Daniel @ Revue

Hi all, I'm Daniel, a solo developer working on Revue, a multi-agent code review tool that runs locally in Claude Code before you commit and again in CI on pull requests. I've been building it since March and testing it on its own codebase throughout, which has forced me to fix every rough edge pretty quickly. I just published my first post here about how AI-assisted coding shifted code review from a minor step to the real bottleneck. I'll probably keep writing about that: code review, AI-assisted development, and the unglamorous side of shipping alone. Good to be here, and curious what everyone else is working on.

Marvin Munos

Hey everyone! I'm Marvin, solo founder from Paris/Lisbon. 15 years in retail and e-commerce.

Currently building four things:

  • SiftedTools (siftedtools.com) — independent AI tool comparator for e-commerce, 145 pages in 7 languages, built with Astro + Cloudflare Pages
  • Quotis (quotis.ai) — GEO measurement service tracking which tools AI engines actually recommend
  • Minha Historia (minhahistoria.pt) — turn your parents' voice notes into memoir books via WhatsApp, powered by Make.com + OpenAI + Lulu.com
  • Mon Livre de Vie (monlivredevie.fr) — the French version of Minha Historia, same concept for French-speaking families

I'll be posting about the Astro multilingual architecture and the WhatsApp-to-book automation pipeline. Happy to connect with anyone building in e-commerce or no-code automation!

A huge welcome to everyone joining this amazing Dev.to community!

No matter where you're starting from—whether you're writing your very first line of code, building your first project, switching careers, or you're already an experienced developer—I'm glad you're here.

Every expert was once a beginner who kept showing up, learning from mistakes, and refusing to give up. Don't compare your chapter one to someone else's chapter twenty. Growth happens one step, one bug, one project, and one lesson at a time.

This community is full of people who love to learn, share knowledge, and support each other. Ask questions without fear, share your progress, celebrate your wins, and don't be afraid to talk about your challenges. You'll be surprised how many people have been in the exact same position.

Keep building, keep experimenting, and keep improving. Every project you complete teaches you something valuable. Every error message is an opportunity to learn. Every article you write helps someone else while strengthening your own understanding.

Remember:
✨ Stay curious.
✨ Be consistent.
✨ Never stop learning.
✨ Help others whenever you can.
✨ Celebrate small victories—they eventually become big achievements.

Technology changes every day, but a mindset of continuous learning will always be your greatest strength. Whether your goal is web development, AI, mobile apps, cloud computing, cybersecurity, open source, or anything else, stay focused and trust the process.

I hope you make great friends here, build incredible projects, contribute to open source, and achieve goals you once thought were impossible.

Wishing every one of you success, happiness, and an exciting journey ahead. Welcome once again to the Dev.to family—let's learn, build, inspire, and grow together! ❤️

Kollab Kit

Hey DEV community! 👋
I'm building KollabKit - an AI-powered media kit builder for Instagram creators. Connect your Instagram, get a live shareable media kit in under 30 seconds. No PDFs, no Canva, no manual data entry.
We just launched and currently have a media kit builder and rate calculator live. Building more like caption suggestor, AI video draft approver for brands, creator discovery.
Would love feedback from this community on the product and what we're building. Happy to answer any questions!

Alexander Kremer

Hey everyone! 👋 I'm Alexander. I spend most of my time looking at AI software, but I joined DEV because I have a slightly obsessive side project around open source.

A friend and I kept discovering interesting AI repos way too late, so we started curating the ones we thought were actually worth an hour of attention. That became Repository Radar, and somewhere along the way we ended up tracking 239 repos and their GitHub metrics over time.

We also turn the curation into a biweekly newsletter. I just published my first DEV post on what we learned from watching some of these projects grow.

Very curious how people here discover new OSS before it's already everywhere. Also always happy to receive repo recommendations, especially things we completely slept on 😅

Omar Bni

Hey everyone 👋 I'm Omar full-stack engineer, currently doing a CS master's, and building in the AI/dev-tools space.
What brought me here: I've been shipping a lot lately and want to be around other people who build. Right now I'm working on Clanker Support an embeddable AI support agent with one core idea: it should answer from your docs, then hand off to a human the moment it can't (with the full conversation), instead of trapping people in a chatbot loop. It's open-source and self-hostable, which is partly why I like the DEV crowd.
Currently learning a lot about the unglamorous side of shipping rate limiting, escalation state machines, and how many ways a "simple" widget can break in production 😅
Happy to be here will go say hi to a few folks below.

Hi. I came here to see if people are interested on a cool project I'm co-developing called Sparsi that reduces token usage and latency as much as possible for any kind of repeatable workflow involving AI. I'm going to upload an article today going into details and benchmark results comparing it against a ReAct loop. Tests on small sample sizes so far have very promising results (76% decrease in token usage and 44% decrease in latency). We'd appreciate any feedback or contributions to the project.
