I've been a professional C, Perl, PHP and Python developer.
I'm an ex-sysadmin from the late 20th century.
These days I do more Javascript and CSS and whatnot, and promote UX and accessibility.
What do you actually do, though? It seems like people in devrel talk about devrel in broad terms, but after a couple of years of it being a buzzword I still have no clue what it is. The closest I think I've come is "sometimes say nice things about other developers".
Other than that it's all a bit like the rules of Fight Club.
It depends, but for me I create a lot of example projects & reference architectures & open source them, create videos, write blogs, speak at conferences & have meetings with developers using the services & tools that my team builds.

To do what, though? I mean, I have meetings with developers all the time. We create example projects as part of development work all the time. I don't write blogs, but I know other developers who do. Same with conferences. I'm missing something here!
