Owner / Developer @ 211j.com Web Development, Web Hosting, Wordpress, WooCommerce.
I build websites using Wordpress exclusively.
I only use WooCommerce w/ Wordpress as an eCommerce solution.
"Full-stack" web developer does get thrown around. However I believe that is still has a pretty static definition.
My understanding is it is a "jack of all trades" scenario. Except by "jack" I mean ver knowledgable just not a master, and by "all trades" I mean the layers of of a full stack developer mentioned here:

I would like to think that I am on my path to becoming a full stack developer. I believe this takes a long time. So I started by taking freelance work that enabled me to get my hands dirty. The more client need I answer the more I become familiar with all of these layers.
The only path I know to becoming a full stack developer is just start building things.
Want a starting point? Build an SPA that communicates with Wordpress for managing the state over the new WP JSON REST API, using Backbone.,js.
Leon was extremely help. He was able to answer my technically questions within 5 mins of the call. he is an advance WooCommerce/WordPress developer and I look forward to working more with him.
