Hey everyone. Hope you guys are doing well!
As mention in the last welcome thread, I am waiting to fully introduce myself on "Welcome Thread v400". @javz 4 more weeks to go :D
With that said, welcome everyone to DEV. What brings you here today?
Hi everyone! ๐
Iโm a security-focused engineer and researcher from Japan.
Iโm currently working on incident analysis, defensive security, AI-assisted engineering workflows, and technical documentation. A lot of my work is about turning messy real-world evidence into something reproducible, reviewable, and useful for other practitioners.
Iโve also started publishing some of that work on DEV and on my site, OSIIX.com.
Recently, Iโve been writing about topics such as cyber recovery, security engineering, AI workflow reliability, and lessons learned from real incident analysis.
Looking forward to learning from the community and exchanging ideas with people working in security, infrastructure, AI engineering, and reliability.
Nice to meet you all!
Hello
Hey everyone ๐ I'm a university student in Hong Kong who got into building small AI tools between classes.
I came to DEV because I wanted to learn how to write about what I build โ not just build it. I've been making Python scripts and AI agents that solve specific, boring problems (like personalizing cold emails at scale), and I realized the hardest part isn't the code. It's explaining it.
Right now I'm learning how to package and ship small tools properly, and how to talk about them without sounding like a salesperson. Happy to be here.
I'm Abhinav, a B.Tech CSE student interested in Cloud, DevOps, Java, AI, and Open Source. I'm here to learn, build projects, share what I learn, and connect with fellow developers. ๐
Excited to be part of the DEV community!
Hi ๐ I come from the dark side (marketing), but I come in peace.
15+ years sharing open spaces with developers, and I still don't know why the code freeze always lands the week before my launch. I became a workflow builder by accident, when my SEO pipeline started making its own decisions.
Here to learn, ask the obvious questions early, and return the favor on anything go-to-market.

Hello World
I'm Ronnie (Ronald Gosso), a cloud engineer, full-stack developer, and AI/ML engineer based in Tanzania.
A bit about me
By day I'm Lead Engineer at tech company. I'm also a Computer Science student at Arusha Technical College (ATC). Most of my learning happens by building something, breaking it, and then writing down what I figured out.
My background is fairly wide:
Things I've built (opensourced)
You can find the rest on my GitHub: github.com/ronaldgosso
What I'd like to write about here
What I'm hoping to get from this community
I'd like feedback on my projects, good reading recommendations, and conversations with developers who are working on similar problems. If you work on mobile, backend, cloud, or AI, or just like open source, say hi in the comments.
What are you building right now? Tell me below, I'd love to check it out.
Thanks for reading, and see you around!
Ronald

Hi everyone! I'm Mostafa, a senior Flutter developer from Cairo. I'm a founding engineer and a solopreneur: I build and ship my own apps (TalkFood, a voice calorie tracker, and Qirat, a gold price tracker) and help businesses grow theirs. I'm here to write about what shipping Flutter apps in production actually looks like. Happy to connect with other mobile devs.
Hi everyone! ๐
I'm Raza from Pakistan. I'm learning web development by building small, useful web tools.
I recently built a free browser-based image compressor for JPG, PNG, and WebP images. I'm here to learn from other developers, share what I build, and improve my projects through community feedback.
Happy to be part of DEV! ๐
Hey everyone! ๐
Iโm an IT enthusiast from Kenya. I joined this community to learn, build, and connect with people who are exploring technology.
Iโm currently learning more about web development, AI, and cybersecurity. Iโm also interested in building useful products and explaining technology in a simple, practical way.
Fun fact: I can spend hours thinking about a tech idea before writing the first line of code ๐
Looking forward to learning from you all and connecting with other people who enjoy building with technology.
welcome brother
