Hello everyone! I am Maame. I am a Computer Science student at Queen Mary University of London and will graduate in 2027.
I use this space to write about my DevOps From Scratch series. My main goal is to stop just following tutorials. I want to understand how the systems I build actually work. I like sharing the difficult parts of a project like bugs, crashes, and the time I spend fixing configuration files. I do not only show the finished work.
What I am doing now
Linux and Systems: I am learning terminal commands to see how things work under the hood.
System Reliability: I am learning how to build golden paths so that development is more stable.
Building in Public: I enjoy connecting with others who are also sharing their learning and projects.
I am always open to new connections, working together, or talking about system design and automation. If you are also learning as you go, let us connect!
Can I just add for any newcomers that @maame-codes is certainly worth a follow if you're new to the sector, and DevOps in particular. She is one of the many wonderful writers you're about to discover here on DEV.
Thanks for the tip.
Thank you so much for the kind words Richard! It really means a lot coming from you. Honestly, you are an amazing writer as well, I’ve always admired how you take really complex technical topics and turn them into stories that are actually fun to read. Your perspective is always so refreshing.
Wow, thank you! Your words just made my day!
Thank you for the tip. I definitely need them! 😂💗
If there is any particular language or technology you need help with, Mulisha, just let us know. One of us will know the answer I'm sure! The community can probably point you in the right direction of great resources to boot!
Thanks Richard! Great recommendation!
Welcome to DEV! I look forward to reading your thoughts on DevOps.
Thank you, Chris :)
Hi Maame I love your DevOps From Scratch series – sharing the real bugs and crashes makes it super relatable. I'm also in full 'build to learn mode with CLI tools
That is such a massive compliment Cesar, thank you! I’ve always felt that if you only show the perfect final version of a project, you’re not really teaching, you’re just performing. Real learning in general happens when everything is on fire 😂.
Since you're in "build to learn" mode with CLI tools, you are honestly doing exactly what pays off most in the long run. There is a specific kind of "muscle memory" you get from the terminal that you just can't get from a GUI.
I feel exactly the same way — it’s only when you fully dive into it that everything clicks and makes sense
Rightly so!
Okay, let's learn from each other
Sure thing :)
Hello Maame! Love the "stop just following tutorials" mindset. Understanding the systems under the hood is what separates good engineers. Keep sharing the bugs and crashes, that's where the real learning happens.
Thank you loan G for the kind words:)
welcome
Thank you Ravi :)
Hello everyone
I am new here.
Welcome Sachin, I hope you enjoy DEV.
Greetings, sachin. Welcome to the community here at DEV! What brought you here, if you don’t mind me asking? Do you already have some coding experience, or are you just starting out? Either way, you’re in the right place -there’s a thriving community of developers at every stage of their learning journey!
I am a software developer with over six years of experience. I was referred here by ChatGPT, which recommended that I read DEV's article on this platform.
You're not alone, that's becoming quite a common occurance, and not a bad thing either. Hope you feel right at home here and feel you can share some of your experiences. Again, welcome!
Hello sachin, enjoy !!
Hey Sachin. Welcome aboard!
Any projects you are working on? Any plans on your first post? Regardless, welcome!
Currently, I don't have any projects or posts, but I will be starting soon.
Hey everyone,
I'm Sergei :) I'm a software engineer with 16+ years of experience. I've seen a lot already, but I'm still very passionate about engineering. Mostly working on web (Python, TS, Go, etc.) but not limited with it.
Also big fan of videogames, cooking and football (YNWA <3).
Happy to be part of the community!
Greetings, Sergi. Welcome to the DEV Community. Happy to have you onboard! As a budding Pythonista myself, always pleased to see someone with knowledge of Python join!
Hope to be reading about some of your experiences in the field of software engineering soon!
Hey Sergei! Welcome to the community! 16+ years into software engineer is impressive! I'm glad you had a great journey in the engineering field so far! What is your favorite video game? Additionally, what tips/advice would you give if someone wants to be in SWE? Again, welcome!
Hello! I'm Gwynne, a lifelong learner currently in a "learn to develop" phase of that lifelong learning and I decided I want to do it in public. Returned to college after a 20 year pause to finish my bachelor's degree a couple years ago, and I'll graduate with a bachelor's in philosophy with a minor in anthropology next spring. I'm self-employed as a content creator with occasional freelance writing and editing to supplement income along that, and I'm adding development to my skillset both to add potential income opportunities and also because I want to build useful apps and fun games for myself that might also be useful and fun for others.
Hey Gwynne! Welcome to the community. Hope you are well!
Looks like you had a great journey so far! What apps are you planning on building in particular? Nevertheless, hope you journey goes well on Dev.to!
I've got a few ideas for games that I want to create, along with wanting to be able to create useful-to-me apps since my own life and content are super niche.
Greetings, Gwynne. Welcome to the community here at DEV. Lifelong learning is so important and something many of us don't realise until later in life, I'd admire the fact it is something you've always done it seems. Are you using any particular resources to aid you on your current learning journey?
Right now, I'm taking a python programming class as a gen ed elective towards the philosophy degree I'm finishing up. I'm also working through the boot.dev course because gamification really works for me. Also starting some Frontend Mentor projects to brush up my rusty html and css skills. And lots of googling when I'm stuck on stuff. AI can be helpful, but I also want the skills not to depend on it.
Impressive stuff, Gwynne. And your fundamentals-first approach will really give you the foundation you need to build on in the long-run. Well done!
Hello Gwynne,
I just wanted to reach out to you because we have a lot in common. I am new here too, I also LOVE learning new things and at that point where I think it's essential to learn web development. I don't have a degree per say but I have over 20 certifications/skills in all kinds of different things. I also love writing and am trying to run a Substack Blog but it's a lot more work than I anticipated. I think my ideas I wanted to write about will take a lot of research and piecing together. Time I am short of at this moment but hope to get something published soon. It would be amazing to get paid for my writing.
Anyways, feel free to reach out to me on my profile or wherever if you just want to talk about your wed dev journey.
If I don't hear from you I wish you the best and most success in your career and life.
-Cassie-
Welcome to the DEV Community, Cassie. It sounds like you have an amazing mix of skills and a real passion for learning. Running a blog can definitely be a lot of work, but it sounds like your ideas will make it worth it. Excited to see what you share here!
Hey Cassie! Welcome aboard! As Richard mentioned, you have a lot of accomplishments you have made so far! Wish for you the best on your journey as well!
Hey Techiee
Engineer working on real-time AI systems mostly voice agents and low-latency architectures.
Here to learn, share notes, and dive deeper into agentic systems.
Welcome to DEV!
Thanks Chris!
Welcome Victor!
Yoo Victor! Real-time AI voice agents sound 🔥what frameworks are you using for low-latency stuff? Super curious, as I'm grinding full-stack but dipping into AI integrations lately. Welcome aboard! 👋"
Thanks man, appreciate it 👋
For low latency, we’re mostly using Python + FastAPI with WebSockets for streaming. The real work happens around handling media flow properly — especially interruption handling and keeping inference close to the stream.
What kind of AI integrations are you experimenting with?
Hey Victor! Welcome welcome! Anything in particular you are building?
Hello 👋 I dabbled on low-latency AI last year a little. But mostly worked in the RAG and document processing space. It was a lot of fun! Good luck on your learning, and cheers 🍻
Hi everyone! 👋 I’m Luigi.

Hi Luigi 👋. Welcome to the community. I found my comfort corner here. Hope you find yours too ♥️
Thanks! It definitely feels like a great place to share my coding journey.
Since I'm a beginner, I wanted to ask: what’s your advice for starting out? Should I focus more on writing posts, interacting with the community, or both? I’d love to hear your tips!
That’s awesome 😊. I’d say start by getting comfortable. Read, observe, see how people share. No rush.
When you feel ready, just document what you’re learning. Even small wins count. And definitely interact too, conversations help a lot.
No pressure. Just show up and grow at your own pace.
Thanks a lot for the advice! 'Small wins count' is exactly what I needed to hear right now. I'll take it slow, keep learning, and start interacting more with this amazing community. See you around!
Both, You need to write it helps you learn code. Then commenting on other posts helps people to see you.
Follow tags that interest you, you'll see more useful content that way,
Welcome to DEV!
"That makes perfect sense! I'll make sure to balance writing and commenting. I'm going to update my followed tags right now to focus on #frontend and #javascript. Thanks again for the warm welcome and the great advice!
And I'm glad you did, ujja. You're an asset to this community!
Sure is a good resource uija!
Welcome Luigi 💪
Thanks Cesar
Welcome to the community here at DEV, Luigi. That is quite the pivot! Glad to have you here! Do you mind me asking what learning resources you're using - if any?
You might appreciate my post - DEV 101: Engage, Comment, and Share Your Ideas - if you're looking for some general advice in how best to engage with the platform.
Looking forward to hearing more from you! Best of luck!
Hi Michael! Thanks for the warm welcome!
Currently, I'm focusing on** HTML, CSS, and Bootstrap**, and I'm planning to dive into _JavaScript _very soon. I'm using resources like FreeCodeCamp and MDN Web Docs, but I'm also finding that the best way to learn is by building small projects and documenting them right here on
Sometimes I struggle with the logic, but I'm embracing the challenge! I'll definitely check out your 'DEV 101' post—it sounds exactly like what I need right now.
Thanks for the support!
Well, Luigi, as someone who re-engaged with freeCodeCamp at the start of the year myself, you're already using a great resource - alongside MDN Web Docs of course.
You may want to check out The Odin Project as well, at some point in the future but you're already on the right track by building small projects - way to go!
Thanks in advance for checking out my DEV 101 post. I wrote it to help give newcomers to the platform - such as yourself - a little bit of guidance, Consider it extended onboarding!
Thanks, Michael! It’s great to know that you are using freeCodeCamp too. It makes me feel more confident about my learning path.
I’ve heard great things about The Odin Project, so I will definitely check it out in the future! For now, I'm focusing on finishing my current projects with HTML and CSS.
I'm reading your DEV 101 post right now—it's exactly the kind of guidance I need as a newcomer. Thanks for the encouragement and for the warm welcome!
No problem, Luigi, happy to help! It's Richard, by the way.
Yes, it's always good to know someone else is using the same resource as yourself, I post about my journey quite reguarly, through my Learning with freeCodeCamp series - may contain spoilers though!
I aim to return to The Odin Project myself later this year. I tried it a couple of years ago but it didn't click for me then - mainly because I wasn't ready. Will be interesting to hear what you think about it, if you ever try it yourself.
Very glad to hear my DEV 101 post resonated. After spending the last few weeks in these welcome threads, I figured something like that wouldn't do any harm.
Hey Luigi! Hope you are well. Welcome to the community! You will find great minded individuals who will share similar experiences as you! Hope your journey goes well!
Hello Luigi, welcome, it's a fun an fulfilling journey!
Hey everyone! 👋
I'm Solomon, a web developer and software engineer. I've been building stuff with HTML/CSS/JS, React (and lately diving into Next.js + Tailwind), and backend bits with Node.js/Express or Python when I feel adventurous.
What brought me here: I stumbled on DEV.to while hunting for real-world advice on modern web dev patterns (beyond just Stack Overflow snippets), and I loved how supportive and chill the community feels no gatekeeping, just people sharing what works (and what crashes spectacularly 😂). I'm here to learn from you all, share my own messy-but-working projects, and maybe post some tutorials from a practical dev perspective (like dealing with spotty internet while deploying apps, real struggle!).
Fun fact about me: I once built a full e-commerce site for a local business using only free tools and zero budget... and it actually made sales on day one! Taught me that shipping imperfect code beats perfect code that never launches.
Super excited to be part of this penguin squad 🐧 One of us! One of us!
If you're new too, drop your stack or what you're grinding on, let's connect! Or if you've got tips for someone grinding full-stack in 2026, hit me with 'em.
Warm welcomes to all the new folks—let's make some noise in the comments! ❤️
webdev #newhere
Hey Solomon! Welcome to the community! Hope you are having a great day! Seems like we both same similar technologies we are working with. What inspired you to become a web developer/SWE? Nevertheless, welcome!
Thanks, I appreciate the welcome! 🙌🏽
I got into web dev because I wanted to build real products that solve problems and create opportunities. Still learning and building every day.
What inspired you?
Sounds awesome! For me, I want to build things and visually see it on the web instead of doing it in the terminal. When I first started out, we have been doing printing stuff in terminal in my intro course instead of building a mini app and deploying it. Also, it's just a good way to show creativity and I love to have it when it is accessible to others to see as well!
That makes a lot of sense, I feel you on that 💯
Seeing something you built live on the web hits different compared to just terminal output. It makes everything feel real.
I also love that creativity part — mixing logic + design + impact.
What kind of projects do you enjoy building the most?
also I have this test project on my that I'm seeking contributors so we can bring up something to the web together environment all set up...
Right now I am building a Chrome Extension to detect AI images. It's pretty much done and I just need to Tune the ML Model to predict better.
Let me know more about the Test Projects when it's ready! Cant wait to see your developments!
Welcome to the community here at DEV, Mr Solomon! That's quite some experience you have and the kind of journey alot of us aspire to! Glad to have you onboard and look forward to you sharing your own experiences on the platform - though I see you've posted some cotent already!
Thanks Richard! Appreciate the warm welcome, yeah, I've got a couple posts up already, mostly on React/Next.js tips. What's your current focus/stack these days? Excited to learn from folks here!
Well, if you ignore my early days coding in BASIC and an attempt at game development from the same era, I undertook the Reponsive Web Design certification at freeCodeCamp a few years ago. I also found an interest in Python at the same time. Unfortunately, I let all that knowledge lapse, so decided to re-engage with freeCodeCamp at the start of the year and joined the DEV Community at the same time to keep my learning consistent. It's worked out really well, as I gained something I hadn't considered - the support of my peers.
Thanks for sharing that, super inspiring to hear how you bounced back with freeCodeCamp this year and leaned into the community for consistency. Ignoring the early BASIC days? Haha, we've all got those "what was I thinking" eras 😂.
I totally get the lapse part, life gets in the way, but restarting with peer support makes a huge difference. DEV.to has been clutch for me too; seeing real devs share wins (and epic fails) keeps the motivation high while I'm grinding full-stack stuff.
Quick question: What's one freeCodeCamp section or project that's really clicked for you this time around and helped rebuild momentum? Or any habit that's kept you consistent? I'm always hunting for those "aha" resources.
Glad we're both re-engaging, here's to more consistent coding and community vibes in 2026! 🚀🐧
To be honest with you, it's been the latest version of the curriculum itself - version 10. The Responsive Web Design Certification was always good but it seems they've really addressed the theory this time around and reinforced such with workshops and labs. The section on accessibility has been the real eye-opener for me and something I really want to ensure I comply with in the future.
In further regard to consistency, joining DEV - to be honest. What started as a way to write about freeCodeCamp lessons has grown into something far more than I expected - a real sense of community!
Indeed, best of luck!
"Welcome aboard, Solomon! 🚀 Love that e-commerce story—so true about shipping imperfect code > perfect code that never sees the light of day. Your stack is solid; Next.js + Tailwind is a killer combo. Can't wait to see what you build and share! 🐧"
Thanks a lot Harsh I'm looking forward in sharing what I'm building as soon as done
Thanks! Can’t wait to see what you’re building — I’m sure it’s going to be awesome!
Hello Mr. Solomon, making sales on the first day for any app is huge win. Ship fast, and iterate is way.
I'm working on a monetization platform that cuts the gap from prototype to getting paid down to minutes.
Hit me up if you want to know more.
Thanks order and chaos appreciate the shoutout! First-day sales always feel surreal, especially when you've been grinding in the shadows. 100% agree: ship fast + iterate is the only way to stay sane and actually make progress.
Your monetization platform sounds like a game-changer, minutes from prototype to paid? That's the missing piece for a lot of us who build fast but hate the slow revenue ramp.
Curious how it works? focused on mobile/web apps, one-click integrations, or something else? Drop a link or quick overview if you're down.
“Hi everyone! I Am Harsh 👋 I write articles for beginners on Python and Java programming. I focus on making coding simple and fun, so even if you’re just starting out, you can quickly grasp the concepts. Would love to hear what topics you’d like me to cover next!”
Welcome to DEV, Harsh.
"Thank you so much for the warm welcome! I’m really excited to be part of the Dev.to community. I’m currently working on a few small projects around [your field or tech—e.g., web apps, SaaS, or AI tools], and I’ll be sharing updates and insights here soon. Can’t wait to get feedback from this amazing community!"
Welcome Harsh to the Dev.to Community! Looking forward to see what you post! Any projects you are currently building? It would be nice to see your work here! I bet everyone on this platform will love to see it! Nevertheless, welcome!
"Thank you so much for the warm welcome!
Hey, Harsh. Glad to see you found you way to the latest Weclome Thread! Been enjoying your posts - though I do have to catch-up with your latest. Personally, I enjoy reading content like that - building projects - but you have a pretty good balance going, so keep it up!
Thanks! 😊 Really glad to read your message. I’m also trying to keep a good balance while sharing new stuff consistently. Feedback like yours definitely keeps me motivated.
Hey Harsh, would love you to cover monetization for beginners. With all everyone and their mother vibe coding the next billion dollar SaaS apps, have you got any tips for getting paid safely and securely?
Hey! Thanks for the suggestion. For beginners looking to monetize, the key is to start small and focus on secure payment channels like Stripe, PayPal, or direct bank transfers. Also, always make sure you have clear terms, invoicing, and agreements to protect yourself. Growing sustainably is better than rushing for big revenue.
Hi everyone, just getting going with the tech world. This looks like a fun place! 🤘
It is a fun place Mulisha, Welcome to the community.
Thank you very much!
Hey Mulisha! Welcome to the community! See that you are a Minnesotan! So am I!
It is a fun place as Chris mentioned! A lot of bright-minded people on this platform and a lot to learn to! Hope your journey goes well for you! :D
Thank you!
Welcome to the community here at DEV, Mulisha! I must say, I loved the outlook you expressed on your profile. I think you'll find a warm and inviting home here! Take your time to settle in and I look forward to hearing more about your journey in the future!
Thank you very much. 💗 I was a little nervous about joining since I'm not a tech wizard lol, but I hope to find people who can help me along the way.
Oh, you will. Plenty of lovely people here!
Thanks!
Welcome, oh boy is it?!
I see that by your name. 💗Thank you!
Hello everyone! 👋
I'm Nuno, a software developer with 5+years of experience, and new to the platform.
I enjoy working with both legacy systems and new technologies — basically, I like solving problems within real-world constraints.
I spend time tinkering with homelab projects and learning new things. Always open to connecting with other developers who enjoy sharing what they learn.
Just published my first article here about Java 8 concurrency patterns.
Welcome Nuno, Enjoy ! I'll definitely read your post. I love Java and learning more about it from the inside out. Thanks for sharing
Thanks Cesar, and I really hope you enjoy the read !
Hey Nuno! Welcome to the Dev.to community! Will take a look on your first article (In the bookmarks!).
Any goals you have plan for this year? Hope your journey goes well!
Thank you for the warm welcome and for bookmarking the article! I appreciate it, and hope you enjoy the read !
As for goals, I'm planning to focus on a mix of building and writing this year. I want to spend more time tinkering with projects and then sharing that knowledge to connect with the community.
Hi everyone! 👋 I'm Georgy.
I'm a hardware and software engineer working with embedded systems, particularly ESP32 microcontrollers. I also have experience with Linux (Arch user here 🐧), DevOps, and security-focused development.
What brought me here:
I just released my first open-source project - SecureGen, a hardware TOTP authenticator and password manager built on ESP32 T-Display. It's been quite a journey dealing with BLE security, memory constraints, and encryption on embedded hardware.
What I'm learning:
What I want to share:
I'd love to write about the technical challenges of building security devices on ESP32 - things like:
Fun fact:
I originally started this project because I wanted a 2FA device I could actually trust - turns out building one from scratch teaches you way more about security than just using one! 😅
Looking forward to learning from this community and sharing what I discover along the way!
GitHub: github.com/Unix-like-SoN/SecureGen
Hackster.io: hackster.io/Unix-like-Son/securege...
Hey Georgy! Welcome to the community! Hope you are having a nice day!
Thank you for your formal introduction and the project you are working on! Sounds pretty advance for me, but glad that you shared your project and why you built it! Your Fun Fact makes sense since the only way you can trust a product is by building it yourself. Saves the headache and removes the irrational thought about getting hacked.
Well done!
ngl jealous of anyone building for ESP32, I've seen so many cool projects, but I know if I started, I'd fill my house up with electronics crap, and my wife would kick me out.
Hi everyone — Pascal here.
I’ve spent most of my career around tech, though rarely in a straight line. Along the way I’ve taught, managed restaurants, worked in import/export and sales — and kept building systems through all of it. That mix shaped how I work today: less interest in shiny frameworks, more in tools that survive real-world mess.
What I build mostly revolves around knowledge workflows, RAG systems, document processing, and pragmatic self-hosted infrastructure. If something has to handle administrative complexity and still make sense six months later, I’m interested.
I write because documenting a system is how I find its weak points. Most of what I share here are field notes from ongoing experiments — tested, broken, adjusted, rebuilt. Not polished demos, just honest traces of the work.
I’m here to read, share, and learn from others building durable systems with clear thinking behind them.
Hi, I'm Peter. I'm an Irish full-stack developer. I've been messing around with tech since I was a teenager. Studied game development, spent some time in VR and moved into web dev from there.
I decided I want to start writing articles about what I do and this seemed like the right place for it.
I just posted my first article. Feels good. 😁
Hey Peter! Welcome to the community! Also a Full Stack Dev here!
Glad you made your first post on "Your IDE is an Attack Vector"! Will check it out soon (Currently bookmarked!).
Any projects you are working on currently? Favorite Stack? Regardless, hope your journey goes well!
I'm working on a meetup app for geeks that I plan to launch in the Summer. It started as a small idea but is currently a multi-project monorepo with shared packages and all that good stuff. It has been a lot of fun and made me face new challenges around tooling.
My favorite tech stack is a harder question to answer. I like the T3 stack's "typescript front-to-back" ideology a lot. I think AI is really bringing that mindset to the forefront. I really like Laravel and Nest too. I think Mature + Opinionated is a very good combination.
Sounds awesome! Are you planning on Showcasing it on Dev.to? I would love to see it!
Hope your journey goes well! Will look into T3 stack a bit more! :D
Unlikely to showcase it before launch. Since it is a meetup app, it is dependent on the network effect, so needs to be rolled out slowly city-by-city to avoid the cold-start problem.
As a solo dev, network effect apps are a bad idea, but the only good idea I ever had relied on that bad idea! 🤣
Greetings, Peter. Welcome to the community here at DEV. That is quite the journey you've had - impressive. Writing is a great way to share your knowledge and experiences and I'm glad you've decided to do that here at DEV - will be sure to check-out your first post!
Thanks Richard,
This place is awesome. I only ever saw random articles that got reposted elsewhere. I didn't realize there was a thriving dev community all interacting with each other's posts and content. I read your article yesterday when I was orientating myself (Stack Overflow - Time for a Change?) and now here you are replying to me!
I should have gotten involved sooner!
Hey Dev.to 👋
I’m Ivory.
I’ve been building games for a while now experimenting, shipping prototypes, breaking things, rebuilding them better. Every project has taught me something different.
Right now I’m working on what might be the hardest thing I’ve ever tried to build.
It’s my latest game. And honestly… it’s stretching me.
Not just technically, but mentally.
This one is bigger. The systems are deeper. The expectations are higher. I’m pushing myself into areas I haven’t fully mastered yet better architecture, smarter AI behaviors, cleaner design decisions, more intentional world-building.
There are days it flows.
There are days I question everything.
But I think that’s a good sign.
If it doesn’t scare you a little, it probably isn’t big enough.
I joined Dev.to because I want to document the journey, the wins, the mistakes, the rebuilds. I want to learn from other devs who are in the trenches building something that feels slightly out of reach.
If you’re working on a project that feels bigger than you… we’re probably walking a similar path.
Looking forward to connecting.
🅸 🆅 🅾 🆁 🆈
Greetings, Ivory. Welcome to the DEV Community. Firstly, the very best of luck with your latest game. I think you're doing a brilliant thing by joing the platform to document your journey with it. That will act as motivation for yourself and give members here a good insight. Looking forward to reading more!
Appreciate the positive energy.
Hey Ivory! Hope you are well. Welcome to the Dev.to community! Glad you join to document your journey! Is there a specific engine you are using for this project of yours?
Unreal Engine for sure. Also working with Claude and visual studios.
Unreal Engine is great! I never used it since it's too advance for me. I been using Godot or rarely Unity when doing Game Development.
Hope your journey goes well on Dev.to!
Appreciate the love my friend. Looking forward to Dev.to becoming a a great place to chat and collaborate.

Hi Koichi 👋
Great to meet you! Flutter for 5+ years is solid experience. Looking forward to reading your posts about business and game apps.
Good luck on your English exam, you’ve got this 💪
Looking forward to speaking with you soon.
Welcome to the DEV Community, kouichi. Indeed, you've found the right place to post about your journey and experiences. You'll soon feel right at home here - I'm sure of it. Good luck with the exam!
Hello, I'm Yessica. I would like to learn and share what I am learning in the community. I know I can and should take this step to continue strengthening my knowledge. Now, being able to have this tool, GitHub Copilot, I know I can have an ally.
Greetings, Yessica. Welcome to the community here at DEV. Is there a particular language or technology that you are learning right now? Regardless, you've made a great decision joining the platform, where I'm sure you'll find all the support and encourage you need to progress even further.
Hey Yessica! Welcome aboard to the community! Hope you are well. Any projects you are currently working on! Nevertheless, hope your journey here goes well!
Hy everyone !!
I’m an 18 y/o developer currently exploring freelancing and building my presence on LinkedIn . Nowadays deep diving into JavaScript, React, browser internals, and how things actually work under the hood.
I’ve been on dev.to for a couple of weeks now and honestly, I love the vibe here, it feel like such an inspiring space to learn.
I’m still figuring out how to properly start writing, but I’m excited to be here, learn from all of you, and hopefully contribute back to the community soon.
Looking forward to connecting with you all !!
Greetings, Omaima. Welcome to the community here at DEV. It’s great to see your enthusiasm for learning and diving deep into JS and React. This platform is definitely a supportive space, and I’m sure you’ll have plenty to contribute as you keep exploring.
thank you so much!!
I’m genuinely excited to be here and learn from such an amazing community
You're more than welcome. I'm sure you'll feel right at home here very soon!
Hi everyone!
I'm Hernan, a backend dev with 5+ years in the field and a cybersecurity enthusiast driven by building tools that provide genuine value.
Currently, I'm working on django-orbit (labs.wearehik.com/django-orbit - github.com/astro-stack/django-orbit), a new way to bring deep observability to local Django environments. Alongside this, I’ve built fast-dj—the most efficient way to launch enterprise applications in minutes (labs.wearehik.com/fast-dj).
Through my agency, HIK Labs (labs.wearehik.com), I focus on developing products that streamline the Django ecosystem, specifically fine-tuned for startups and entrepreneurs. Also I have an Agency working for LATAM (wearehik.com)
I’m looking to connect with others to level up, share ideas, and exchange the value I’ve gathered over the years. If you have feedback or just want to chat, feel free to reach out!
See you around!

Welcome to the DEV Community, Hernan. As a budding Pythonista myself, I have a passing knowledge of Django, so would be very interested in seeing how django-orbit progresses. Hopefully you'll feel able to post about your journey here on DEV, I'm sure lots of us would love to read about your journey and experiences.
Thanks for the support, Richard! Seeing interest in django-orbit is a huge motivator. I’m looking forward to sharing my experiences and learning from everyone here on DEV. Talk soon!
You're welcome, Hernan! I'm sure I won't be the only one interested in some Django-related goodness either!
Hey Hernan! Welcome to the community! Hope you are well. What is your favorite part of being a back-end developer? 5+ years into that field is impressive. Nevertheless, welcome aboard and hope your journey goes well!
Francis! Thx for your reply. My favorite part was the emphasis on the effort and sacrifice required every day to get where you want to be. For me, that meant countless late nights, exhausted mornings, and doing everything possible just to break into the industry. Along the way, I’ve met amazing people (the 'invisible heroes' within companies who keep everything running). I was also fortunate enough to leverage the pandemic to focus and grow. So, it's a mix of 80% or 90% of effort and 10% of magic and the good eye for opportunities.
Even without a formal degree, I’ve always believed that anyone with the time and the right environment can reach any level they desire; it’s simply about sitting down and giving it your all. That same mindset drives me today as I build valuable software and find my path as an indie hacker. I’m also continuing to grow HIK and HIK Labs, my design and software agency and factory, and I’m aiming to complete several cybersecurity certifications this year. I’ve always been a fan of the field, and it’s the next major pivot in my career.
Thanks for the welcome and feel free to reach out anytime!
Hey everyone! 👋
I’m Pradeep from Nepal, a junior frontend developer focused on building web and mobile apps using React.
I have professional experience with React and React Native, and my tech stack includes Next.js, TypeScript, Zustand, TanStack Query (Axios), React Hook Form with Zod, Tailwind CSS, Unistyles, and i18n. I’ve also explored React Flow, Three.js, and Framer Motion.
Currently, I am sharpening my frontend skills, and I plan to transition into backend development and Python for AI/ML in the near future.
Welcome to the community here at DEV, pradeep. That's quite the tech stack you have there, I'm excited to read more about your journey in the days, weeks, and months ahead. Best of luck with your eventual pivot into backend development too!
thank you sir
You're more than welcome, pradeep!
Hey Pradeep! Welcome to the community! Hope you are well!
React is great and I am currently honing my skills into that library! I cannot wait to see your developments here on this great platform!
Hi! I recently started learning Godot and GDScript. I made a small game back in November last year, but then life happened, so now I’m basically starting from scratch.
I used to program “back in the day” when HTML, CSS, and JavaScript were the main tools. Later I moved to TypeScript, and for the past few years I’ve mostly worked with Python, both privately and professionally, mainly in AI.
If you have any tips on Godot or GDScript, feel free to pop by, or if you just want to hang out. At the moment I only have a welcome post and a plan on what my next, very small game will be.
Thanks for reading.
Greetings, depoco. Welcome to the community here at DEV. Planning to dip my toes into game devlopment with Godot Engine myself - one day - so look forward to your sharing you journey and experiences with the rest of the community. As @francistrdev said, itch.io is a brilliant platform for indie devs!
Thanks for your reply! Have a wonderful friday
You too!
Hey Depoco! Welcome to the Community! Hope you are well.
I have some experience with Godot. Was curious how deep are you into Godot? I was also wondering if you publish your game on itch.io. It's a good platform to get notice.
Regardless, welcome aboard!
Nice! Not too deep at all. I've been focusing more on GDScript and finding it relatively easy to understand, so that's a big plus. Yeah, I uploaded my first game to itch. Check out the post I made, there's a link there.
Thank you for welcoming me!
Hello Namaste Everyone. I am new here and so much excited to learn from you guys

Adding on to @richardpascoe post, heard that you are learning MERN. Any projects you are currently working on that involves using this Stack? Again, Welcome!
Thank you very much for the warm welcome, sir. Currently, I am working on a personal project for my portfolio called JUMAA, which is a clone of Airbnb with a unique UI design. At this stage, I have not yet implemented authentication and authorization, but I plan to add these features soon.
Sounds good! Saw you made your post about JUMAA. Can't wait to see more developments from you :D
Hi everyone! I’m Alazar, a C/C++ developer who loves building things from the ground up. Some people know me as “TheWheelReinventor” because I enjoy diving deep and creating everything from scratch. I’m really excited to join this community and can’t wait to share and learn together!
Greetings, Alazar. Welcome to the DEV Community! Sounds like you have quite a bit to share - look forward to reading those posts! Either way, I know you'll feel right at home here!
Thanks a lot! I’m happy to be here and can’t wait to start sharing and connecting with everyone.
Hi, I'm Guilherme Lorenz, but you can call me @theminimalcreator. I’ve just rebranded my digital presence to reflect exactly what I do: building robust, minimal, and high-impact digital products.
I didn't start with code. For 7 years, I was a Product Designer. I learned the hard way that if the user doesn't understand it, it's broken. But I also realized that if the backend is slow or unreliable, the most beautiful UI in the world can't save the experience.
So, I went deep into Engineering. For the past 6 years, I’ve been architecting systems using the robustness of C# and .NET , because when things are critical, strong typing and solid structure beat the "hype of the week" every time.
Let’s Connect!
Hey Guilherme! Welcome to the community! Hope you are well.
Glad your journey in engineering has been going well so far! What is your favorite part about learning engineering in the past 6 years? In any case, welcome!
Greetings, Guilherme. Welcome to the DEV Community! Thanks for the verbose introduction - always helpful! A rare hybrid indeed, and glad that you're here. Look forward to reading more about your journey in the future!
Hi! I'm not very sociable and I don't usually participate in social media, but here I am... treat me kindly.
Inevitably, if you want to share or learn about others, you have to go through this.
Cheers!
Welcome to DEV, Fran - really glad you’re here. No worries at all, you’re in good company. This is a genuinely kind and supportive community, especially for those who don’t usually enjoy the social media side of things.
Hey Fran! Welcome to the community!
No need to be very sociable! Take as much time as you need in the learning process! Everyone here is very kind and motivational and I believe you will find connections here! @richardpascoe can vouch for me :)
Indeed, I can!
Dev.to topluluğuna katıldığım için çok mutluyum.

Hey Ramazan! Welcome!
Hi everyone! 👋
I’m happy to be here and really enjoying reading all of your introductions. It’s super encouraging to see people at different stages of their journey sharing honestly about what they’re learning and struggling with.
I’m looking forward to learning from you, joining the conversations, and hopefully adding something helpful of my own over time. 🙂
Welcome to the DEV Communityy, Crajax! A lovely opening comment from you - many thanks! I'm sure you'll find a lovely home here.
Do you have any particular area of interest - a language or technology?
Hey Crajax! Welcome aboard! Hope you are well! Any projects you are currently working on? Again, Welcome!
Hello! I'm Tj.
I started (trying) to learn how to code since a few months. I started because i'd love to make a career switch, which im still trying to work towards. I've mainly become familiar with Python and HTML for now.
Id love to hear how y'all got started, since it all looks pretty daunting rn as a beginner 😅
Welcome to the DEV Community, TJ. What resources are you using to learn Python and HTML, if you don't mind me asking. If you weren't aware of it already, freeCodeCamp is worth checking out - I'd say the Responsive Web Design Certification is perfect for you. I have also posted some Free Python Resources that you might like to take a look at.
Hi! Thanks for the reccomendation :)
I started freecodecamps basics course some time back. All the rest has been mostly youtube/random documentation/automate the boring stuff (the book) and some gamified debugging with chatgpt
. Ill definatly check out the list too!
You're more than welcome. Hope that it helps!
Hi everyone! My name is Luke.
I’m joining DEV because I’ve decided to dive headfirst into the world of programming. I’m brand new to this, but I’m incredibly eager to learn, break a few things (in code, hopefully!), and understand how this whole ecosystem works
Welcome to the community here at DEV, Luke. Do you have any particular language, or technology, in mind? Have you found any resources that you are planning to use, or are currently using? Best of luck!

Hey Radu! Welcome to the community!
To add on and to clarify for @richardpascoe, it is a Three.js 3D game where it is simply you are attacking enemies coming towards you and it seems to have a day/night cycle.
Nevertheless, hope your journey goes well!
Hey Radu! Welcome to the DEV Community!
Did I just spot a 3D browser game using Three.js? Totally a guess, but it sounds super cool! Can’t wait to see what you share here - glad you joined!

LostBeard (Todd) here. My obsession with computers started 40 years ago with a Commodore 64 and BASIC. These days, I’m focused on pushing the limits of C# and Blazor WebAssembly. See what I’m building over on GitHub: GitHub/LostBeard
Welcome to the DEV Community, Todd - or should I say LostBeard. We'll have a similar start by the sounds of it, though I moved away from coding for many years. Still, will be sure to check out your GitHub!
Hey Todd! Welcome to the community! Hope your journey goes well!
Hi everyone! I'm Mel and I have been working as a Java backend engineer for almost 6 years. My main goal here is to learn something new and build projects outside of work. I also want to learn more about systems design or any cool/quirky skills from all of you. Happy to be here and looking forward to chatting with fellow devs!
Hello, Mel. Great to have you here as part of the DEV Community! It's great that you want to try something new and build non-work-related projets. Do you have a language or technology in mind, or sticking to Java?
Hey Mel! Welcome to the community! Adding on to @richardpascoe comment, any projects you are currently building. Welcome again!
Hello, I’m a full-stack developer with a strong foundation in building scalable web applications from the ground up. I work across both frontend and backend — designing intuitive user experiences while architecting secure, high-performance systems behind the scenes. My stack includes modern JavaScript frameworks, API development, database design, cloud deployment, and payment integrations.
I’m constantly learning and refining my skills. Technology evolves quickly, and I make it a priority to stay ahead — whether that’s adopting new frameworks, improving performance optimization strategies, strengthening security practices, or exploring better system design patterns. I enjoy solving complex problems and turning ideas into functional, production-ready products.
Beyond just writing code, I think in terms of product, scalability, and long-term maintainability. I focus on building systems that are clean, efficient, and adaptable. Every project is an opportunity to improve, iterate, and learn something new.
Welcome to the DEV Community, Jive! It sounds like you have a solid full-stack foundation and a great mindset for building scalable, maintainable systems. Excited to see what you’ll share and create here!
Hey Jive! Welcome to the community! Also a Full Stack Dev here! What stack are you currently using? Any projects you like to share? Regardless, hope your journey at Dev.to goes great!
Hey Dev.to 👋
I'm Yurii - a software engineer from Ukraine 🇺🇦
I've got about two decades of experience under my belt, working with C++, Java, and Python across all kinds of domains: Medtech, Finance, Embedded, educational content, and volunteer projects. Most of my work revolves around high-performance, cross-platform systems - the kind with efficiency, reliability, and counting microseconds.
I'm here to connect with like-minded tech folks, explore potential collaborations, partnerships, interesting projects, and maybe potential customers or employers. Always open to meaningful conversations and ambitious ideas.
Looking forward to learning from this community and sharing what I can along the way! 🚀
Welcome to the community here at DEV, Yurii. Your experience across C++, Java, and Python - especially in high-performance, cross-platform systems - sounds incredible. Excited to have someone with your depth here, and I’m sure the community will benefit a lot. Looking forward to seeing the ideas and collaborations you spark!
And thanks you for sharing your first computer book experience in my post!
Hi everyone! I'm Vikas, a solo Unity Game Developer. I've been learning and develoing Unity Games Since over 5 years. I developed some games and published on Google play store. I tried to build large game solo which would generally either require a team or long development time by a consistent developers to produce a polished optimized engaging game. Hence I didn't do well in my projects and they look pretty amature. Now i've started considering my limitations. I'm at point where I either need to get freelancer work(can't get one on fiverr), or colaborate with indie developers(don't know how) or try to get a very low paying job(ain't getting any job offer on linkedn, I would personally visit several game dev studios). I'm leaning toward finding a job now and might focus fully in there if i get to be part of some good game projects. I might also keep developing my well researched long time one person doable unique game project (need to get the project idea yet) in my off work time. I would appreciate your insight on my path forward. Thank you for reading this post!
Greetings, Vikas, welcome to the DEV community!
Since you already have solid experience with Unity, I wouldn’t suggest switching engines. Instead, I’d recommend focusing on smaller, polished projects and sharing them on platforms like itch.io. That can be a great way to connect with other developers and get meaningful feedback - alongside the connections you build here.
I know that might sound counterintuitive since you’ve already published games on the Play Store, but at this stage, building relationships with other developers may be even more valuable than launching bigger projects. Strong connections often open doors to collaborations and job opportunities.
Wishing you the best on your journey!
Hi everyone,
I’m joining dev.to to stay on the pulse of where the industry is heading. I’ve been an engineer for over a decade now, but I still get that 'Day 1' excitement when exploring new tech.
I’m currently diving deep into Agentic AI / Rust / Node.js, and I’m looking forward to learning from all of you and sharing some of the lessons I’ve picked up along the way.
Happy to be here!
Hi everyone.
I’m Jay, founder of GobbleData and a Principle Solutions Architect working on analytics interpretation systems.
I’ve spent a lot of time working with GA4, SaaS platforms, and decision-support tooling, and I’m interested in how software can reduce the effort required to understand data.
Looking forward to learning from the community here.
Hello frens I’m Victor from Lagos Nigeria. I’m 20 y/o I’m a frontend developer…I’m on here to get more understanding on JavaScript, react and node.js. Just joined the dev community yesterday hoping I acquire all of that on here 🙏🏻💯
Hi :) I have seen a few interesting articles from this site. I currently fly solo looking after my client's platform, moving from an international team of thousands of developers after being made redundant last year. I figured I still need a dev community around me, and this seems like it could be it.
Greetings, Dawn. Indeed, welcome to the DEV Community. You'll feel at home here in no time, I am quite sure - plenty of friendly folks and the welcome is always warm!
Hello everyone,
I am Ashfaq Sadat, currently an 11th grade student from Bangladesh.
I am a passionate programmer, interested in Open Source Software and Startups. I also have a deep passion for robotics and engineering.
Hey DEV Community!
I'm Vanshika Rana, a DevRel Engineer jumping back into writing for myself because I genuinely miss it. There's something really satisfying about breaking down why certain dev tools just click with people while others get forgotten in a week.
I've been working in DevRel for a while now, and I keep noticing patterns in what makes developers actually enjoy using a product. It's rarely just about features or documentation. There's this whole layer of experience, positioning, and understanding what developers need before they even know they need it. That's the stuff I want to write about.
So here's what I'm planning to share here:
I want to dig into developer experience and what separates tools that become part of your daily workflow from ones that just sit there. I'm talking about the little things that add up to make something feel good to use.
I'll be writing about dev tools that are trending or catching my attention. Not just surface level overviews, but actually getting into what they're doing well, what could be better, and why they matter in the current landscape.
Product walkthroughs are definitely happening, but I'm less interested in basic setup tutorials and more interested in showing you why something is worth your time and how it fits into what you're already doing.
I have a lot of opinions about DevRel, product strategy, and the dev tools space in general, and I'm going to share them. Nothing too wild, just honest perspectives from someone who works in this world every day.
I'm also building out my freelance technical writing practice on the side. If you're working on a dev tool or product and need someone who can write content that actually speaks to developers without sounding like a marketing brochure, I'd love to chat.
Beyond writing, I'm really here to learn from all of you. This community has so much knowledge and experience, and I'm genuinely curious about what everyone is building, what problems you're solving, and what tools are making your life easier right now.
Looking forward to being part of this space and hopefully creating some content that's actually useful and interesting to read!
Greetings, Vanshika. Welcome to the DEV Community. Really like the focus on what makes tools stick in a developer’s workflow - that nuance often gets overlooked. I’d especially be interested in your take on the small UX decisions that separate "nice idea" from "daily driver."
Looking forward to your posts and perspectives!
Hello everyone! I am Shreesha. I am a Computer Science and Engineering student at VTU university, India and will graduate in mid 2026.
I plan to use this space to explore and learn and write about anything while I'm looking for . My main goal is to stop just consuming video tutorials and actually start building projects along improving my skills while looking for a entry level role to kick start my career as reliable Dev.
I'm currently interested in React, Django, AI/ML solutions, little bit of AWS and MongoDB.
I am always open for connections, working together, share ideas, and just to talk about coding and building up skills.
And I'm open for suggestions stepping into Dev world..!!
Hey Dev.to! 👋 Just a Python dev here who loves building things that actually work.
Lately, I’ve been deep in the world of Autonomous AI Agents. It’s one thing to see the news, but it’s another thing to actually build them for production. I’m here because I want to bridge the gap between "tech hype" and what we’re actually seeing in our terminals.
What I do:
Beyond agents, I spend most of my time on the "plumbing" that makes AI useful:
Current Experiments:
I’ve been pushing the limits of agentic workflows lately. Currently, I’m:
Beyond the Code:
I’m here to share what I’m building, talk shop about APIs, and learn from all of you. Looking forward to connecting with fellow builders!
Welcome to the community here at DEV, Ram. Love the focus on bridging hype and what actually runs in the terminal. The multi-agent orchestration sounds especially interesting - I’d definitely read a breakdown of how you’re managing delegation and tooling at that scale.
I’ve have a firm interest in Python myself, so always keen to see solid backend and systems work.
Looking forward to your posts!
Hi everyone! I would like to introduce myself as a tech learner. Being a part of the dev community I am looking for suggestions, advice to grow my tech skills in tech. As a web developer I build some of the projects but later find out that this is not my type. Currently, I am researching in AI while learning Data science don't know if I was doing right or it may be costlier to suddenly changing the track. But, it was fun studying and learning.
👋 Hello DEV!
I’m Gjergji — a product leader with roots in software development, customer success, and product strategy. At Flowhaven I’ve worn many hats, from hands-on technical and customer-facing roles to leading product initiatives shaping real workflows and teams.
In 2025 I served as Product Solutions Lead, and in 2026 I stepped into Product Lead, owning vision and exploring new ways of working, especially around human + AI collaboration. I’m fascinated by how AI fits into real work — so much that I’ve even started running retros with it as a “teammate”.
Here to share thoughts on product thinking, systems design, workflow tooling, and creating tools that help people work better — not just faster. Excited to connect, learn, and contribute! 👨💻✨
hello # welcome # product # ai # workflow
Hello guys! I am Hugo, SWE from Paris, working for a boring tech company.
Joining the community to see what’s happening in software engineering during these uncertain times with AI.
Currently working on a skribble-like game to play with friends, and a link sharing platform, sort of a github profile for what fuels people minds (reading, researches, etc...)
Cya!
Hi everyone! 👋 I'm a web developer from China with almost 4 years of full-stack experience, mainly working with Java and Vue.
I'm here to share some technical articles I've been co-writing with AI, and I'd love to exchange thoughts on future tech directions. My English isn't perfect yet, but I'm super eager to learn more about software development and have deep conversations with programmers from all kinds of fields.
Thanks for having me, and I'm looking forward to connecting with you all! 🚀
Hey everyone! I'm Ioan, building Tripvento which is a hotel ranking API that uses PostGIS and LLMs to score hotels by traveler intent. Previously worked on ranking systems at U.S. News & World Report. Just published my first technical post about deleting 55.6M database rows to scale 6x. Excited to share more technical deep dives here.
Hi Everyone, I'm Daniele, from italy.
I've been a developer since I was about 16 and made it my job in 2011.
Currently I work as a dev team leader, and in my free time I still develop mostly in web related languages, also love linux, devOps, cloud technologies and more.
I've been here for a few days now, to learn and because I made the resolution to become more social, or at least try to (I'm not used to share on social media in general), especially since I'm starting to have some open source projects.
Thank you!
Welcome to the community here at DEV, Danny. That's quite the journey you've had, hope you share some of your experiences in the days, week, and months ahead.
I haven't used mainstream social media for years - nor do I ever intend to again. I tried Mastodon for a bit and will be returning to it via the Fosstodon instance at some point. For now, DEV is the right fit - allows me to stay consistent with my learning but has introducted me to a truly warm and supportive community!
Hey everyone 👋
I’m a developer working mostly with visual editors, document builders, and rich text editing tooling.
Over the last year I kept running into the same problem: most RTE solutions are either super heavy, expensive, or behave weirdly inside iframes and visual builders.
That pushed me to build my own editor — ScribeJS.
The main focus is predictable selection handling, consistent toolbar state across browsers, and working correctly inside complex editing environments (like iframe-based builders).
I’m here mostly to learn from other builders and share things I discover while building editing engines.
If anyone here is also working on editors, builders, or complex UI tooling — would love to connect and exchange war stories 🙂

I found out I was being cheated on last week about a week before I found out the truth there were a lot of weird reflags. And what I mean by that is well he has always been picky with you can't see my phone or you can't see it right now, girls don't miss the red flags but I didn't want to admit he was cheating because we just got married and I was pregnant with twines but it got to a point when I looked up ways to see people's text messages and so I went on google and found this website reviews recommending this hacker 5ISPYHAK and it was like a premium service that could let you read people's text message, track who they are calling what time this was happening, every 15 minutes it will record like one minute of sound, it will take pictures every 5 minutes and save it to your phone, it will track what website they are visiting, it will record the phone calls and voice messages and send them all to the application that you paid for.

Hey everyone! I'm Colin. I work in operations during the day but I've been teaching myself to build software over the past year. I have a hearing rehab app live and am about to start a new project in the animation/developer tooling space.
Joined because I want to start writing about building things as someone who didn't come from a traditional dev background. The gap between "AI can help you build an app" and "AI can help you build a polished app" is where I keep getting stuck, and I think a lot of other builders do too.
Excited to be here — what's everyone working on?
I was suspicious that my spouse was being unfaithful but had no concrete proof. To ensure I handled the situation ethically and responsibly, I hired a professional 5ISPYHAK to assess the security of our shared devices. HE performed a legal and transparent audit of our phones with my consent, focusing on any vulnerabilities or suspicious activities.
During the process, they uncovered a series of encrypted messages and hidden apps that my spouse had been using to communicate with someone else. 5ISPYHAK provided me with detailed evidence, which allowed me to confront the situation directly and make informed decisions about my relationship. While the discovery was difficult, the ethical approach taken by the hacker ensured that everything was done within legal and moral boundaries. This clarity gave me peace of mind and helped me take the necessary steps forward in my life. E*M*AIL

Hello 👋 I'm Charles, a software developer and tech nerd. I landed on a nice post from @shahednasser talking about the pros and cons across DEVto, Hashnode and Medium. My main blog has been on Hashnode for a few years and I cross post on Medium, but community is difficult on those platforms. I really like having discussions with other tech professionals and feel like it gives insight into things I'm either not aware of or should be learning about.
Devto seems like it's got a solid and active community 🔥looking forward to finding more awesome blogs and content.
Cheers 🍻
