Hi all - I'm Guy, glad to help people when I can. Love Python and Django recently, R also, I mostly worked with SAS over the years doing data analysis. Located in the Great White North,” (for those old enough to remember it) I describe myself as a happy nerd with a good sense of humour. :) Best wishes for 2018.

Hi all, this is Abhishek. I saw a twitter post about this platform. I am interested in anything tech related. Currently, my life revolves around Python which I use at work as well as for any fun project outside of work. I am learning more about Cloud Computing as well as using it at work.

I am here to learn more about new things in software development as well as interact with developers. I am hoping to contribute as much to open source this year. So, ping me if you have any projects that you want some help with or want to collaborate on.

I am also open for new job opportunity.

Hi there. I am an experienced software developer. My core skills center on visuals. So, 3D graphics - rendering, shading, GPU programming (Metal, GLSL) , and lots more 3D coolness - as well as data visualization -D3, JS, etc.

My focus is now shifting to blockchain, cryptocurrency, smart contracts, etc. I would like to find a way to use my visual programming skills in this space.

Hi, everyone. Having had a career in advertising (mostly digital) as a producer and project manager, and having worked with some amazing developers, I've realized I want to make a change and get my hands dirtier, and start building some things.

I've got some background with RoR, HTML, CSS, JS, and am about to embark on a Computer Science program over the next 6 months where I'll be deep diving into UI, JavaScript, React, Python, Django, and C (among others). Pretty stoked to start working on this side of the fence, and glad I found y'all!

Hello all - I'm Abed, I graduated last spring as a Computer Engineer Bachelor. I'm from Russia though I grew up in Lebanon (Middle East). I've been into Dev world since I was in school when VB6 was pretty new. And since then I've been learning and wandering. During these years I shifted interests several times from Low Level Pic Assembly, to Desktop Apps (VB.net), to Linux bash and python, to virtualization, and lately I'm into freelancing and into web and mobile development. And I aim to become a software architect in the next few years, until I gather the right pieces and gain enough experience :)

I have found the practicalDev from its facebook page couple weeks ago and since then I'm here everyday. I find it interesting, eye opening, and fun here. and I hope I can be a part of this great community :)

Hey Guys!

I'm Laurent (from Paris/France). I'm an "old" developer (42) and have 19 years of experience in programming and engineering: Linux, Perl, PHP (started with PHP 2), Javascript, Cloud architecture (AWS) and lot of more stuffs.

I love that and I'm still learning. Actually, I'm working on NodeJs and React Native and I have one hundred projects with these technologies.

To be honest, I completly stopped to work with CSS, HTML and JS frontend. We can't know everything ;-) !

I have already read couple of articles from dev.to.
Whaooo! Good job!

See ya!
