Front end or Back end – what would you suggest I learn first in today's market?

from the self-post dept.

im a college student with an interest in web development.

i am wondering if the field is saturated and if i should focus on one side primarily (or learn it first) and then learn the other later

Both. Give it time. See where it goes. Learn what fits you. Learning both is the same amount of work...or maybe less because knowing one means you will struggle when and where it meets the other.

Although it's a growing field, no, it's not saturated at all.

Start with whatever you feel most confortable with. Frontend is usually more rewarding at first because you end up with something visual you can show to others.
