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.
Developer of the Web
Right? It’s just missing the article.
I don’t know how you would get more specific.
Missing “The” in front of title
I mean. It’s not wrong…
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 Master would have been a better title…
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
I’m too lazy to find a picture of a spider for this joke - this exercise is left for the reader.

Trivial exercise.
