Do you need to know SQL to be a Full-stack Developer?

The question is about full-stack

Answer:

No, one does not need to know SQL to be a Full-stack Developer, but most likely, it will be a strong recommendation and probably a requirement. SQL is pretty much the standard for managing and querying most types of relational databases, which form a core part of most web applications. It provides a general understanding of how to properly manage data on the Back-end, write effective queries, and meet all the requirements necessary for a job, in turn making one a more versatile and competitive developer.
