To add to all of this, I just have to say that I'm not sure where I'd be in my career without CodeNewbie. I was truly a newbie myself when CodeNewbie first started and it was my connection to the broader coding world. I really didn't know any other software developers in my personal life.
CodeNewbie has absolutely been an inspiration for so much of what we've done at DEV. Getting to work on their initiatives alongside Saron is a dream come true.
Congratulations to the DEV and CodeNewbie teams. Looking forward to the exciting things that are gonna be coming out of this great partnership.🔥🔥
I can't re-iterate this last point enough. CodeNewbie has already positively impacted so many people across the world, and we're humbled by the opportunity to continue and expand this work. As we all know, learning and growing through community is critical to making progress in this industry. To that end, ensuring that everyone feels welcome and supported must be one of our highest collective goals.
The more that we learned about CodeNewbie as a company and operation through this process, the more impressed we became. Saron is an incredible entrepreneur, and she's built an amazingly well-run operation. We're so excited to continue all the great work that she has started. Expect big things from DEV + CodeNewbie going forward!
The first time I met Saron, we were meeting with Ben to discuss civic tech and how we could make an impact. What came out of that meeting was a non-profit called "Make a Diff" (get it? 😏), where we organized events for less technical people to learn about security best practices.
Through that joint effort, we experienced how excellent it is to collaborate with Saron and how precisely aligned our values are, through and through.
Bringing DEV and CodeNewbie together is truly a dream come true.
tfw two of your FAVORITE companies join forces 🥰
so excited for this power team and collaboration!!
This is amazing news!! Congrats to the team 🎉
Yay!
How amazing is this! Two great development communities coming together!
That's really awesome!
What a great news!
Saron has been a great source of inspiration and motivation for me and, perhaps, for others too.
Someone here on DEV recommended a podcast,
The Command Line Heroes, back then in a particular post. I subscribed to the podcast and I must confess that it's the first podcast I found that 'speaks to me' directly. I became so emotionally attached to this podcast to the extent that it became a source of motivation for me, whenever I feel like giving up on coding.Very recently, I also joined the
Base.cspodcast and I must tell you that, as a CS graduate, I found this podcast to be a great refresher to me (I even learnt lots of things that either I didn't know or I understood not).So I feel like I'm the most happiest person to have read this very impressive and historical announcement!
My two favorite places on the internet have combined forces! 🚀 So amazing!! I can’t wait to get my ticket for Codeland, last year was my first time attending (attending any code conference for that matter) and I just had so many good vibes.
Woo!
What wonderful news!! I can see so many great things to come with CodeNewbie joining your team. Congratulations!
I am so stoked about all of this!
This is wonderful news! So very exciting to see DEV growing to better assist the community. I look forward to seeing what CodeNewbies and Dev can do together to foster more people to get into code. So cool!
Really amazing announcement(s)!
Saron and Levi - it's funny because I feel like I know both of you already from how much time I've spent listening to your podcasts.
Love seeing DEV continue getting better and better!
This is a great announcement! Congrats to everyone involved.
Dreamiest acquisition EVER! <3
// , Awwwwww yeah. This is great.
I didn't know about that. I really like to see that you're paying attention not just to the neebs (gotta bump that Monthly Active User count) but also to the l33t haxxors whose needs are more esoteric.
Congratulations! Two great communities with the same purpose getting together! Nothing but amazing stuff will happen <3
Two of my favorite dev platforms coming together is awesome! A warm welcome to the new addition to the Dev family.
Fabulous news! CodeLand sounds amazing...wish we had that in the UK!
Congratulations!! I'm so excited about what y'all will produce in the future!
What a great announcement! Huge congratulations to every member involved in this! ♥
This is amazing, the Dev team keeps making great moves. Congratulations.
Huge congrats to the team! I’m really impressed how you are building such a strong and vibrant community here 💪
This is wonderful news. Glad to see the two communities I have felt really comfortable at as a learner joining forces. ❤️
I love this news! Excited to see what is to come!! 💛
Incredibly exciting news. As a coding novice and newbie myself I look forward to what this collaboration will bring in terms of knowledge and support.
That is awesome news, you guys! So happy to see this, and excited about the upcoming conference. I bet y'all are going to crush it. 💪🏽💯
Awesome to see two of my favorite communities come together!
That's awesome news. Congratulations to everyone involved! 🥳
Some of the best news to start a day on/with
Very happy
Congrats!
So Ben, newbie here. What kind of posts do I tag with #codenewbie again? 😉 🔖
This is very exciting!
This is awesome news! Congrats to both of you!
Codeland Will be 2 days this year?
Omg! It was my very first conference and I can't miss it!!!
Can't wait to hear the new shows, bring on the podcasts!!
Congratulations to the DEV team and to @saronyitbarek . The CodeNewbie podcast has kept me motivated and helped me land my first developer job. I look forward to seeing the new content.
CodeNewbie's podcast is the only podcast I listen to. Really helped get over the imposter syndrome at my current job. This seems to be pretty relatable here.
Congrats! This is exciting news!
That's great news, when I started out as an instructor all my courses/posts were specifically geared towards newbies. Even now I try and post advanced topics as newbie friendly.
When will you hire me as a newbie? 😅😅😅
This is really amazing - keep up the great work!!
Brilliant. I don’t know where I’d be if it wasn’t for CodeNewbie 😍
I am happy to hear this...congrats Saron, Ben, and everyone in CodeNewbie!! Love this site, love the podcast!!!!
Very cool!! Congrats everyone - we love the work you do!
This is truly exciting news! Can't wait to see what the future holds for DEV and CodeNewbie.
Great news! Congratulations!
This is a big step for the community!
In 2014, Saron visited the Flatiron School bootcamp where I was studying and was an inspiration for all of us. I have so much respect for CodeNewbies and am excited to see ya'll join forces!
Congratulations! I'm definitely going to apply to talk at CodeLandConf! Sounds fun!
Google gasps
Congratulations :)
Honestly, I thought the banner color is strange. But then I realized it is part of CodeNewbie color scheme.
Very, eh... bright :)
