Already twelve iconic developer types created 😎
I noticed a lot of types were recognized by the readers, so I came up with the following questions for you:

What developer type(s) do you relate to the most?
What developer types do you have in your team?
What developer types could you use in your team?
What is your favorite iconic developer type?

If, by thinking about this, you get some inspiration to write a new iconic developer profile please leave it in the comments!



1) 🧐 The know-it-all
2) ðŸĪ  The cowboy
3) ðŸĪŠ The funny one

4) ðŸĪ“ The perfectionist
5) ðŸĶ„ The Unicorn
6) ðŸšŦ Doctor no

7) ðŸđ The Bug Buster
8) 🎅 The tools Santa
9) ðŸ˜ģ The branch breaker

10) ðŸĪ·â€â™‚ïļ The WOMM developer
11) 🐙 The unfortunate full-stack
