Hey, there!
My name is Diana and I haven't published a welcome thread yet. And it seems to me that time has come.) I have been a tech blogger since 2015 and I love my job.)
On Dev, I have already published 44 posts and am going to write another article soon. I'm interested in IoT, blockchain, programming, including technologies, software solutions, and software engineering practices.
Have a nice day to everyone!
Hello
hello
Diana,
With 44 articles written and an interest in software solutions and software engineering practices, can you tell me if Dev has a great indexing method that would allow me to find the exact article I need to read just when I need it? I'm looking for something like Socratic Arts' ExTRA(Experts Telling Relevant Advice) system. socraticarts.com/solutions/technol...
Hi
You can search for information by various tags such as devops, techtalks, app dev, and more.)
Welcome!
Hi Diana
Hi!
Hello Diana,
I read your article about swagger api documentation. I like to see if any api document created using swagger just to see how it looks in production?
I am creating one document for our project and not sure if document UI is going to look the same it in editor ?
Kindly help
Nice to meet you, Diana

Hello! How do you find topics for your articles?
I write the issues that might be interesting for developers, other IT specialists, or businessmen who are looking for software solutions. You can take a look at your target audience, competitors, popular topics, and more.)
Hello Diana, I'm John, I see that you are interested in Blockchain, google Blockgeeks, you should find more on blockchain there.
Hello Diana
Damnnn impressive list for so young!
That is wayyyy impressive!
I love the initiative! We young developers have to work extra hard to account for our age.
Keep it up!
Us Old wannabe career changers feel your pain! Lol
That's an impressive tech skill's
Hi Misir,
You have quite an extensive knowledge of programming for your age! Keep up the good work, it seems like you have a natural ability with it.

Hi! I would love to get post from you most especially in java, JavaScript and to make video Games.
Hello, Great
Any jobs Available?
Wow, congrats!
I am Muhammed Cham an aspiring developer
Hello MuhammedCham
Hi Farid, I am new here trying hard to become a developer, currently taking up course through Pluralsight and andela sponsored by Google for its certification. Hope all is well with you.
Hi, Muhammed. May I ask how you are enjoying Pluralsight? I have considered them and many others. I just want to learn the best way possible. Thank you.
Hello محمد
Welcome!
Thank You
Hello Muhammed
hi Abdul how are you brother
Hello everyone, i want to learn how to code but i am not sure how to commit what i learn to memory any suggestions?
Definitely rinse and repeat for committing to memory. But try not to repeat exactly the same way twice. Mix it up, add complexity for practice, delve into how the thing works.
thank you for that advice. Do you happen have any suggestions on a good desktop to handle learning how to code? Ive learned to avoid HP as it seems theyre terrible with being heavy Disk and CPU users.
If you just want a machine that will help you learn coding basics, all you really need is a good internet connection, assuming you're doing your study on the web. If you were working solely from books, you could reasonably get away with any old machine that didn't have trouble starting up.
What are some of your learning goals?
What languages/technologies are you interested in?
Well just reading is where i am realizing im not learning i learn how to do a few things then move on and months later i forget everything. I want to start working in projects (random ones from the internet) to get real practice but I honestly want a smooth experience I work full time and dont really want to deal with a slow or problematic computer as I work on projects to try to learn how to program. I understand how specs work but what ive realized is even with good specs depending on that computer it may still run slow or have issues.
Again, it depends on what kinds of technologies and workloads you plan to work with, but all speed issues will likely come down to processor speed and memory. You can even offload some of your computer strain by working with an IDE on a virtual machine, like cloud9. So even without a lot of $ to spend you could get a decent used computer and figure out an efficient way to run it.
Well i am hoping to get more of a suggestion based on experience. For example my HP laptop injudt bought had the disk and cpu at 100% usage straight out the box where a Dell i had with similar specs just knew how to manage its use of the cpu and disk and its hard to know how a software manages its specs some overlay of certain brands just use unnecessarily and run the computer down.
Hmm. You might want to diagnose what resources are using up 100% of cpu and disk. Apple computers have a program called Activity Monitor that allows you to see what resources are being used by your computer at any given time. Presumably there's a way to check out what's eating up all your cpu.
not the first time ive had similar issues with an HP ive decided to use that for work which consists of mostly light browsing. Its fine though I will probably just purchase a gaming pc with good reviews to be on the safe side if I cant really find a middle ground.
Firstly, it is unlikely that this is a HP specific issue. Fire up your task manager if you are on Windows, or use the "top" command on Linux. It may make sense to debug your CPU usage first.
I would recommend the Razer Stealth laptop with a good keyboard, amazing specs and decent looks. In general though, buy something with an SSD if you want to minimize launch time for applications.
the problem is that the cpu is 100% yet the processes thst are causing that arent there it shows many but none that add up to 100% so its like its hidden. and thank you for that suggestion:D i will look into that one
Hello Kaylee! I know the struggle! What has helped me is by practicing, practicing, practicing. Watching tutorials is a great way to help, but I suggest writing code over and over. Even if you don't know what to do, you'll get better at researching and finding the right answers.
Hello Charles :). Yeah I started styling with CSS but I am noticing answers I find bu google dont work quite often and I will spend like 10 minutes feeling lost endlessly googling haha, but it is fun. I had to purge my computer from windows the specs weren't enough to run windows well so I am running linux mint and it works well so I can start practicing. I was excited to start doing a lot of projects but I couldn't find a site that has more than just a general outline of the goal of the project, I tried to find guided projects with the answers to just practice writing it and seeing how it works but I didn't have good luck in that, do you know any like that?
Absolutely, if you haven't checked out Codepen I would start there! One way that has worked for me is "demystifying" what goes into someone's project. Codepen will allow you to not only see projects people are working on, but the code they used to do so, in an easy-to-read format that you can even edit online.
Plus, at some point when you make your own "Pens", you can embed them in your site/portfolio to show them off!
thats awesome, thank you so much!!!!
Maintaining a markdown notebook where your can jot down every new thing you learn has really helped me. After referring to the notebook five to ten times, I start remembering these things and can always refer to my notes super quick if I'm confused instead of googling all over again
thats awesome thank you :)
Immersion! Lots of coding, and hanging around spaces where coding happens (like dev.to)
thats what im trying to do. I want to start doing projects too but my computer barely handles browsing so Im trying to look for a good PC that is good for someone who will be learning to code
Good luck!
Hello,
I'm new to developing, but I've been very happy doing it all day
everymost days for almost a year now. The quirks of JavaScript have brought me lots of joy.I'm just really starting to become productive. You know when you start out and aim for the stars and end up just jumping up and down on the spot! I'm not yet getting out to orbit but I've learnt to aim at things that'll build me a rocket.
I'm here to reach out and grow. I realise to move ahead I'm going to need others, independence is causing drag.
Thanks, Love you, Later xox
Nice keep it up.
"I'm not yet getting out to orbit but I've learnt to aim at things that'll build me a rocket." Haha, this is an awesome analogy!
Welcome!
Thanks Michael :)
Welcome, keep working hard!
Hello, nice to meet you all
I come from Indonesia, I can't wait to learn from all of you. it's just that I am not proficient in English, so I'm sorry if in discussing many grammatical errors.
Welcome Farid to DEV 🙋♂️
Don't you worry about the grammar mistakes and ask & share your knowledge 🙂
Should there be a problem, people here are nice to ask what you'd have had meant or help you to improve your post/questions.
thank Sung M. Kim
Welcome, Farid!
thank you Daniel
Are you from Germany, Wah from childhood I really like the German national team, what's more since being trained by Jurgen Klinsmann until now being trained by Joachim Löw, besides that I also like Dortmun, Neuer, Muller, Ozil and others.
By the way, is this a coding forum? or the football community?
Farid, don't worry at all about your English. It is excellent. Honestly, some of the worst English now comes out of America. Best of luck to you in your coding journey.

Hello! Found out about this place via Twitter. I'm here to see more of the programming community, share and learn!
I have prior experience teaching with the power of tailored analogy. It worked well for algebra tutoring, so I imagine it might be effective here too.
Sounds like you’ll fit right in Eric!
Hello! I'm Fabiana from Brazil. I'm a bignner in programmer and I have fineshed the Angela Yu Web Bootcamp at Udemy. So I was searching for frontend and backend's mind maps to concatenate my skills. Then I found one of dev.to's artichles. And now I'm here ready to learning more.
Welcome Fabiana!
We're so glad to have you!
Thank you!!
Hi Fabiana!
That's awesome! Let me know if you find any awesome mind maps. I'm interested in finding some too :)
Hi Melanie!
Actually, I was searching for a concept's map, but I found a diferent map in this post by javinpaul:
dev.to/javinpaul/the-2019-web-deve...
But it was very useful to me anyway! :)

Hi all,
I am Charis a Javascript Developer from the small island of Cyprus, enthusiastic about Progressive Web Apps, responsive design, vibrant interfaces, interactive web and mobile apps.
I started writing a blog on Medium about 2 months ago and I am planning to release some articles here too in the near future.
Hope to bring some value to this community and absorb some as well.
Have a good day everyone!
Welcome!
I'm Frankie and I'm a startup backend/Golang dev and professional coach. I've recently started blogging - my primary topic is engineering management. I'm working on an online course for dealing with impostor syndrome. Oh, and I do platform engineering at Mix.com.
Somebody recommended this site to me today and I LOVE the aesthetics. Hi folks!
Hey hey Frankie!
Hope you dig it here. If you write anything Golang related please be sure to tag it with #go (dev.to/t/go) ... likewise, the same goes for imposter syndrome (dev.to/t/impostersyndrome) and any other topic you may write on.
So much of discoverability depends on using these tags! Just a general tip!
Hello everyone!
I am John and I am a web developer from Greece. I haven't wrote any post yet but I am planning to do so asap!
I am here because I am intrested in participating in a community like this! I want to learn something new every day, and I think this is the right place! :)
Hi John, great to have you here! I am looking forward to reading your posts! Do you already have an idea what you want to write about?
Hi Sebastian, thank you for the welcome! I think I would start by writing a post about my favourite javascript resources (books, tutorials etc). What do you think?
Sure, go for it! If you do that, I would also love to hear some takeaway from every resource (e.g. "in 'Javascript - The Good Parts' I learned how to do truly private variables by using scopes")
