"Jack of all trades, master of none."

I'm in a completely different position entirely, but I understand your predicament. I am about to start learning to program again by either earning a Nanodegree or going to a bootcamp.

So my decision has become, do I become full stack, back-end or front-end? Do I focus on iOS development?

Sure, I want to be good at it all, but it sure seems like a much better idea to be a SPECIALIST at something.

I still don't know what path I wanna take, I just know I want to focus on web/app development and that will probably mean getting help when necessary. I hate backend *NIX administration tasks and just want things to work, so I can get on with the job.

So when you post this, it makes me strongly reconsider my strategy.
