<div dir="ltr">IMHO, it is a type of development, but development is more then just plain writing code. "Code Monkey" writes code. Developer design things, understand things etc... <br><br>The question is can you handle development tasks, or just hack a problem with a super glue/duck tape ? If you can only use duck tape, you are not a developer, but if you can solve problems in a maintainable way that have a lot of thinking behind it, then welcome to the club :)<br>

<div dir="ltr">Hi,<div>Since I'm looking for a Linux system job and the market conditions still sucks, I began thinking about other possibilities..</div><div>One of them is to become a full time developer..</div><div>
<br>
</div><div>As a system guy, I had my share of so-called "programming": I wrote lots of shell scripts, PHP, some perl etc. I wasn't a "script kiddie" and I didn't write scripts/programs day in day out, but rather as "solutions" to situations where I needed to "stitch" various technologies or apps.<br>
<div><br></div><div>My question is simple: When does the "developer" experience starts ticking? (I'm not talking about any specific language here). Do the years of writing those small programs/scripts count as a "developer years"? or does the clock starts ticking when I'm a full time programmer?</div>
