Craftman/Engineer

I was having a discussion with my colleague, Hoang today morning. He said something about being a true engineer.

It resonated with me and I thought to write it down for myself.

A true engineer is never a frontend engineer or backend engineer.
Engineer is an engineer, who cares about their craft and usability of the craft,
irrespective of the tools he/she needs to use to build that craft.

If your craft needs 100 tools, you must be eager to learn them to build your craft to
the level of perfection and usability you want to have.

Your craft must ooze your creativity and zeal. Not the list of the tools or the
effort you've put to learn those tools. Because the ultimate object is craftmanship.

This is a sapling 🌱 in my digital garden 🏡.
