First Day on DEV!

Hey everyone! Today is my first day on DEV! Any tips on how to engage with the community would be awesome!

As for my personal development trajectory, I am a web developer for the Canadian Government Coast Guard and a 4th year university student in Ottawa Ontario! ReactJS, MongoDB and front-end technologies/libraries such as Bootstrap, D3 and ChartJS reside in my daily toolkit.

I'm looking forward to learning and developing my skills with all of you!

Welcome!

The best way to engage is ... Just be yourself! Comment on posts you find interesting. Everyone loves answering questions about their projects/posts so that's a great way to get started. Once you are comfortable, you should also share your own projects here. It's a great way to get real engagement from a lot of smart and friendly people.

Good luck with the rest of your studies and have fun here at DEV! :)

You’ll want to understand how the Mongodb syntax works first. I suggest starting with learning how to use the cloud database on the command line then move into integrating it into your apps and projects.

I suggest you grab the Mongodb Udemy course by Maximilian Schwarzmuller!
