Full Stack Web Developer
The "stacks" for this term come from the backend and the front end of a Web site. The backend is the database, the server, and the code that joins the two. For example we would see the use of MySQL as the database, Apache as the server and PHP as the code that joins them. Since this group of software usually resides on the Linux operating system this has been called the LAMP stack. On the front end we would typically see HTML, CSS, and Javascript as the main coding technologies that create the "page" the visitor to the Web site will see.
