Hey Dev.to community! I'm a software developer that loves to learn and stay up-to-date. I've been a member for several years but almost never write, so I think this thread is great for presenting myself!
By the way, I've been working on developing a social network for building and sharing knowledge bases. If that's your jam, please visit firebits.io and let me know what do you think about it!
What an incredible project, congrats! It's a pleasure to have you here, participating in DEV Community. Also, join off-topic posts to have fun and meet other members
Thanks, @thaisavieira ! 😊
Just moved from Hashnode to dev.to, after feeling like I need a fresh start and wrote my first article here just minutes ago. It's about contract testing. Check it out if you're interested in a quick intro as well as a practical code example.
What was Hashnode like to work with?
Just typical blogging platform. It supports custom domain so that is why I tried it at first. Not much traffic though.
Well I hope Dev works out better for you.
I think I have a blogger site on coding from forever ago but coldn't even recall the name of it now. No action there either tbh.
Hello Community,
I am new to this community and have recently enrolled in a Coding Bootcamp. I'm extreme excited for this new journey and open to learning the different areas of this career. I am an Army Veteran, and studied at Lincoln Tech in Electrical.
Awesome Cory.
Also: thank you for your service. Canadian here who spent some time in our own service.
Also was a radio technician and electronics tech once upon a career.
Well thank you for your service as well! It’ll be an interesting journey changing direction in careers.
Hello Cory,
Welcome to the community! 👋
I wish you a fruitful journey. 🌟
Thank you! 😁
Feel free to connect 😉
Hi All 👋. Special ed teacher here desperately seeking a way in to the tech industry asap.
So many new things to learn and not sure of the best first step to take. Would anyone be willing to share their origin story?
My hope is to gleam a bit of guidance from those who have successfully broken into tech from other professions without attending an expensive and time consuming college degree course or bootcamp.
Any thoughts on entry level positions to get me started? Or short courses that have proven to be useful?
All feedback is welcome and appreciated.
Thanks friends.
I recall when I started at fCC a woman who was a music teacher was posting videos sharing what she learned about the intro/basics.
I believe she ended up teaching for GitHub and moved on from there.
Here's some of her work:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7tlgZg4Q1o&list=PLWKjhJtqVAbmfoj2Th9fvxhHIeqFO7wOy
And back in the fCC forums there was a mod who eventually put together a list of free resources:
github.com/P1xt/p1xt-guides/blob/m...
I haven't checked it out in some time, tbh. but recall it was good 'filler' when taking the fCC challenges.
Hey Darren,
Thanks so much for your feedback :) this may be a total newb question, but by fCC do you mean free code camp? or some other acronym?
I checked out Briana from the link you posted in your other reply, she seems to have a ton of useful videos so thank you I will continue to check that out!
I am currently enrolled in Coursera Front End Development course, halfway through and still do not feel like I know anything more about building websites. I'll keep at it because I am determined (maybe a little obsessed) but whats your story? How did you break into tech?
Yes fCC - free Code Camp
I used to hang out a ton.
My story is long and meandering. I graduated Mechanical Engineering in the great recession of '92. So I hooked up with a PHd drop out and we built college radio stations for a few half dozen+ years. Circa 2000 radio was moving to 'the web' and cable because it was cheaper, and I knew that industry was heading into oblivion (Although could have moved int telecom for cell towers)
Because we reverse engineered antenna, I got a job at a certification agency that did Radio Frequency Intereference testing. They combined that with PC testing. So I moved into Certifying PCs.
Somewhere along that path I got moved into a Continuous Improvement project to automate workflows and incorporate an ERP with a CRM and Content Management system, using PM methodologies. ALl Agile, Six Sigma, Process Mapping type stuff.
We had a few WebDevs to build us some quick prototype DB's before we integrated systems, And I started learning WebDev to find out what my team was actually doing. We were trained in BSAing, PMing, UI/UX, and Change Management because why not have your employees do 10 roles for the price of one, right?
In terms of coding, I had an Apple 2+ and coded in Basic and Machine Code so that I could build MUDs ( text RPGs) when I was in grade 7 or 8. In uni I coded in Fortran on punch cards to do Derivatives and Field effects. Coded in C when we were doing antenna design to see interference patterns. Never used code for anything more than figuring complex math. ( Can't remember any of that now, to be honest ).
Long pointless journey to be honest ;)
Hey all! :)
I'm Oscar, a student at Codam (school 42), finishing my last few projects before a 6 month internship. My main interests are game development and cyber security; ideally I'd love to learn more about and work on game engines. I just recently found out about dev.to and am excited to join!
About me
I'm comfortable in C, C++ and Rust. I know some C#. I've really enjoyed learning Odin, and am now making some game prototypes with it and raylib/SDL2. You can find some of my projects on my github, however most game prototypes are private since they contain paid assets, you will mostly find C school projects such as my own shell or raycast.
What I will be posting about
If anyone knows lots about game engines and enjoys talking about them, reach out ! I'd love to listen :)
I always think I want to get into game design but the time is never quite right.
Looking forward to what you have to post.
Hello Oscar,
Welcome to the community! 👋
Hope you enjoy your time here and have a fruitful journey. 🌟

I'm still sort of acting like a sponge right now absorbing as much as I can.
Hey there, dev.to community! 👋
I’m Michael. My journey has been quite the adventure, with a good mix of startup grit and corporate polish. Now I'm off to start my own venture, Nextvestment - to make investing simpler and easier for the man on the street. I'm building an investment research platform & copilot for individual investors and financial advisors, focusing on taking the fluff out of investing.
When I’m not knee-deep in code or AI models, I love brainstorming new tech ideas and exploring ways to innovate in the finance space. I’m excited to be part of the dev.to community, share my journey, and learn from all of you awesome folks.
Can’t wait to connect and collaborate!
Cheers,
Michael

Thanks 🙏 It’s not a cliche ..it’s true.. this is by far the most successful.. and I have the scars to prove it. The struggle is real.

I'm an old dog trying to learn new tricks. Thought I was real smart until I tried to plow through some of the documnetation on python, anaconda, pandas, numpy, virtual machines, quantum entanglement...well you get the picture. The one thing I learned is that I certainly do want to learn but even more I want to learn how to learn. Help is always appreciated, snark not so much
