Hey everyone,

I’m a software engineer with over 3 years of experience in the MEAN/MERN stack. I took a career break after moving to Canada in late 2022, and while I’ve kept an eye on things, it feels like the tech world — especially AI — has sprinted miles ahead while I blinked.

Now I’m ready to get back in and rebuild my momentum. I want to realign myself with what’s current in full stack development and understand how AI fits into a modern engineer’s toolkit.

My background includes React, Angular, Node.js, MongoDB, SQL, Docker, and Git — plus a beginner-level comfort with AI tools.

If anyone’s got advice, structured roadmaps, or just insights on what to prioritize in 2025, I’d love to hear from you.

Thanks for helping a fellow dev reboot smarter...
