Introduction
Joining a Developer Community can be a Game Changer for Developers! And For Me it truly was a Game-changer!
The Support, Resources, Networking Opportunities I got from Tech Communities are Priceless! And apart from these Tech Stuff, I also got some Good Friends! Overall, Developer Community Helped me ( A LOT ) to grow in my career!
In this Article I'll share 5 Developer Communities (Obviosly My favorites) you must join to grow in your career!
Why only 5 not 20?
It's a very good Question! You might be thinking that if you join more communities you'll networking and opportunities!
Yes, You can join 10 or 20 Communities But it's very hardly that you'll be active on all of them!
So, From my personal experience I would recommend to join less communities and Be active there! And Believe me it's hard to be active in 5 communities as well : )
5 Dev Communities
Here are my Favourite 5 Communities that you must join:
1. EddieHub

Discord as a communication tool is instantly 👎 for any software development imo. It's a bad tool that somehow took hold of newbies that come from video game backgrounds.
I should give it a try!!
Let me know How it goes!
Yes for sure
Helpful article, Arindam!

Thanks for sharing these communities! 👏 We recently launched Gnanee.io, a community app aimed at solving key challenges for tech professionals—curating tech news, articles, and tutorials from trusted sources, then summarizing them into concise insights. Plus, it unifies profiles from GitHub, Dev.to, LinkedIn, etc., making it easier to showcase work. Hope it’s a useful resource for others here!
