Here you can choose to only show your feed, or filter categories including the most popular articles, most upvoted and best discussions. There's also bookmarks and reading history.</p> <p><a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--hxy2ipbd--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_880/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/6ix9b7xgt7kremzpdt0q.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"><img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--hxy2ipbd--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_880/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/6ix9b7xgt7kremzpdt0q.png" alt="DevCard" width="880" height="1202"></a></p> <p>My personal favorite feature on daily.dev is the <strong><em>#DevCard</em></strong>. It's a cool graphic card shows multiply status of your activities and achivement during the time you spend on daily.dev. The system will generate a embed <code>&lt;a href&gt;</code> link for you to added to your portfolio or github readme page, which is pretty neat.</p> <p><a href="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--p3H4UlGc--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_880/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/2r7dkbrux1vvvfhshsws.png" class="article-body-image-wrapper"><img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--p3H4UlGc--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_880/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/2r7dkbrux1vvvfhshsws.png" alt="Image description" width="705" height="180"></a><br> Another cool feature from daily.dev is that you can added it to your chrome homepage through an extension. It has a 5 star rating on chrome app store and it's been used by 100,000+ users. I had it on my browser for the last few month, although I enjoy been able to always have stuff to checkout but did feel bombarded with full screens of information, it's rather distracting.</p> <p>Overall, daily.dev is an awesome tool for but personally I recommend using as a dialy news feed but not to use the extension and been slaped with news every single time you open a new tab. Happy coding! 🐱 😎</p> webdev javascript programming tutorial
