Hey people. I'm technically a lawyer but I thought "who needs that in their lives" and somehow found myself learning and loving HTML, CSS and JS. It's only been 7-8 months since I started learning, so everything is a little intimidating still, but I'm hoping to be the best frontend developer anyone has ever seen (lol). Anyway looking forward to chat with you all :3
Love HTML. Gives so much control over the code. Welcome! I am a newbie too.
I'm learning more and more that, while HTML decides the content, CSS exerts a lot of control over how that content is displayed. It's a whole new world!
And isn't amazing that when you write a couple lines of code, it only takes you 2 seconds to refresh the page and see the results of what you did? I absolutely love that about coding :)
Agree. In fact there are websites that allow you to test it LIVE! Real time changes to what the code is doing. Have found these spaces excellent resources for both learning and teaching.
You made the good choice by learning to code. Welcome here !
Thank you, I definitely feel welcomed!
Hey! I was transport manager and i thought the same :D Welcome!
You go girl, best of luck to you!
Hi Ece! I also just left my safe Managing position in a travel agency to pursue my dream and start coding coding coding! Wish you all the luck in the world!
It takes a lot of courage doesn't it? I love success stories about changing careers and chasing dreams :)
It does! but choosing with the heart is the only way to choose! now its the time for hard work and determination! see you along the way!
Awesome
I registered about a month ago, but I've only really spent time here over the last week or so, and I just published my first dev.to article today!
I recently got my first Data Engineering job. I'm busy learning what Data Engineering is and how, if at all, it's distinct from Software Engineering as a discipline. I'm very excited. 🤗
When you find it out, let us know! :)
I will definitely update you with any useful data engineering insights. Right now I’m just kind of flailing about and my team is being very kind and informative 😜
Hearty congratulations! 👍
Woohoo congrats 🎉
Welcome welcome welcome.
In addition to commenting here, I recommend finding a post that someone else made and asking a question. It's a great way to get the knowledge flowing from smart folks in the DEV community.
Happy coding!
Hello, I'm a fresher in this community and I want to learn about programming. Please help me.
Hi Badri, welcome to dev.to 👋
We can all help each other as nobody knows everything 😁
I feel the same way, brother.
Hi everyone!
My name is Ellie, I'm a new frontend web developer.
I live in San Diego, California and work full time as an Admin Assistant, but I'm determined to make the career switch. I practice code after work and try to attend meetups too. Shoutout to Women Who Code San Diego! :D
I've been working with HTML and CSS so far. JavaScript is my next challenge! I'll probably be bumbling through it, but I will do my best and learn!
I'm really glad to be here. Thank you, dev.to community for being awesome!
wellcome
Hello, I'm on dev.to for well over a year, and I'm more and more in recent months.
🙋♂️ My name is Thomas, I'm French and I'm 19 yo (writted un french). I love web development, I learn this time Ruby and RoR, I also do my first code under Ruby, I invite you to fly over and tell me what you think. (Nothing crazy I know but I was proud for my first program).
I'm looking for people to follow who will post articles around the web domain #html, #css, #js, #rails
let me know 👋
Bonjour et bienvenue, Thomas! Mais je suppose que vous êtes la personne qui devrait dire "bienvenue" à moi
(je vais vous aider avec votre codage si vous m'aidez avec mon français (= )
Yes ! Welcome or if you want : Bienvenue ! 🙋♂️👋
Hey everyone, I'm currently sharpening my JavaScript skills,I'm also looking at reactjs. I joined this community today because of the amazing content I've been reading, I'm learning a lot just from reading the content posted here.
Welcome 👋 Lyndor to dev.to.
Amount of content can be overwhelming so you can follow/filter by #react tag as you are
looking at React👊.Hi all,
After following on twitter for a few months I've decided to register and hopefully start to contribute.
I live in Scotland and I've been a developer in one form or another for the last decade.
Currently feeling a bit stale and jaded and hoping I can be re-inspired by the DEV community.
Feel free to begin anytime! ;-)
Hi all!
Found out about DEV via a Reddit referral (r/webdev, iirc). I started a new job as a senior systems analyst over the summer. Prior to this, my career and education has focused primarily on network and server administration, but my new role is in the web application and web site development space, so I want sharpen my current development skills and acquire new ones as well.
I'm actually working on my Master's (IT Management, though I may take a second one with a security focus), and at the moment I'm taking a bunch of business-related courses. Right now I'm taking a course called Technological Globalization and will be working on advanced networking and project management next.
Hi everyone.
I'm Jean Karlo. I from Ecuador. At the moment I'm studying Computer Science in the University, also I'm learning English jejeje so I have mistakes with grammar. Sorry.
I'm so happy to be here.
Where are you all from?
Hey Jean, welcome to the community! I live in New York City (USA), but we have a very global community with folks from all around the world. Look forward to seeing you around the site!
Hiya! I'm a full stack engineer based in LA. Been a lurker on this site for a while but decided I should actually jump into the community and start writing / participating more! I'm pretty excited to have opened my first PR to dev.to! Right now I'm excited to learn more about Crystal and the Amber framework. Cheers! 🎊
I look forward to seeing you post about Crystal! That's something I've been experimenting with too, though not Amber yet.
Hi! I discovered this community thru researcing about ReactJS v17. Currently, I'm researching/studying the effect of the new version of React (16.6.0) to our app at work. Even though, I have experience, I still consider myself as a beginner. Happy to know other dev better! ☺
Hi! I just joined, after seeing several posts on Twitter and getting curious enough to try this platform out. It seems so cozy!
I'm Russian, moved to Finland to get a master's degree in CS (Algorithms and ML) and to stay, which worked well. :) Currently, I'm a javascript developer in a tiny company located in Helsinki. I'm also developing a platform for online diaries, together with a few friends. It has a similar set of values as this community, maybe that's why I feel instantly at home here.
I have lots of ups and downs in my career path and I am still not sure who I want to be and what I want to be doing. Before starting my own project I was considering to quit dev altogether. But now there is a purpose.
I haven't written anything yet and I don't know what I can write about. I never feel confident to talk about technical stuff because I know so little. Maybe I will write about struggles of balancing work, project, life, or about leading development in a small team of amateur enthusiasts under a constant pressure of impatient audience. :D
Hi all! I'm just a common guy from Italy.
I always loved computers and wrote my first line of Basic at 4.
After years wasting my time doing other stuff, I'm rebooting my career at 38yo as an amateur dev -- and I'm loving it
