Feel free to tell about what your day looks like. I'm exploring different positions so it'd be very valuable to me. I've already done a few courses in C# and Python, they seem to be quite common. My goal here is to get to know this role better, for now I have limited information about it. Is it rather repetitive, or is there always something new to do? What part of it do you enjoy the most and the least? Is it true that many desktop apps are really webapps?

Is it inevitable to end up (at least partly) in devops as a backend developer? I love code and solving business logic challenges as you put it, but the actual deployment pipeline is something I don't have that much experience with, and something I hoped I wouldn't ever have to do on an enterprise level. Is it just a part of the job description nowadays?
