Hey everyone! 👋

Full-stack developer here, mostly working with Python/FastAPI and Next.js. Just shipped my first SaaS product after building it alongside client work — a scheduling tool called Skedvio (skedvio.com) that computes free availability windows instead of the usual fixed slot grids.

Came to DEV to start writing about the technical decisions and tradeoffs I've been running into — calendar APIs, availability logic, that kind of thing. Excited to finally be contributing instead of just lurking.

Fun fact: the hardest bug I fixed recently was a one-line missing import that silently killed the entire API. from typing import Any — three hours I'll never get back 😅

I'm a developer with a deep passion for building reliable, production-ready AI agents and more specifically, making them failproof.

Too many agents break silently, hallucinate at critical steps, or fail in ways that are hard to debug. I believe we can do better, and that's what I'm dedicating my work to.

I'm a core contributor to github.com/FailproofAI/failproofai : an open-source project focused on patterns, tools, and best practices to make AI agents more robust, predictable, and resilient in the real world.

Here to learn how other indie devs write about their work, and hopefully share some Unity performance war stories along the way (I have… many 😅).

Question of the week: Rider for C#/Unity work — its Unity integration is unbeatable — plus VS Code for everything else.

Outside of code, I'm writing a mythic AI fantasy novel, which is either my creative outlet or evidence that I never actually clock out, just switch the kind of intelligence I'm arguing with😅.

I also ride horses; read anything with a good plot; travel when I get the chance; and cook well enough that I will absolutely defend it if challenged 😎.

Muhammad Abdullah Khan Niazi

Hey everyone 👋

I'm a cybersecurity student and binary exploitation enthusiast. I reverse engineer, build custom debuggers, and grind through CTF challenges — pwn.college, picoCTF, HTB, you name it.

I started documenting my journey because I realized: the struggle is where the real learning happens. Not the flags — the hours of confusion, the wrong turns, the "why isn't this working" moments.

So that's what I'll be sharing here:

Writeups from challenges I've solved (and the ones I almost didn't)

Tools and scripts I've built to make RE and pwn more intuitive

Lessons from the failures that taught me more than the wins ever did

My goal isn't to sound like an expert — because I'm not. I'm just someone who's deep in the journey and wants to bring others along.

If you're into reverse engineering, binary exploitation, or just curious about how low-level systems actually work, feel free to follow along. Drop a comment, ask a question, or correct me if I'm wrong — I'm here to learn.

What brought me here is RMS Mail, a self-hosted email client I’ve been building (Repo is here: github.com/max-ramas/rms-mail-public). These days I’m also AI-augmented in how I work: I focus on architecture, specifications, reviews, and debugging, while AI handles much of the implementation.

Hi everyone, I am Hafsa.

I recently bypassed the traditional university track because I wanted to work directly with raw relational database schemas, pipeline optimization, and growth analytics immediately, rather than memorizing definitions from outdated textbooks.

Over the past year, I have been operating as an independent analyst running end-to-end data audits on dirty, messy production logs. My work focuses entirely on public proof of work over legacy credentials. I specialize in writing MySQL query structures to clean schemas, handle heavy relational joins, and translate backend anomalies into strategic operational decisions.

My entire portfolio is completely public, interactive, and hosted on my Notion hub: lucky-bit-036.notion.site/HAFSA-5f...

Preston West

My name is Preston West, and I'm a full stack engineer consultant with 8+ years building web applications end-to-end. I'm happy to be joining a community of active builders and researchers. If anybody has a personal open-source project that they want help with, specifically JavaScript/TypeScript, I'd be happy to hear about it. I'm looking to contribute to a handful of projects that solve practical problems, with a decent code foundation and vision for the future. I'm available to contribute 5-7 hours per week.

Hi everyone 👋 I'm Anthony, founder of Layerz, building tooling so finance people can work with AI on their models without the whole thing drifting between sessions.

Self-taught on code since the forum days of the late 90s / early 2000s, and just getting back into it now. Here to learn from the folks building agent and dev tools, and share from the finance practitioner side.

Favorite IDE: VS Code with Claude Code. Fun fact: I still defend Excel as an output, just not as the place where the logic should live 😅

Glad to be here, I found a lot of good stuff and learned a lot from here before I join here!

I'm a full-app developer, meaning besides full-stack developer, I could do more, e.g. desktop developer, 3d tech, etc.

Hi everyone! My name is Jack, and I'm from China. This is my first time here. I found so many functions on this website that I’m a bit confused and don't know where to start my journey. Would you be willing to share a few bloggers worth following? I would really appreciate it. Also, if anyone is curious about China or the Chinese IT industry, feel free to ask me!

Hey Dev.to! 👋
Software engineer by day, side-project builder by night. I work primarily with Java and Spring Boot, and I recently shipped my first public tool — CV Craftery (cvcraftery.amsorg.co.in), a free ATS resume builder that matches your resume keywords against a job description.
Just published my first post about building it — the fallback AI chain, the HTTPS redirect gotcha with Nginx + Spring Boot, and a few other things I ran into. Would love to connect with other passionate devs and anyone interested in career tooling.
Looking forward to being part of the community!

Hey everyone 👋

I often start with “I’ll just build a small thing” and then somehow end up spending way too much time adding charts, pages, and extra features 😄

Happy to be here and learn from everyone!
