πŸ‘‹ Hi, I’m @MNDSE, in my previous life, I was a professional translator/ interpreter and project coordinator.

I decided to give up all and go back to college to major in computer science.
Now, I am a frontend developer. Let’s have some fun.

I should probably retract my earlier question about Wolof (Cool name for a language) because I googled it.

Sometimes, when I know I'm one google search away from answer, I ask the question anyway. It feels as a conversation starter.

Do you do that?

Hey Anton,
Wolof is a local language in Senegal. Yeah we all use google but sometimes it is good to start a conversation with whatever seems fun.

Hey everyone. πŸ‘‹

My name is Danni & I am currently learning front end web development (html, CSS, JS) from CodeAcademy and DEV was listed as a resource.

I currently work as a controls engineer in the Chicago region, and I am looking to learn web development in my spare time. I believe this will become another hobby of mines as I have always been interested in web design.

A fun fact about myself is that when I was about 14 years old, I started a small company creating custom design jean shorts. It only lasted a couple of months (it was a personal summer project) but I now wish I continued that spirit haha.

Hello all! I have been part of DEV for a fairly long time as a lurker, but really enjoy the content here.

I am a Cloud Architect/DevOps champion, and my development tends to be around automation and infrastructure/security/policy as code. I also like to make sure I don't have to do the same thing twice (wishful thinking!), so I tend to try to automate all the things whenever I can.

Trying to get out of my shell a bit an interact with the community more here. Looking forward to it!

One fun fact about me is that I have been working with Unix (followed by Linux) systems for over 30 years, and I still have just as much fun hacking on things as I did when I started (perhaps more!)

I've lived in Youngstown, NY and Youngstown, Ohio.

I've also lived in Newton Falls, NY (Zip code 13666) and Newton Falls, Ohio (Zip code 44444).

I'm not an engineer. I am a computer programmer and have been since 1975. I'm still learning.

Wow! You started in 1975? It means 2 years before me! My first job as a programer was when I was a student in Tel-Aviv University, Fortran on CDC computer.

I worked with RPG-2 on DOS/VSE machine. Greate language. When I started my job it was 100% Cobol, after I learned RPG-2 instead of making changes to Cobol reports I rewrote it in RPG-2. Long time ago...

Hello Everyone ! I'm currently working as a Business System Anakyst and learning Web dev in my spare time. I spend a lots of time on tools that help to manage data. So often I end up using VBA and google apps script (which is essentially JS) . That's how I got into programming and I'm in love with it. An interesting thing about myself is that I wanted to build a website where I can post pictures and share videos kinda similar to social media but exclusive only to people of our school. It seemed to complicated at that time but I feel I should have persisted and should have not given up on it.

Looking forward to learning from you all.

Hi Everyone πŸ‘‹

I am Shripal Soni from India.

I have been working as a web developer since last 10+ years. Web development is a continuous learning journey and that is why I find it very exciting ✨

I had completed my graduation πŸŽ“ in Instrumentation & Control Engineering but I had passion for programming. So, I learned about web development from various blogs, websites and youtube videos. I am really grateful to the writers of those articles/tutorials/videos due to which many like me could become professional web developers.

I often listen from my friends, family and colleagues that I have good explanation skills. So, I had always a thought that sometime in future I will also dedicate my time to write quality content to help aspiring and experienced web developer in their learning journey. I think that time has now come πŸš€

I am now working as an independent full-time content creator in web development field. So, I joined here to connect with as many developers as I can and help them in their learning journey by writing quality articles.

You can know more about me from my website codewithshripal.com.
