Welcome everybody, so great to have you!
If you're not sure where to start with the community, considering asking a question as a follow-up on anyone's post. People here love to elaborate on what they've written. 😄
Hi there software developer by profession looking out to move to blockchain solutions domain, hence here to learn.
Looks like this a great platform to learn and share.
Cheers
What has you interested in blockchain?
I like the decentralized ledger concept which is fail tolerant, transparent and immutable. Which can solve lot of use cases that is currently solved using a client server architecture and yet not very secure nor fast.
Hi Gopakumar! 👋 You should follow @damcosset . He's big into blockchain etc.
Thank you Nick. I am already reading Damien's articles and that's what inspired me to join Dev.

Hi
Hello! My name is Julia and I am Software Test Analyst.
I have recently started to learn Pyhton, and although I think it will take me some time to understand it properly, I am actually enjoying it! I am really excited to start making projects from some ideas I have in mind :)
Welcome to the community!
Hello. Julia, I am Mattie and I think my brains is twisted in a knot learning Portfolio, Code Pen developing, writing a book and continuing with writing my poetry. I will good night, I have now been awake 36 hours.
Wow, that is efficiency! What is the book about?
36!
Thank you; however, I am not sure how long I will be here. Being my true self, the overachiever, I think I bit off more than I can chew this time. Should I learn to code before becoming too involved with Portfolio or vice versa?
Ok, now I need to go change the setting in the computer because this is what I get when I type an apostrophe (è), question mark (É). Windows 10 Pro is not a user friendly OS.
Will be back in a few days; however, I think I will play around with Python after resetting the keyboard.
Hope all is safe from the hurricane.
One and half day!?
good stuff!
Hi Julia,
Is python your first programming language? If so, good choice! After you get to grips with the basics, May I suggest two tiny frameworks, great to get you started depending on your project: Flask is a small web framework, and Click can help you to write CLI apps.
Apart from that, try to understand virtualenv and requirements.txt. They are simple tools and they will change your #pylife!
Pardon me with knowledge Vlad...me #1 post...I'm into machine language...want to grow more with Dev
Welcome!
Any tips on doing Test-Driven Development (TDD)? Have been thinking of going that direction in a while.
Hello, do you have a specific project in mind to implement such method.? As far as see the TDD is very useful for projects with medium - high complexity, specially when multiple people will touch the code and changes are not allowed to even move the production source code out of the expected.
If your project has a testing framework, the TDD will mean that you first write test cases and then functional code. It is nice to see the test cases failing at first and letting you know when you are doing wrong
Hi and welcome! No need to rush, just take your time and enjoy yourself. The world of development is vast and very exciting so you're on a great path. Enjoy!
Hi Julia, i can suggest you a very cool framework that i recently discovered called Masonite.
I used to coding in php with Laravel and this one i am suggesting to you is very similar to that one.
Here you can find more about masonite if you interested in knowing
dev.to/masonite
Wow,
That's pretty cool
Hey Julia, take a look at Julia language, it's like Python. But since you share its name you can become an SME. Only kidding please stick to what you know and enjoy learning it.
Hi Julia,
Nice to see you here!
I am also actually studying Python right now. And I am very excited to start to study Machine Learning. I think about that.
hey there i also just started learning Python, i think we should travel this journey together or what you think?
Yes
I'm in
Hi Julia, had you have a look at JULIA LANGUSGE :)
I'm new for this as well, looking for Rust and Julia languages.
Good luck with your projects in mind!
Great
Hello Julia.
Welcome here. Nice to hear that you have started a new journey on python. Wishing you all the best.
Thanks,
Just heard about dev.to on a podcast and wanted to check it out. I'm a second-career developer, who just started my first full-time position at the age of 41. Before that, I was a music teacher and author, but technology has always been my hobby. Even while teaching, I found myself running multiple websites for various groups, and even started building mobile apps and teaching myself to really become a coder. I took off a year of teaching and tried my hand at entrepreneurship, building unison.school, a tool for music teachers and students, and then landed a more stable remote .Net developer job this April!
I'm interested in learning just about anything and everything about software development, so looking forward to checking out dev.to!
Hi, I heard about dev.to from the Changelog podcast and came to learn more. I'm at a crossroads in my career and looking to find out how other devs may have approached the same problem.
I'm really excited about GatsbyJS, React, DevOps, Design Systems, Laravel, GraphQL, Jira, so basically all of the things.
Hi, i'm Elfo... I mean a software dev. Here to steal your ideas and share mine with you. I decided to read an article/discussion of dev.io every day to learn something new.
What advice would you give myself a year ago?.... be bold af!
Heyo, self-taught web developer now working in Seattle. I primarily use in PHP and JavaScript for work, but learning Golang and machine learning in my spare time. Happy to have found this site!
Hey Brain ! just wondering if you have any projects going on, Laravel stuff ???
Hi James! Nope we don't use any frameworks like Laravel. Completely custom. But as far as personal projects, I'm learning how to train ML models in Python then execute them in Go. Trying to build a recommender system. You?
Hi, there. I'm Mauricio from Colombia. Self-taught JavaScript dev looking forward to get better at coding and learning React and TypeScript.
Interesting a good friend of mine has your last name which I think is pretty unique, maybe you guys are extended family haha.
P.S. Js rocks :)
Welcome Mauricio to dev.to 👋
I haven't learned
TypeScripteven though I've been using React.But Shawn "swyx" Wang has been keeping a cheatsheet for TypeScript + React.
Hope the link helps 👍
Hi I'm a computer application student and interested in learning JavaScripts advance concepts and looking to contribute my efforts on any JS project.
I hope Dev communities helps me to sharp my skills.
Thank You.
Hey Anoop, any places you recommend on where to start with JavaScript? I current live KNP Universities courses they have. But have also heard about javascript30.com
I will recommend you a Udemy JS Course, Which I follow it's really helpful for me to improve my confidence on JS programming.

Hey guys ! new to the community, super interested in contributing / starting my own open source projects. I've ended up here cause I consider myself in a bit of coding rut since starting my first full time job after finishing school back in May. I've always been a social person which is one of the reasons I loved going to school for Computer Science so much. I have a messy list of random ideas for simple projects etc that I'd like to do in my spare time with friends. I'm a junior software developer for a automotive parts manufacturing company, we use the php framework laravel and vue js. I'm still super novice in both in my own opinion. I've never dived into Machine Learning, AI, or any other computer sciencey topics. Anyways ! I'm gonna be more active on here to keep myself motivated and make new friends and build fun simple things as I learn more.
Congratulations James on finishing school!!!
Hello everyone! I came across dev.to in on my dailynow.co homepage. Looks like a great site for knowledge and become part of a dev community. Im currently enrolled in a 6 month full stack web development cohort. Im about halfway through the cohort now and it definitely has been challenging. Ive learned a lot in the couple months so far in the program and I'm excited to keep learning but wow sometimes it feels like an overwhelming amount of info to learn...Anyone else coming from a bootcamp?
I did one but not as extensive as yours, it was more like crash course bootcamp type of thing.
Hey! I'm coming from a 6 month bootcamp based in Nashville! Where is your bootcamp? How are you liking it so far? My experience was great, and intense at the same time :)
Hi myself Mohini Raut I did above Dev link many times .I learnt how to do it locally installation and create assets,participates and did transaction .When I restart composer rest server connection fails Error also when all transaction done after that buyer and real estate agent balance showed correctly but Seller balance not increased It still showed 10000 but It had to 110000.
Hi everybody!
For my sins, I'm traditionally a DBA, and I currently manage a team of database reliability engineers.
I'm learning dart and flutter because the entrepreneur in me wants to be able to get ideas from my head into apps. I also wanted to learn a versatile language that can be used server and client side.
I'm also one of the co-founders of GDG Bristol to showcase Google tech.
A year ago I would've told myself to focus more and cut out the noise. This is something I'm still trying to achieve!
Why go with dart, instead of JavaScript?
Mainly because dart was built from the ground up to replace JavaScript. Also, it's the language behind Flutter, and Fuschia (Google's next OS) is built with it.
What do you do to gain focus and cut out the noise?
