Hello dev.to community, :wave :)
My name is Dusan, and I am from Serbia. I've always liked learning new things about technology but I never found a platform that would interest me enough to participate regularly, so I signed up to dev.to with the intent to get more involved with this great dev community.
I hope to become a regular contributor and nice to meet you all!!
Hello! Nice to have you here! π
Thanks,
Btw. I am starting up my blog up again, really proud of that fact that I am using static page generation (jekyll and github pages) to maintain all the blog data (no more databases yey!)
dsaga.dev
Awesome stuff, Dusan! Your blog looks great. π
Just to note that if you wanna easily re-share content from it on DEV, we have a feature called Publishing to DEV Community from RSS that can be set up via your settings here. Basically, it allows you to regularly import content from your blog onto DEV, where you can make any adjustments and then post away.
If you're trying to build a following here, I would recommend siphoning out your posts day by day, versus sharing all of your blog content at once. Reason being is that the home feed kinda favors newness, so if you drop all your posts at once, you're less likely to be seen by as many folks. In any case, definitely do whatever you'd prefer!
I hope this guidance is helpful and that you dig being part of the DEV community. Looking forward to seeing your posts!
Oh interesting I'll keep that in mind, I was thinking to just post separate things, maybe not even post much on dev.to for now, I would just try to contribute to other peoples content by providing feedback..
Thanks!!
Oh rock on! Contributing feedback is just as awesome. Def no pressure to share your posts here, but those tools are here if ya decide to.
Welcome welcome! Hope you have fun on our wee platform.
thanks!
I am new here and want to learn
Welcome, @tobbmax! You're in the right place. Do you have any favorite coding languages or technologies you'd like to share?
Hello Dev.to Community, π
My name is Ashok Kumar Dharanikota, I'm a recent engineering graduate. who is interested in Software Development. I like to share my learning through blogs. I'm currently learning and exploring DevOps on AWS Cloud and SpringBoot. I would like to make these complex and popular technologies easy to learn and understandable to everyone through my posts. I truly appreciate guidance and support from my peer developers like you.π
Thank You π€
Hello, sorry I want to know the way to create app for small business
Have you explored softr.io? It's an excellent no-code solution. Alternatively, Salesforce development offers another efficient avenue to create applications swiftly, bypassing the complexities of coding and integration hassles. Both of these options are incredibly user-friendly and convenient.
Thanks dear, i want to build app for daily sales record report
me too
Hi @alphonce_jordan_15af0b3a6
That's great to hear. If you want your application to target multiple platforms. I think it is good to go with React Native. To have complete control over your app and faster development. Flutter is also a great choice. As @silver2810 suggests it is also a good idea to utilise no-code platforms. If you do not have experience with coding.
It's great to have you here, @ashokdharanikota! Are there any favorite resources, books, or online courses you've found helpful in your journey into DevOps and SpringBoot that you'd recommend to fellow learners?
Hi @erinao, Thank you for asking here are the sources I am currently following. (Sorry for the late response.)
for DevOps:
I am following one YouTube channel
Abhishek.Veeramalla - Link (This DevOps playList)
For AWS Cloud
Tech with Lucy - link
CloudCareerMentor - link
For SpringBoot
I found a repo full of spring boot projects. Covered with lot of concepts.

ππThis is a fantastic list, @ashokdharanikota! Thank you for sharing it with our community.
I am also focusing on this specific tech your posts may acts as an inspiration for my blog.
That's great to hear.
Hey there DEV Community!
I'm thrilled to be joining this fantastic community of developers, creators, and tech enthusiasts. My name is Kevin, and I come bearing a passion for all things web development, design, and digital marketing.
A little bit about me: I've spent the last few years honing my skills in WordPress development, mastering HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and delving into the wonderful world of UI/UX design. I've had the pleasure of creating websites that not only look good but also perform exceptionally. On top of that, I'm a firm believer in the power of digital marketing to drive results. SEO, SEM, email marketing, and social media campaigns are my daily companions.
In this community, I'm excited to share my experiences, insights, and maybe even a few tutorials along the way. But most importantly, I'm here to learn from all of you. The tech world is ever-evolving, and the best way to stay ahead is through collaboration and shared knowledge.
So, here's to discussions on the latest web development trends, creative design ideas, and digital marketing strategies. Feel free to reach out if you have questions, want to chat about a project, or just share your own experiences.

Hello Dev.To,
Good Day.
My name is Chuck and I am currently an Application Support Analyst working to become a full time software engineer. In addition to that, I enjoy coding for Amazon Alexa. I had heard about this community on the freecodecamp podcast. I love that with software engineering we can create something that did not exist before. It is an exercise for the creative side and engineering side of my brain!
I always want to ensure to give back. So here is something that I learned yesterday. I was yesterday years old, when I discovered you can launch certain tabs on Google Chrome each time you launch it. You can do this by going to Settings->On Start Up.
Hey, @kingchuck32! Glad you're here. Love your enthusiasm and the tip. Can't wait to see more of your insights and knowledge-sharing here on DEV!
This is a nice tip, shows how much you're invested into this community :D
Just wanted to say welcome to everyone new and not-so-new to DEV. π
Hope y'all enjoy it here!
