After ten years a lot of things will change, if you write a code now you should do a refactoring because the syntax will change like Javascript changing ES06, 07 and 08. But you are growing together with the technology as well.

For example, an architect builds some home modern for days today, but after 10 years new ideas, new concepts appear. So, it occurs in all areas of jobs, software development is very frequency, but it doesn't the thing for demotivating and be frustrated, the changes are important, nowadays is very nice and motivated to write an app with React instead only HTML, CSS, JS.

Keep study is the best way! Don't give up!

I like how you applied the same concept to most industries, I didn't look at it from that perspective before. Impressive :)

The most important stuff to keep in mind is the concepts, patterns, software engineer, how I said, syntax change, technology as well, but yourself mindset about how to do something, it is not.

Another point is if you are a backend and you want to be frontend, so, you have learned a punch news stuff.

I suggest focused in one are and to be specialist them. But if you want to change of area, keep it in your mind.

I have a lot of experience in Java Platform, I'm migrating to Javascript platform for work with a bit about backend but with focused in Front End with React, HTML, CSS. So, I have a punch thing to learn and to practice.
