Hey Oud! ππ»
Welcome to the community ππ»
Welcome to DEV, Oud.
Thanks for the warm welcome, Ben!
Hey Oud! Welcome!
hello!
Hi Iβm Johnny, a software engineer with 20 years of experience. I have ADHD and am currently working in a tool, called Divergent Flow, for productivity. I joined to connect with other devs that may struggle with traditional systems like jira and outlook. I would love to connect and hear about how other neurodivergent devs stay productive!
Hey guy how's doing...
i just joined this community to learn about web development and software development. hope it I'll be fun because i enjoy a lot coding, creating crafting all the stuff attract me.
thanks and wish me happy journey.
Hey Shahrukh! ππ»
Welcome to the community ππ»
Welcome to DEV, Shahrukh. Follow the WebDev tag to see web development in your feed.
Hey Shahrukh! Welcome! There is a lot of great resources here for web and software development here! The community is awesome for me so far and wish you the same for your journey!
hey
Hey everyone π
Just joined.
Iβm working mostly with backend + product thinking, and Iβm interested in how real systems behave once they grow beyond βit worksβ.
Here to read, learn, and share notes from the messy middle of building things.
Glad to be here.
Welcome, everyone!! I hope you enjoy it here :)
Welcome to DEV! ππ»
If youβre new here, Iβm really glad you found your way to this community. DEV is one of those rare places where curiosity, kindness, and learning actually coexist, and thatβs what keeps me coming back.
Iβm Hadil Ben Abdallah, a software engineer and a technical content writer who loves turning complex developer topics into clear, practical stories that actually help people build things. I learn a lot by reading othersβ experiences here, and I strongly believe that sharing, even when you feel βnot ready yetβ, is how we grow fastest. π₯
If youβre just starting out, my advice is simple:
π Ask questions.
πShare what youβre learning.
π Donβt compare your chapter 1 to someone elseβs chapter 20.
Looking forward to learning with you all π
Hey! Just joined the community. I'm a new developer who loves building things with AI, using it as a coding partner for side projects has completely changed how I approach software development.
Currently deep into Rust and desktop app development, but always curious about what others are working on. Looking forward to learning from this community and sharing what I pick up along the way!
Hey Ola. Hope you are well. Welcome to the community!
What projects are you building with Rust by the way? I heard that Rust is on the rise to popularity now because of its runtime.
Again, welcome!
Thanks Francis!
I'm currently working on a text editor with markdown support + native mermaid diagrams rendering in rust, so mermaid.rs basically :P
Started the project because I wasn't happy with how Microsoft changed Notepad in Win11, and figured I'd try building what I actually wanted.
I'm not the strongest programmer, but I've developed a solid AI-assisted workflow that's been working well, the project has grown to include a bunch of features. Pretty happy with how far it's come!
Interestingly, Rust's strict compiler makes AI-assisted coding more reliable i think, mistakes get caught at compile time rather than runtime. That plus the improvements in newer models like Claude Opus 4.5 has made for a pretty smooth workflow.
Wow that great :D
I took a look at the text editor you are building on GitHub and it looks like it got traction (847 stars)! How did you get this much popularity before Dev.to? Is it marketing?
I would assume mistakes happen usually in compile time if it is that reliable (Unless the AI is poorly trained and getting the results that are not accurate. But would that be a runtime error though?).
Will check your project out in the future and maybe contribute! Mind as well start to be familiar with Rust. Awesome work!
most of it came from a single Hacker News post around the v0.2.0 release that did really well. HN can be unpredictable, but when a post lands at the right time, it drives a lot of visibility. I also shared it on a couple of Reddit communities (r/rust), but HN was definitely the main driver. No fancy marketing strategy, just sharing something I built and hoping it resonated with people.
Would love to have you! The codebase is in Rust with egui for the GUI. If you're new to Rust, it's a great way to learn, the compiler is strict but helpful. Feel free to check out the issues on GitHub or just poke around the code. Happy to help if you have questions!
Sounds good! I will let you know in the future if anything! (Also followed you on Dev.to to look forward to more updates! :D)
hello everyone, I'm about as dumb as a box of rocks when it comes to tech, but I love the shit out of it. I don't know why but I do but I don't understand it lol how are you guys doing today? I am a 23 year army veteran and I am 100% disabled because I was blown up a few times and I live in Southern California for now. I'm picking them move to Missouri did I say I love tech but I don't understand it? If somebody can teach me just a little bit of tech you'd be the smartest person on this earth because I just don't understand it. I don't understand how to code I don't understand how to build stuff with code. I don't understand none of that so if y'all could teach me how to code that that would be fantastic. I look forward to chatting with each and everyone of you and maybe hopefully someday soon or later we can meet up because I plan on traveling a whole lot. Did I mention I don't know how to code I really don't well AnyWho great meeting you guys and I will post a picture of myself. Maybe if if you're lucky lol if I'm lucky I won't break the camera so thanks a lot guys and I will talk to you soon.
Hey DEV community!
Iβm here to share my learning journey, mainly around Linux, especially Arch Linux, and open-source tools. I like documenting setups and experimenting with systems. Excited to be part of the community!
Hi all, and a warm welcome to the new dev.to community members! I've been around for a bit over a year now, initially joining just to show support for a friend's blog. It was exactly a year later that I decided to start sharing some of my own thoughts and experiences. One thing that really drew me in was this community's support - even when people were being critical, it didn't feel harsh, it felt helpful. There's something really lovely about that dynamic. I hope you all find the same support here, and are able to grow and learn together. Cheers and welcome to dev.to!
Hi Everyone. So excited to be here. I am a just learning Java, and hope to get into SQL. I would love input on the process. Sometimes it is tough to not get discouraged.
Hey Jenifer. Hope you are well. Welcome to the community!
Glad you are learning Java. What kind of projects are you thinking of that involves Java? I rarely seen projects that uses purely Java and the only time I seen it was my friend building chess in Java.
What are you hoping to get out of the Dev.to community? Is it trying to master Java and SQL? Inspiration Since you mention discouragement)?
Either way, welcome!
Hi Francis. Thank you for the warm welcome. I am not sure about any projects of my own. Right now I am working through a Udemy Java master class, which does have a lot of exercises/challenges for me to practice with. I figure, to put some of those in my portfolio. As far as the community hear, I am hoping to get some encouragement to not give up. I do want to learn a lot more about Java and SQL, to find a remote development role soon. What about you? What are learning?
Thanks Jenifer!
I am reviewing my skills in Full-stack, but also learning AI on top of that for the goal of implementing AI to my full stack projects. I hope to get conformable with it as a goal for this year. Hope your journey goes well :D
Welcome everyone!
Hi everyone :)
Iβm a Project Zomboid mod developer, working mainly with Lua and game-side systems. Currently focused on clean mod architecture, extensibility, and tooling.
Hello, I'm David, I just got to know about Google AI Studio and I've been exploring so far and it's been fun!
Thank you
Hey David. Hope you are well! Glad you find it fun so far learning Google AI Studio! What are other things have you been exploring so far? Other than that, welcome to the community!
Thanks Francis, I make video contents also and I'm currently a software engineering student at Miva Open University
That's Awesome! What kind of video content are you publishing? Either way, hope your journey goes well!
I make explainer videos, skit and Talking Head Video
Thank you very much
I may have to pick your brain I an interested in using Rust to create some WASM plugins to run in an existing.net app
Hiyeee! Just join this community hope you're all doing awesome today! :)
I am still going through Foundation path! Nice to meet you!
Bouncing around the internet....touching things.... jotting notes.... considering global domination.... same ol' same ol'
Hi all, old school tech generalist here ππ»
Looking to learn anything & everything!
Hey Daniel. Welcome to the community! As Richard mention, there is a lot of content here to look forward to on your journey as a developer! What is your favorite programming language so far by the way? Again, Welcome to the community :)
Thanks Francis, Favorite programming language? I've only really used Python, Java (Groovy to a lesser extent) and JS. If I had to choose, I'd probably say Java, but I guess that's because I've spent the most time with it.
Thank you, Richard!
I'm currently using freeCodeCamp, Codecademy & some YouTube videos to learn Web Dev... But I haven't started with game Dev yet but I'm interested in 3D games & frontend
Hi everyone! I'm a developer working with React, Next.js, and a bit of Express. I've always loved writing and sharing knowledge, but I've hesitated because I feel what I know is not "deep enough" to be worth sharing. I'm working on getting past that!
Currently, I'm learning React Native and mobile app development. I look forward to learning from this community and sharing what I pick up along the way!
Thanks, Richard. Both for the support and the welcoming, I'm already loving the community.
π Hello! I've joined long time ago, but I've hardly participated in conversations since then. DEV has become my go to for reading on PC or phone whenever I have free time. These days, my fav topics to read about are Rust and everything Linux, since I'm still learning both!
Joined a few days ago to participate in the github cli challenge and to submit my entry, Copilot CLI Swarm Orchestrator. I specialize in AI dev and research. Specifically offline reasoning and Cognitive Layering. founder of Aftermath Technologies Ltd. Also, to hopefully connect with more like-minded people. I've been very inclusive and anti-social for years, trying to change that. Looking forward to being a part of the community.
New to the community. An oldie! Developing in Python, HTML, and PSQL. Here to get depth knowldge on these and cloud in particular. You can check out the profile page on eshana.net developed on HTML, Flask front end, and Python, PSQL backend.
Hey Rajeev. Hope you are well. Welcome to the Dev.to Community!
Hey DEV folks π
Iβm a Laravel developer who enjoys fixing bugs that look scary at first but turn out to be simple once you understand why they happen.
Iβm here to learn better backend practices, share small real-world fixes, and connect with people who love solving problems as much as I do.
Fun fact: I usually understand a bug after taking a break from it π
Happy to say helloβwhat are you currently building?
Hello guys!
Hello folks! Looking forward to learn from all the tech expert here!
Joined this community today. Hope to gain more skills on JavaScript and programming in general.
Thanks! I work full-stack but lean more toward backend architecture. I enjoy designing scalable microservices and APIs, though I do frontend when needed. The JavaScript ecosystem across the stack makes it easier to switch contexts and mentor team members on both ends. What about you - what are you currently into?
Was building an AI project and somehow ended up here. Curious what happens next
Hey Alex! Welcome to the community! What AI project are you working on specifically? If anything, glad you are part of this community!
Thanks! Iβm currently working on an experimental agentic AI system focused on orchestration, tool execution, and handling failure cases in automated workflows.
Glad to be part of the community.
Hello everyone! π
Iβm a developer based in India, working at C-DAC Bengaluru on large-scale projects.
I enjoy learning about backend systems, APIs, security, and clean code practices. Joined DEV to learn from the community and share real-world development insights. Happy to be here π
I completely agree β the DEV community makes it easy to share progress, mistakes, and lessons without it feeling forced.
Thanks for the warm welcome, I really appreciate it. Hope you find something useful in the posts, and Iβm always happy to discuss or answer questions along the way.
Joined the community some days ago
While I've been reading posts from the community for some years now I also wanted to also share my experience in the software engineering world with everyone.
Hi, I'm Zane. I've been building AI agent systems for a couple years and recently decided to actually write down what works vs what's just hype.
Turns out most of it works, just differently than people say.
Live in Hawaii. Surf badly. Code slightly better.
I got to know about dev.to for a very long time. but it took me soo long to get used to this. I'm a fullstack developer who builds systems using nextjs as fullstack solution, and use postgres or mongodb accordingly.
and excited to learn more regarding tech and development hacks.
Hi, i'm amritanshu wanna learn web dev in 2026 .. you guys can guide me how to do it smartly in 2026. funfact about me is that i like chess
Hey Amritanshu! Hope you are well. Welcome!
Hope that helps!
Hi! Just joined and looking forward to learning from the community.
Hello go2maxi. Welcome to the Dev.to community! There is a lot of great resource to learn here and a lot of people to connect to! I see you are learning python. What is your current goal as of now? Is it building projects with Python? Career tips?
Either way, Welcome again!
Hey, thanks!
Iβm still pretty early in Python, and lately Iβve been trying to move past just βcode that works.β
I realized I was kind of using things without really knowing what was going on underneath.
So these days Iβm poking around stuff like iterators and the standard library, taking small notes as I go.
Nothing fancy yet, just trying to build a better mental model.
Nice to meet you~
Thanks for the warm welcome, Richard!
I chose Rust for a few key reasons:
Cross-platform - I wanted to build a desktop app that runs natively on Windows, macOS, and Linux without maintaining separate codebases. Rust with egui makes this surprisingly smooth.
Memory safety. Rust's ownership system is a learning curve, but now I really appreciate not worrying about memory leaks or data races. The compiler catches so many bugs before they become runtime issues.
Maturity. The ecosystem has really grown. Crates like egui, comrak for markdown parsing, syntect for syntax highlighting, there's a quality library for almost everything now, with great documentation.
Looking forward to learning from everyone here!
Hey Guys I am a full stack software developer working in a startup. Mostly I was working on the company's task only. I want to explore the other parts as well to build meaningful SASS apps and webapps.
Let's begin the journey !!
You can reach me on LinkedIn : linkedin.com/in/mukul-verma-69ab31...
Hey Mukul. Hope you are well. Welcome to the Dev.to! What inspired you to be part of the Dev.to community and what are your goals for this year?
I am also a Full Stack developer as well, though I would say I am a beginner. Welcome again!
Hey Francis my inspirations comes from watching nowadays every dev is building stuff that is actually used by thousands of people I also want to contribute to the community.
My goals is to publish at least 3 apps this year. Still brainstorming the ideas though !!
Hey everyone! We're Aspxone, a solo team. We make tools open and free since 2025 (it is a bit old π ). Founded and run by VyomTBM, we hope we see other solo teams using our tools and other free useful resources.
Hi Richard, so glad you responded. I have been on and off with my learning over the years. It was either life got busy or I got discouraged, or just wasn't willing to put the time in that I know learning code requires. When I got my BS in computer science a little over a decade ago, the language used was Java. I did dabble in Python a couple of years ago, when I was thinking about being a data analyst. I really am a fan of Java. I just really need a community to help in this journey. I have never joined one before, and maybe that was one of the reasons I would give up. I really want to be in the field and hope to find a job soon. I know I just have to keep putting in the time. I just hope to get good feedback and maybe help in this process. How long have you been in the field, what got you interested in coding itself and Python?
Hi everyone, I joined this community to share my learning journey as a DevOps engineer and talk about my experience and interests. Iβm currently learning Go by building my own Prometheus health exporter.
Hi devs!
Iβm a software developer and right now Iβm spending a lot of time improving my system design, Java, and Pythonβbasically the areas I want to get stronger at also and building scalable systems. Super excited to learn, exchange ideas, and grow together with this community.
Hi Richard. Yes life can get crazy sometimes. For sure, with programming, you use it or lose it. I hope to stay focused on this journey with this community also. I am working through a course on Udemy that is a Java masterclass. It has a lot of exercises/challenges after many of the lessons, some I can do, some I can't. I wonder, do I really need to do all of the exercises after each section. That is when I get discouraged a bit, but the difference is that this time I am not giving up, and have joined several communities that will help with any question I will have. The main thing, I figure, is I keep practicing on one or two exercises/challenges and move on to the next lesson, or I will never get through the course:). Thank you so much for mentioning the Java resources to someone else. You never know what's out there. I hope to hear the great strides you are making in your journey also.
I post code on LinkedIn. Dev Community sounds like it might be a better place to do that. I mostly post Javascript code and talk about what I'm currently working on in my Javascript Libraries. They simplify javascript code and make websites more expressive.
I might also post about COBOL and other legacy tools. Note: COBOL is still a big player in some arenas.
Heloo!!! Just joined Dev Community!
I'm Ateeb, A Full Stack Developer and AI Engineer passionate about building scalable SaaS products that combine automation, data intelligence, and clean UI/UX.
Let's learn and build together!
Thank you, Richard!
Iβm mainly running Arch Linux alongside Windows in a dual-boot setup. I havenβt tried Manjaro yet, but my focus has been directly on Arch. Iβm also on a moderately old system (i5 4th gen), and surprisingly, it has been more capable than I expected.
Things I assumed werenβt possible on this hardware under Windows turned out to be very doable once I started exploring Arch and tinkering more deeply. Iβve experimented with QEMU, GPU passthrough, and benchmarking. Even with gaming, Iβve noticed some story-driven offline titles performing better on Linux than they did on Windows.
One of the most fun parts for me is customizing Hyprland, although it can be very time consuming. But my main desktop environment on Arch is KDE Plasma. I feel Arch Linux is a great choice if you want to build your system from zero with full understanding. If you have spare time and want complete control from zero to one hundred percent, Gentoo Linux is also worth trying. I experimented with Gentoo as well, but with only four CPU cores, compilation took a very long time, so I eventually shifted back to Arch.
Yes, you have understood that correctly. Manjaro holds updates back to catch potential issues, which makes it feel safer on older or less-used machines.
If you go with a fresh Arch install, a small tip is to disable the swap partition if you are using the archinstall script. If you prefer doing everything manually, you can use cfdisk for disk partitioning. Although the Arch Wiki suggests fdisk, it can be harder to track disk names and partition labels when partitioning manually. Both tools are already available in the Arch ISO.
Iβve been using Arch for about a year now and have tried various setups along the way. Iβve started documenting my experiments and plan to share those experiences here from time to time. Getting comfortable with Linux is what pushed me in this direction as well.

Thanks, I appreciate it!
Project Zomboid is definitely worth it, especially if you enjoy systems-heavy games.
I didnβt start with Zomboid directly. I got into modding through general programming and tinkering with systems, and Zomboid ended up being a great fit because of how open and extensible its Lua-based modding is.
Once you start changing small things, it quickly turns into designing systems instead of scripts β which is what really hooked me.
An IRC bot is honestly a great entry point, by the way. Youβre still dealing with events, state, and edge cases β just in a different environment.
What kind of things did your bot do back then?
Thatβs actually a great example β bots like that are much closer to real software than people give them credit for. Event handling, state management, permissions, edge casesβ¦ banning yourself once is basically a rite of passage π
Lua really shines in environments like Project Zomboid because it sits right at that sweet spot: simple to get started with, but flexible enough to build proper systems once things grow beyond βjust a script.β
And yes, I do plan to write more about modding here. Iβm especially interested in sharing lessons around mod architecture, maintainability, and the kinds of problems that only show up once a mod lives for a while and interacts with others.
If thereβs anything specific youβd be curious about β tooling, structure, or common pitfalls β feel free to let me know.
Thatβs hilarious β a brutally honest prediction bot sounds exactly like something a clan would both rely on and slowly stop trusting π
Python is a great language to come back to, especially with how accessible it is for scripting, tooling, and experimentation. And youβre right β modding can be a very gentle way into Lua. It lets you focus on logic and systems without getting buried in boilerplate.
Godot is also a solid choice. Its scripting model and scene system feel very developer-friendly, especially if you enjoy understanding how things work under the hood.
Looking forward to the questions β discussions like this are half the reason I enjoy writing here.
Hello everyone, I am Ankit Jatav a computer Science Engineering Student and i just found this platform and joined to get more exposure of web dev and connect with people to learn something every single day ..

π Hi dev.to, Iβm Selvacanabady.
I build systems where abstraction eventually runs out.
My background spans data center operations, CMS and ERP migrations, and now healthcare platformsβcustomizing open-source systems, integrating hardware, and optimizing software that has to perform under real constraints.
I care about:
backend architecture and performance
PHP, Python, JavaScript in production (not demos)
system boundaries: web β hardware β data
code that survives traffic, upgrades, and human behavior
Here, Iβll write about practical engineeringβtrade-offs, failures, optimizations, and the quiet decisions that keep systems running.
No framework evangelism. No cargo culting.
Just software, as itβs actually built.
Letβs get to work
Hey everyone! π
Excited to join this amazing developer community! I'm the creator and maintainer of REslava.Result - a production-ready Result pattern library for C# that's helping developers eliminate exceptions for more predictable code.
What brought me here was wanting to connect with fellow .NET developers and share insights about functional programming patterns in C#. I've been deep in the trenches building REslava.Result, which features:
π Zero dependencies and comprehensive testing (95%+ coverage)
π― CRTP-powered fluent APIs with perfect type preservation
π·οΈ Rich error context with structured tagging system
π Comprehensive success tracking for audit trails
Right now, I'm really diving deep into advanced C# patterns like Curiously Recurring Template Pattern (CRTP), railway-oriented programming, and functional composition. My library solves the real-world problem of unpredictable exception handling by providing type-safe, composable error handling that makes code more maintainable and testable.
Looking forward to learning from all of you, sharing my journey with functional programming in C#, and connecting with developers who are passionate about writing cleaner, more predictable code. Feel free to check out REslava.Result if you're interested in modern error handling patterns! π
Hey! MERN developer (6 years) here.
Here to learn, grow, and share what I'm discovering about clean architecture and practical design patterns. Looking forward to connecting with this community!
Thanks, Richard!
Iβve mostly worked on problems that show up between systems β like when things silently drift out of sync and suddenly youβre dealing with refunds, cancellations, and penalties.
So Iβm less focused on backend as a tech stack, and more on backend as a system β something that holds up even when data is a bit messy or external APIs flake out.
That said: currently building with Node + Postgres + Supabase. And yeah, still wrestling with concurrency here and there π
Thanks so much, Richard
I started building apps with Google AI Studio already and it's been fun, I'm currently working on something now, I used just Google AI Studio and Google Antigravity
Hey everyone! π Just joined the community.
Iβm a newer developer who loves building side projects with HTML, CSS, and JavaScriptβworking on real projects has completely changed how I approach learning and problem-solving.
Currently focused on frontend development and improving my UI and responsiveness skills, but always curious to see what others are building. Looking forward to learning from you all and sharing what I pick up along the way!
Xfce is best suited for older hardware and was developed mainly as a lightweight desktop environment. If you want something even lighter, you can try LXQt, as it uses less RAM and overall CPU resources. But if you are comfortable with Xfce, it is still a very solid choice.
Manjaro is already an Arch-based distribution, but I think it offers more stability compared to Arch. If you really want to try Arch, I would suggest not updating the system too frequently. Running updates weekly or even twice a month works better.
However, this last update had some issues. My guess is that itβs related to initramfs. The kernel was updated, but the initramfs didnβt regenerate properly, and my system has crashed twice so far. For now, Iβm just waiting for the next update because Iβm a bit lazy to fix it myself.
Hello, joining to connect with other devs :)
Hey Kat. Hope you are well. Welcome to the Dev.to Community!
π Hi! I'm RafaΕ from Poland.
I just built Queryra - AI search for WordPress that trains
on YOUR content, not the entire internet.
I'm here to share my journey building a SaaS and learn
from this awesome community.
Nice to meet you all! π
helloooo from my grave. i am new in this, so please don't bite me
βͺ(Β΄β½β½ο½)
Heyy everyoneππ½
I'm new to programming, joined the Dev community to learn more about web Dev & Game Dev and also to interact with great minds.
Iβve gone all-in on Gemini, and somehow ended up here as a "developer." I donβt always know what I'm doing (mostly don't know), but Iβm making it work and learning faster than ever.
I'm driven by years of fighting 'cookie-cutter' marketing apps like HubSpot and Salesforce. I want to build things from the ground up that are actually fast and secure, rather than being stuck in those rigid systems.
Whether itβs for a garage door repairman or a forward-thinking SaaS, I want to deliver things the way I see fit. Thatβs been the best part: seeing things come to fruition that I used to just cry about in frustration over a drink. It feels good to finally see the light! And let me tell you, it's lookin' pretty good.
When I read discussions about generative AI, most focus on moments when systems get things wrong β or on increasingly elaborate prompt engineering to make them behave better.
Iβm more interested in something else: understanding the structural limitations of generative AI, how those limitations show up in real use, and what happens when we design systems or workflows around them.
I use small experiments, observations, and failures as starting points, then write short essays about what I find. My hope is that others who build, teach, or rely on these systems will find the patterns useful β or at least worth questioning.
I'm hoping that this effort will be a good contribution to this community.
Hello! Just learned from the Odin Project, hyped to be here and meet more people to learn from! My goal is to find my path to the career I love, and from there become a Full Stack Developer!
Hey, I'm Charley. An old guy that's been working in tech since 98. I've tried a couple other jobs along the way but always end up back in tech. Are you in tech by choice? lol
