angular, React, and now will be transitioning to Vue.
