Feel free to tell about what your day looks like. I’m exploring different positions so it’d be very valuable to me. I’ve already done a few courses in C# and Python, they seem to be quite common. My goal here is to get to know this role better, for now I have limited information about it. Is it rather repetitive, or is there always something new to do? What part of it do you enjoy the most and the least? Is it true that many desktop apps are really webapps?

      Perhaps, but don’t forget every god has had to learn a few things the hard way.

      Many will cherry pick or apply self-serving interpretations of your pronouncements.

      Many false prophets will arise.

      Many will rail against your very existence and create competing systems.

      Eventually, you will be considered archaic and replaced by the gods of the new thing.

      Tongue in cheek, obviously, but not too firmly. :j

      Although- do keep in mind- Front-end developers are cool too. They possess the reality stone, and can change reality to see how they see fit.

      They speak mystical languages such as javascript, react, etc… and they were responsible for building the world as you see it. (We just created the physics which makes the world work)
