Am I a professional?

Well it’s kind of hard to say but, I don’t think I am.

I changed my skill set from Java and Spring to Javascript, Typescript.
Actually those are very attractive skills because I can make simple applications and scripts more easily and quickly than Java.
But when I develop with my new skills(js, ts), it’s little bit hard because I can’t use Spring framework.
I don’t think there’s powerful web framework like Spring in Javascript fields.
(Of course there’s Nest.js but I don’t think it can be compared to Spring)

But on the other hand, I think I’m too sticked to Java and Spring because it makes me developing too easy and comfortable.
I know developers don’t have enough time to make everything from scratch and also don’t have to do that.
But sometimes, developer can make an application from scratch without frameworks or libraries.
Just in case when they can’t use specific framework or library.

Someone tries to dig into some frameworks or libraries to understand how it works.
Yeah of course when you use some libraries you might as well see its code and understand how it works but, you know we don’t have enough time to see the every library’s code.
But there’s huge difference you know its code or not.

Anyhow, I think still I’m still a novice.
I’d better study way harder than before to be able to call me a professional developer.
