Hi everyone!

Welcome to the dev.to-community!

I'm Martin, I was a Senior Front End Architect / Manager at one of the world's largest interactive agencies, leading Front End Teams for international accounts. In 2018 I quit and now I'm traveling the world as a professional scuba diver and fully remote Senior Front End Architect / Front End Tech Lead for various international clients.

Currently, I'm publishing the weekly "WebDevDigest: A curated list of the top five web development must-reads from last week" and a library of JavaScript functions in 1 line of code which you can also find on npmjs: onelinecode and GitHub: onelinecode.

If I have enough time, I write more in-depth articles about next.js + TypeScript, for example how to create multi-language pages with next export which is on GitHub:next-export-i18n and npmjs: next-export-i18n


I recommend following the general tags webdev, vscode , career and productivity and javascript, react, CSS. Head over to your Dashboard and adjust the tag weight for to personalize your home feed.


Here's a list of articles to start your journey as an successful developer and a great writer:


If you are looking for your next job, I highly recommend to buy the Book De-Coding the Technical Interview Process by Emma Bostian. It is hands down the best preparation for every technical interview.


If you're interested in my articles, follow me on dev.to/martinkr or twitter.com/_martinkr.

In case you have questions or want to get in touch, feel free to contact me on dev.to/martinkr.

And don't forget to start posting today!

Cheers!

Cozumel, Belize for your area, Raja Ampat, Sipadan Island, Red Sea - I'm diving warm water only. But to be honest - there are no more "secret spots" in diving :D

(pardon the delayed response) The Red Sea is a big one on my bucket list! I haven't had too many opportunities for warm water diving spots. They look so amazing, but I have heard the same. Seems the main secret spots left are a little more drysuit friendly lol. The Pacific Northwest is cooold and much less trafficked, but stunning in its biodiversity if you ever have the chance (one of my favorites :3 )

Hi everyone!
I'm 35 years old and living in Aydın/TURKEY. After ten years i fired my job and i was held in prison for five years. About three months ago i was evicted. Now i have a new life(thanks to God for this!) and new opportunities. I believed one of my opportunities is learning software building like a new career and so i started to learn Python of my own. After a few days, i'll get to start a 9 months course to enter this beautiful community consciously.

Hi Everyone,

"Shebang, I'm your father." Today we celebrate the birthday of the shebang. Forty-two years ago, Dennis Richie, the spiritual father of the shebang, wrote the following: The system has been changed so that if a file being executed begins with the magic characters #! , the rest of the line is understood to be the name of an interpreter for the executed file. And so, the she(ll)bang is born.

It's not the only birthday to celebrate today. Kaboom Shebang is going live and will share the 10th of January with the Unix shebang. 🎈

Under the "Kaboom Shebang" flag, I will publish articles on various web/tech subjects. The first article will go online any minute.

Hopefully, you can get value from the articles. Just like all those articles, from all those great writers, that have helped me over all those years.
:-)

Hi everyone! I'm Kat from California. I played around with learning HTML/CSS/JS on Codecademy during the initial lockdown of 2020, but let it slide when we went back to the office. Now that I've picked it back up again, both React and UX design have piqued my interest. (I know you don't need JS to do UX, but I like to build and learn how things work). If anyone else out there is on a similar path, please feel free to reach out!

Hi ya'll! Anthony from North Carolina, USA. Currently working through The Odin Project on my quest to learn full stack web development. I eventually want to get into Progressive Web Apps, which I find extremely interesting. One of my favorites is whboo.com, which is used to coordinate, authenticate, and provide tools for users playing EVE Online. Being a teacher, I am also interesting in coding pedagogy, and would love to work more in this area once I know enough to begin teaching others to code.
