Greetings all,
I just joined!

I found this site from a post about the negative aspects of SO, which I am fully familiar with. I wanted/needed a place where open discussions are allowed and the possibility of a result driven response.
There are times when I just get stuck, and after a week or more of a variety of attempts to fix or work around the issue, I need to seek help/guidance for problems that are, usually, specific to what I am doing.

I am looking forward to interacting with this community and hopefully being able to contribute as well.

I totally understand your feelings about SO. I'm the same. Some people are not very helpful, if not actively harmful. I try to avoid the place as much as I can. Thank you, ChatGPT! ;)

Greetings from Charlotte, NC!

My name is Stephen, I am an experienced consultant and systems administrator.

I am currently doing my best to convince ChatGPT to do all the legwork to integrate Forms.io submission data with a Moodle LMS database. It's been...unproductive, if I'm honest. I will most likely spend twice the amount of time πŸ™„ tweaking my phrasing and looking for ways to improve its code generation than I would simply doing it myself--one of the true hallmarks of an I.T. professional! πŸ€“

Anyone else doing far more work than necessary simply because your innate curiosity and/or hunger for novelty got the best of you? Raise a glass! 🍻


Give me a fast ship, for I am going a long way.

Fun fact: I actually live Panipuri (called 'Puchka' where I stay), and asking for extra spicy water is compulsory according to me. Welcome to dev.to btw.

Hi folks,

I'm a front-end generalist, in the sense that I know enough HTML/CSS/JS to have a coherent conversation with my more skilled colleagues, while also having perspective informed by my experience as a QA, Product Manager, UX Lead, Marketer, and Business Analyst.

That breadth has made it easy for me to specialize in digital accessibility, even if I never planned it that way.

One thing I'm passionate about--largely because of its impact on a11y--is how front end devs in general need to treat HTML as a bona fide skill instead of an afterthought.
