I started a new job!! As a backend developer. This is a huge win for me given that I am In my last year of college. Thanks in large part to my dev.to articles, the interview process was all smooth sailing.
I swear this platform is changing lives. I have my own success stories that started here. Congratulations on landing the job
Share them on a post. I'd love to read your success story.
I agree, dev.to is an amazing platform for personal growth.
This is something happened to me today...I did not get the confirmation yet, but my performance satisfied myself in the interview. Thanks, to Dev.To.
🎊 I hope you get your win as well. Reply to this when the confirmation comes!!! All the best. 🎊
Continue contributing to the dev.to community in your own little way whenever you can.
Congrats!!!!!
Great and best of luck with your new job
Thank you.
congrats!!
Congrats!
This cracked me up 😂😂. Thanks Nick.
I listened to my interview on The Stack Overflow podcast and didn't cringe to death 😅
The Stack Overflow Podcast
Congrats! I'm looking forward to giving this a listen soon.
Still me when I hear my voice on anything:
My wife brought home a Stranger Things LEGO set yesterday and we're gonna do some building tonight! 🙌 🙌
I just might consider giving this to my niece and nephew after we've had our fun... that's a hard might.
😁
Noice!
I 💖 that gif! Thx Nick! :)
Quite a prolific week. Great stats and congrats
hey, I am a prolific dev! They don't call me dataPixy for nothing :) Just b/c I have not blogged for years doesn't mean I can't spread my wings in prose. Most of them were just my README.md reposts & some recent updates I am working on ...
On a serious note, I was quite surprised by those week 1 stats. Turns out there are more devs interested in my vscode dataViz tools content on this platform than on Twitter.
Will def. post my dev tools updates on dev.to from now on since it looks like it's where good hands-on devs congregate lately :)
I joined DEV.to and people actually noticed my little article. I didn't think anyone would care about what I had to say, but some folks did. That was kinda cool.
Nice, you just joined and already wrote an article! I am new member too, but I am far away from write anything right now. I am at my early learning process :)
I read your article, and however not everything is clear I see you put the effort, so well done.
Ok. Joining a community is always a great step in the right direction. I think with practice and experience, I'll get better at writing to make myself clearer :).
Whoo!
I resigned from my dead end admin job to focus on Flatiron School full-time! 🎉
Woohoo, good luck!
Launched meetingplace.io/ (an alternative to Meetup), and got 50 live groups, with over 100 more already registered but not live yet!
Awesome. I had this in mind for a while now. Is it an open source project?
It's not right now, though I do plan to open source at least large chunks of it in the future. I want to try to get it off the ground first though :)
Cool. I'll look out for when you do. See if I can provide valuable contributions with the backend stuff.
That's great. I would love to contribute if you dont mind.
I got a new job! I bypassed the interview because I'm an active contributor in a 200k community of Filipino Freelancers and the recruiter got familiar with my name
congrats. This is very cool.
Thanks!
Started #100DaysOfCode, learning ReactJS. I've always used Angular in the past, but am in love with React so far.
It's shown me the huge benefits of not just sticking to what you know, and at least having an understanding of the alternatives.
Hello, I love the way you talk about learning to code, my question is how does one get started on 100 Days of Coding, give me the low down on how I can learn to code for a 100 days, where do I start?
Hey Evelyn :) Thanks for the comment.
I've just written another article on my first week of #100DaysOfCode (dev.to/jeastham1993/100-days-of-co...).
In terms of getting started, I just picked something I wanted to get better at (front end dev), picked something I didn't know already (I know Angular, don't know React) and then found some resources to learn (Udemy in this case).
Hope that helps!
I am almost done rebuilding my portfolio I will probably launch it this week! I did not use any third party javascript library or framework so its just pure vanilla and after launching it will be the fastest website I've ever made :D
