Would be hilarious if he walked into a job interview and got grilled about it. “yeah, so it says here you worked on the web? do you have a portfolio? what frameworks did you use?”

Web Developer… The Whole Thing
So you mean a stack developer?
Yeah… Emphasis on the FULL stack.
Well he only did SOME of it. CSS and JavaScript is all after him.
What’d Tim do again?
He invented Al Gore
He made a basic html site a couple years ago
I don’t know how you would get more specific.
I mean. It’s not wrong…
Missing “The” in front of title
Developer of the Web
Right? It’s just missing the article.
Well, “Web Developer” is effectively a compound (like in German, we do the same thing but often just keep the spaces between the words).
With a compound, the connection between the words sometimes has to be inferred, usually by inserting an appropriate preposition.
Usually, something like “Developer on the Web” would probably be what we understand.
In TBL’s case … it’s “Developer OF the Web”.
I think it’s a little more idiomatic (at least where I’m from in the US) to specify this difference as, “a web developer” vs “the web’s developer”
I think we’re saying the same thing.
Web’s developer = developer of the web +/- idiom
