Hi everyone! 👋 I'm currently an engineering manager at Uber, in Amsterdam, where I help a team of developers grow every day. Before I transitioned into management, I was a developer for a long time, starting with web, then doing backend and mobile - all the way from Windows Phone, iOS, then Android.
I love to share what I learn learnings, both on my blog and I've written a few articles here as well. I've also recently started writing a book on growing as a software engineer, in a tech company or startup. This is from starting out at the first job, through leveling up to being senior, all the way to the staff/principal levels of making wide company or industry impact. I'm writing the type of book I wish I had earlier in my career. There's a lot of great books on how to write good code, but growing as a software engineer, working at a tech company goes well beyond just coding. If you'd like to get updates on the progress of this book, you can subscribe to updates or follow me here.
Finally, I'd like to share the top thing that helped me grow professionally, in all the environments I've worked in. Don't be afraid to ask the "stupid"/straightforward questions when you join a new company or team. No matter how inexperienced or experienced you are, being able to phrase what you don't know and ask for help really helps you and the person trying to help you. Early on in my career, I was lucky enough to do this subconsciously. Later, I started to do it consciously, whenever starting to learn a new technology. If there was someone around me who knew it well. I would tell them "I'll ask some basic questions when I'm stuck, but I promise to do my research before and not ask the same two questions ever." This simple thing helped me grow so much faster, I recommend you try it if you've not done it before.
I'm excited to be here and contribute, share my expertise and also learn from all of you!
Yay! Super great to have you!
me too
Thanks
If this is your welcome post, I can't wait to dive in to your actual post 😁
Hi Gergely! You sound very straight forward and simple. The notion of asking questions is really what I too like the most and do the most but as you said, will do a before hand research. I love to read the book since I'm pretty sure, this is going to help me a lot since I just started to climb the ladder in tech industry!!
Looking forward to explore the marvelous world of programming with your help.
Really excited to have your guidance.
Welcome to DEV Devanshu!
Thanks for sharing
Yeah!! That would be very helpful :D :D
How do I put emos by the way :p...
Hello bro can I get project to do work from home.
Warm welcome to you. Hope you have nice time with us.. Thanks for joining us.
Very impressive, thanks for sharing Gergely.
Are you still in Uber?
Hi
Hi everyone! My name's Gabi and I'm a software engineer at Etsy. I'm passionate about code, fostering kittens and making technology a more inclusive space for marginalized folks.
I struggle with anxiety around putting myself out there on the internet for criticism but I went to a talk by @jessleenyc at the Write/Speak/Code conference last year and dev.to seems like the perfect place to start sharing my knowledge with (hopefully kind) strangers.
I figure that if you're not pushing yourself outside of your comfort zone, you're not growing, so this is me, pushing myself outside of my comfort zone. 😅 I'm excited to start contributing to the excellent content here and getting to know this community better!
Welcome! You have the support of the whole moderator community supporting you.
Thank you, Ben! Happy to be here. ❤️
Hi Gabi, nice to find you here. Looking forward to your posts!
Hi Vanessa! What a small world / funny coincidence we both signed up within a couple days of each other. Looking forward to your posts as well!
Great to have you here 😊
Oooo I feel that anxiety! I thought to do the same thing today! Welcome!
I think it's super natural to feel anxious around putting yourself out there technically, but this seems like a place where people won't "ummm actually...". 🙏 Welcome to you too!
Yah, for sure! I'm super hopeful it won't be like that. :)
Welcome to DEV Gabi! I've found this to be one of the best places for devs to hang out online, so you've picked a good place :) What are you most interested in talking about?
Hi Chris! I'm currently working on a post about Elasticsearch and have some other topics in mind involving React/Redux, accessibility, side projects & productivity. Thanks for the welcome! :)
Awesome! Those all sound like things I'd be interesting in - can't wait to read them :)
Welcome Gabi! Looking forward to reading your content!
Welcome! I struggle with anxiety too, but with demonstrating what I know. A little of impostor syndrome.
I think imposter syndrome is tough to avoid when it's an uphill battle to prove that you're as capable as someone who fits the 'traditional' profile of a software engineer. If you ever want to chat about it, I have my open hours on my Linkedin profile :)
Welcome, Gabi! 🎉
Looking forward to seeing what you have to share 🙂
Thanks, Andrew! ❤️
Welcome to DEV Gabi! 👋
Hi everyone! I'm an AI volcanologist (🌋, rather than 🖖). A condition of my funding is communicating my research, and I'd rather do it in a friendly forum than shout out into the abyss of an obscure web-blog.
I've spent some time as a data scientist and back-end architect, so I'm also here to keep my skills fresh! I'm looking to keep a steady flow of articles out over the next year, with a 52-week blog challenge - 52 weekly blogs or articles on data analysis, writing good code in a scientific environment and computational research the natural sciences!
That's super awesome. Definitely interested to read all your blogs. My first career was as a biologist and I now work as a web dev, but have vague long-term goals about figuring out how to combine the two.
Wow! What a career change! I believe there will be a lot of job opportunities for people who can transit between the natural and computer sciences very soon.
Best of luck! :)
wow! volcanologist! that's amazing :o
Hi
hello
Hi Dev Community!
I am a self-taught Web Developer with a Bachelors in Industrial Engineering that decided to switch careers from the manufacturing industry to web development. Interesting enough, one of my first projects was to develop a web-based platform to automate administrative processes on the manufacturing industry. This web development /programmer approach suits me better 😆.
I run ctrl-y blog where I write about learning to program and changing careers.
Learning to program the web on my own has been fun, challenging, and exciting. Having a community to learn from makes it even better!
Hi Yari, it's just awesome your courage to get out of the box of your graduation and learn new things by your self! There isn't many people that can/want do this. So congratulations for your attitude, and welcome! 😁
Self-taught ftw! Welcome!
Hi there, glad to have you there! I've switched to Web Development just like you did but I was a former accountant. Thanks for sharing your blog with us!
hi hi
Hi Yari! Thank you for posting. I will definitely be following your blog :) I just started learning to code and changing careers.
Hi all, hi Gergely Orosz,
what brought me here was the Indie Hackers podcast with Ben Halpern I think, really inspiring (just as the Interview with Evan You :-))
I'm working on an Open Source temporal NoSQL document storage system called SirixDB written in Java (and a module in Kotlin) in my spare time. In my day to day job I'm also working as a backend Software Engineer. Besides I'm dancing a lot -- swing dances, mainly Lindy Hop and travel to festivals in Europe often times during my holidays :-)
SirixDB (sirix.io or github.com/sirixdb/sirix) is all about efficient versioning of your data. That is on the one hand it reduces the storage cost of storing a new revision during each transaction-commit while balancing read- and write-performance through a novel sliding snapshot algorithm and dynamic page compression. On the other hand Sirix supports easy query capabilities for instance to open a specific revision by a timestamp or several revisions by a given timespan, to navigate to future or past versions of nodes in the tree-structure and so on. It basically never overwrites data and is heavily inspired by ZFS and Git and borrows some ideas and puts these to test on the sub-file level.
In stark contrast to other approaches SirixDB combines copy-on-write semantics on a per revision and per page-level versioning. It does not require a write-ahead-log for consistency.
It all started around 2006 as a university / Ph.D. project of Marc Kramis and I worked on the project since 2007 and already did my Bachelor's Thesis, Master's Thesis as well as several HiWi-Jobs on topics regarding the project and I'm still more eager than ever to put forth the idea of a versioned, analytics plattform to perform analytical tasks based on current as well as the history of the data.
Hello, my name is Ted.
I have just started learning computer programming as a freshman at Tulsa Community College. I am starting with Python. I am handicapped, so I'm not as fast at typing as someone who can use both hands, but I am not going to let that stop me from learning how to code. Some of the questions I'm going to ask may sound simple to an experienced person, but at this point, I'm going to need all the help I can get.
Hey Ted. Having spent some time being one-handed, and knowing a few devers, have some insight. Maybe you've already figured it out, maybe not...
Laptops and their trackpads are way more efficient than a keyboard and mouse. IDEs and their "macros" can help you a lot. Most of the new-breed editors (Atom, VSCode, et al) have good support for hot-keys and language-specific stuff, on top of their contextual menus.
I think you'll find out that coding is as much about thinking as it is typing. You'll optimize the time between the two, as well as figuring out how to context-switch.
Invest as much time in learning to test your code as learning the language. I know for me, I was prone to more syntax (read spelling) issues when I was traveling the whole keyboard with one hand.
I didn't have much luck with speech-to-text tooling, but this was a while back for me. I know some developers who use it pretty well now. I don't know the toolchain but they've figured out how to wire up macros and hot-keys to voice actions.
Good luck to ya!
Hi Ted!👋 Welcome to the community. It's awesome to have you here.
Welcome! DEV is great for getting help :) Good to have you
Welcome to party! Glad to see you here! And never be afraid of asking what you don't know yet. We all have been there.
I'm willing to help if you want on anything :)
Hello,
I'm having trouble with the same type of question I ask for help last week. The instructor isn't any help, and I hope you can help me figure this out. After you read the question they expect us to figure out the solution to the code. There are no examples that help to solve this question, and I have no idea where to start.
Write a single statement that assigns avg_sales with the average of num_sales1, num_sales2, and num_sales3.
Sample output with inputs: 3 4 8
Average sales: 5.00
When you have a minute can you help me figure this out, please?
Thank you,
Theodore Rahm
Hi, everyone. I am a self-taught front-end developer that has a Bachelor's in Elementary Education. Looking to switch career paths and currently applying for developer jobs. I currently know how to code in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, and now starting to learn back-end skills. I am happy to help where I can!
Welcome to the party! Nice to know that you are a brave person looking for great challenges.
I'll be glad to support you on anything I can :)
Pleasure to seen such a great set of skills. Looking forward to learn from you :)
Hello Guys...
I'm called Bless Darah, a UI Designer and Frontend Developer at Y'G Inc Cameroon.
I love being around people who can teach and mentor me to be the best in what I do. The articles here on DEV are just so super awesome that I would love to learn how to write like the distinguished authors of such articles.
I want my voice to be heard (not with the wrong knowledge of course, but with distilled and well filtered content that will come from a community like this one) as every man has a story to tell. I'm certain that my successes, mistakes and failures can help to be an eye-opener to many.
I'm therefore more than excited to see how my own contribution can help inspire the entire coding community.
Cheers!
Welcome to DEV! The best way to learn how to write well is to practice :) and this is a great community to do that on - I look forward to your articles!
Thank you very much Chris.
I'm gonna do my best
Hello Folks!!
I'm a Computer Science undergraduate at Indian Institute of Technology Bhubaneswar. I have worked with CERN-HSF as a GSoC Student and Amazon as an SDE Intern in past and will be joining Amazon as SDE next year.
I was occasionally lurking here from a long time but today I finally decided to have an account to involve more and contribute and I can't be more excited to be here and learn as much as I can from the wonderful people present here.
Great to have you Aman! Nice job getting into Amazon as an SDE :)
Thank You, Chris. It's just the start of a long journey.
Hi,
I am here to learn more about React, React-Native, Angular, Vue from all of you!
I'm a web developer, storyteller, Amateur football analyst who's addicted to food and reading articles on Medium (I think it is going to change to Dev.io) and playing games on Xbox. I love talking about web development frameworks, libraries, strategies, work hacks that I've learned from my own experience and reading them online.
Here's what a few of Managers and Senior Manager of Deloitte Consulting said:
"I’m lucky to have got the opportunity to work with you! You demonstrated excellent analytical skills and an unrivaled breadth AND depth of knowledge for the amount of experience you have."
"Similar to Mili I too was amazed at the depth of functional and process knowledge you had."
I am grateful that you took the time to read it. I'd like to know YOU! Just send me an invitation and connect with me here!
If I can help you with anything, please reach out to me at samratat@gmail.com or you can connect via Medium or my portfolio samratghosh-portfolio.herokuapp.com/
Programming Languages and Tools -
HTML5, CSS3, JS (ES2016), Bootstrap, Angular, React, Vue, Npm, Node.js, Git, GitHub, BitBucket, Jira, VS Code
Welcome! I also switched from medium to DEV, and have been super happy. Good to have you! :)
Yeah, I am already loving it! Thank you!
Hello guys! I am a beginner still studying and have not really participated in any development projects yet...still doing some minor demo projects as i learn.stumbled upon this community which caught my attention and I anticipate participating and contributing as i learn from great minds.
Hi all, I've been teaching myself web development for 15 years after I taught myself vba and Access databases (With a lot of help from the web of course).
From simple database driven websites I specialised in html emails for a while and built a PHP MySQL driven html email Newsletter building application for a company I was working for and am now building a custom CRM / Time-sheet system for the company I am now working for, again using PHP and MySQL (and HTML and CSS).
I'm loving expanding on it and adding new features and making people's job easier and more productive.
I've also been developing Wordpress websites for a while.
I love learning and love passing on what I've learnt.
Welcome to DEV Alan! This is a great place to learn and share :) Of all the tech you've used in 15 years - what has been your favorite?
Thanks Chris, I do enjoy working with PHP and have been using PDO and prepared queries for a long time now. I do get a joy out of refractoring and optimising my code especially once I learned to create my own custom functions. I would still rank myself as just entering intermediate skill level though and look forward to improving my PHP coding skills. I am particularly interested in security and am always looking for ways to make my web based applications more secure.
Hello, I was just reading an article and bumbled my way into this. I work in web support now but am working on my first marketable WP theme, while also learning to become a JS developer, plans to also become a PHP dev as well. I love to design UI and web pages but I also start nerding out hardcore on page speed, analytics, and then turn around and run marketing campaigns. I don't know man, guess I'll be happy anywhere I land as long as I can have the freedom to be creative.
Welcome to the dev.to community!
Thank you!!!
Boy, it's good to be here! I've been a fan of dev.to from afar for a long time now. I just left Over where I helped extend their flagship design tool (think Adobe Photoshop or Sketch but simpler!) into the Websphere alongside our Android and IOS counterparts.
The engineer in me loves design, composition, and value-driven impact. The learner in me loves connecting and growing with people like you.
I would love to collaborate with anyone who is interested in building great products together or knows of others that might be. Please don't hesitate to reach out, I don't bite ;)
Hi, i am working as web designer, i am very passionate to web design and web development. After reading some articles in freecodecamp i found this forum as a suggestion to get more into coding.I am here mostly to learn something from others and getting more confident in coding bcz i don't have to much experience .
Wish you all happy coding.
Good to have you! This site is great for learning :) good luck on your coding journey!
Thanks
Hi everyone,
I feel good about this forum!
I am an independent software developer and content creator. It had not once occurred to me growing up, that I could teach myself engineering and actually be hired to do it, until I did exactly that about two years ago, after leaving a career in public finance as an economic analyst.
I feel very strongly about the quality of information in engineering and software education, especially for people who want to transition their careers or for people who just want to embark on an amazing odyssey. My goal is to add to the effort of creating thorough, clear-cut content that imparts in an insightful way. I believe that anyone can get going with this stuff at any point in their lives.
I plan to contribute as much as I can and as best I can and I can't do it alone.
I recently started a blog.
It's currently focused on programming basics with C as a learning tool. I hope for it to become a resource filled with ground-up tutorials on the most pressing software subjects of our time.
If you read this through to the end then know that you have made me a very happy camper.
I'll see you in the feeds!
Welcome to DEV Emille! Congrats on starting your blog 🎉
Thank you Chris! Super happy to be here 😎
Hello guys! 👋
My name is Anton and I am currently an economist that works a normal 9-5 job that has no involvement of programming at all. I do, however, have a big interest in it, so I spend most of spare time (and work time...😇) trying to learn as much as I can as I greatly enjoy it. I have been doing programming on my leisure time for maybe 2-3 years, I hope that in a couple of years I might be working with it in some way.
Since I found this site I have learned so much, and everyone seems so friendly. Finally, I created my own account, and I don't think I'll regret it. I have written some articles about programming myself and hope to share some newly created as soon as possible.
I am so excited to get started to participate, learn and hopefully share some knowledge as well.
Welcome to DEV Anton! Glad you liked it enough to join :) Looking forward to your articles!
Welcome!
Hi everyone! Super excited to be here. I'm @tindall@cybre.space (though I can't put that in my profile, apparently, because cybre.space isn't allowed?) and NoraCodes on GitHub and pretty much everywhere else. My website is nora.codes.
I write a ton of Rust and Python, plus some Go and Lua (my original language!), and I'm just about to finish up my undergraduate degree in Computer Science at Beloit College. If you're in the Midwest and looking for a junior engineer with a good deal of internship experience, hit me up!
Hi Nora! Welcome!
Thanks!
Hey folks!
I'm a bit of a career nomad. Biochemistry degree, some kind of an accountant, and now branching slowly but surely into App and Web Development. I don't know where I fit in but I'll figure it out eventually.
I love to learn, I'm stubborn with a problem, and I've been working on FreeCodeCamp for two months now. I've learned a ton. I have used VBA almost every day at work for a couple years, Years ago I taught myself Java, Obj-C, and then Swift to feed my desire to make apps, and I just can't seem to learn enough. Fascinated by all the puzzles out there.
Nice to be here. :)
Welcome to DEV Patrick! This is a great site for figuring out where you fit :) It sounds like you're trying a bunch of different things - which is what I recommend for sure. Good luck!
Hey everyone,
I have actually been here since 2017 but was lurking in the corners, slowly building up the courage to post something ( I have a few drafts on Laravel, oAuth, Slack Bots, and general WordPress shenanigans ) 🤭
I'm one of those self-taught people, lead developer, doing front and backend, digital user journey/deanonymization, AB testing, innovation, and process on a large nationwide ( Canada ) automotive website.
I think that my generality has caused me to have a bit of an identity crisis in terms of title, so I just default to web stuff, because innovation sounds pretentious and programmer sounds like I know what I'm doing 😉
Over the past 15 years, I have worked in bike shops, startups, government, agencies, and now corporate.
I have always struggled with focus and procrastination ( so many things to do! ), and I would say impostor syndrome. But I have identified this and have worked really hard lately to do... Less. Yes doing less work in the evenings and spending more time with family, woodworking, riding bikes has helped tremendously.
Managing has meant that personal technical growth has slowed but I tend to lean into the unknown most of the time. I think what has helped me though is a willingness to jump in and learn.
I'm excited to learn that next thing, see how something works and just try new stuff!
Hi guys, I won't write so much because I'm still an english student and I'm not very good yet, so I'm sorry for any mistakes.
I'm Brazilian, from Rio de Janeiro, 25 yo, Systems of Information student, love everything about technology. During my free time I like playing League of Legends and The Sims 👩💻
I'm here because next day 16 I'll start as a Java developer intern, so I'm a little bit nervous and anxious, because I know very little about Java, so my future manager sent me this link dev.to/yusufcodes/what-i-learned-f... and I thought the purpouse of this site just amazing, and wanted to join it 😁. As well I think it will be good to practice english reading 😄
Hi Elen! Is this your first job? It's totally normal to be nervous but it's great you'll be getting experience working in a company.
I would recommend this course on Codecademy for learning Java and you'll probably find other free tutorials for the language. Java was one of the first languages I learned in school (although I don't use it now).
Dev is a really great site, I spend at least a few min each day going through the feed.
By the way, your English is great. 👍
Hey Dana, thank you so much! I didn't know this site, saved it here to take a look later. This is not my first job, actually I already worked a lot in my life in secular jobs, but this is the first one in my study area, with a real programming language, and I'm afraid of seem ... You know , dumb or idiot. Like "You already should know something"... But it's just my anxiety speaking, I know that. My future coworkers seem great, I got no reason for think these things, but sometimes it's inevitable.
For now I'm studying Objects Oriented in Java on Coursera, and "Curso em Video", a brazilian site with a fantastic professor.
And thanks again, you're an angel. I take almost a year to write a small text in English 😂😂
Hey! I'm a self taught web developer and backend developer. I have joined dev.to to post how I found out new ways and how I got challenged while coding my project.
The current project I'm working on is an open source chat client. Here is my website: nertivia.supertiger.tk
I'm really happy to be here to share the challenges I will be encountering and will be sure to help others too and learn from you.
Thanks for reading!
Welcome to DEV Supertiger!
Thank you!
Hi all, I've been in IT for over 40years, but am still a geek. Right now, developing a IoT cloud platform for remote sensors. Multi-threaded Python script to aggregate data from various sources into a NoSQL MongoDB, then NodeJS/Express API to display in a browser. Working with 3rd-party API from Google, Here and UK MetOffice. Everything runs securely behind nginx in Docker containers on VPS in Paris & Amsterdam. My big (huge) issue is UX as I am just a bodging engineer, more comfortable with a command line. Having just read a few posts, I am really keen to dive in deeper - thanks for all the content!
Welcome to DEV! 40 years - impressive! What's the biggest shift in the industry that you've seen over that time?
So many! I started out designing in pure TTL products like papertape reader/punches and being so excited that we could simplify the design with a single chip - the UART.
The PC didn't arrive until 1981, when a 5MB 5-inch hard drive cost as much as the original IBM PC-XT (about £1200). My first portable was manufactured by Philips and ran CP/M (P2000C).
As a coder, I was modifying the 4096 bytes of assembler that ran 'green screen' text terminals. Every byte was precious. I am staggered by current software bloat, for example, 1.16Gb just by the simple act of 'npm install --save-dev nodemon'.
To actually answer your question, though - the biggest shift has to be the reliance on Google to problem-solve - one could argue that it stifles innovation. People tend not to think an issue through; instead, just search for someone who has done something similar.
😮 ... I mean - I knew node modules could be big but; ha; that seems excessive :)
Interesting point about Google: immediate answers like that didn't exist even 20 years ago!
Neat perspective; thanks :)
I've found that Google can be used for good. :D
Nic, I think your point about "reliance" is spot on. I don't necessarily think it's bad to use "search" as an extension of our memory. However, it is critically important for us problem-solvers to evaluate that memory for various things. Obviously it's easy to search and find a solution - e.g. a library that provides the functionality we need. We just need to keep going and be concerned with it to some level of depth that makes sense.
I personally struggle with the depth problem a bit. I get super-focused on the problem I'm actually trying to solve and don't always due the diligence required to prevent becoming dependent on external sources of functionality that may not be good.
I've been working on "Trust but Verify" - to think a bit more critically about search results (whether at Google or Github). But man isn't StackOverflow a savior more often than not?
Absolutely :) sooo many hours saved by just googling for the answer to some problem I'm having (using configuration issues! soooo annoying!) and finding a great SO answer :)
Howdy Dev co peeps,
I'm a self taugh full stack dev, from NY. Learning MERN stack and a little gamedev stuff in unreal engine as a hobby. I'm also working full time in a non tech job, attempting to one-day transition over.
Hi :) My name is Lais, I'm a 3rd year IT student in Dublin and I got here through Stack Overflow. On my daily-browse to find queries to answer (I'm quite a newbie on practical aspects) I found the 'DEV' sharing button and got me curious. This seems great! A kind of DevReddit, good stuff!
I am now trying to become more proficient in Python and studying ML algorithms, retro-feeding my excitement for DevOps.
Hi I’m Will. I’m a Chef who is working to bring kitchens and restaurants into the 21st century! Twitter brought me here!
I write Vanilla JavaScript and I’m currently learning React, my first framework.
Welcome to DEV Will! React is awesome :) how's learning it going? Good luck bringing restaurants into the modern age!
Hey Everybody! I'm Jesse. I live in boulder... I love Jamstack tech, linux... shoot just all of it. I work as an integration software developer at a small PEO... hello pythong!
I found this by accident looking at a post about prisma multi-tenancy applications. Really excited to get to know everyone here.
Welcome to DEV Jesse! I love all of it too 🤣 This is the right place for that!
Hello Everyone,
I am excited to be a part of DEV community. I am an IT Student. I am very much Passionate about Front-end development. My strong points are HTMl & CSS. I want to make my JS strong.
I hope this community will help me throughout my learning path. Ofcourse, I will share my knowledge as well.
Welcome! DEV is a great place to learn and share :) Good luck on your front-end journey!
Hi! Here out of curiosity.
I'm a full-stack developer.
Django was my tool of choice for many projects. Now switching to Firebase.
Frontend life is mainly with React with hooks. I don't like Redux with it's global store (variable).
That's pretty much it.
Oh, recently started my personal blog: gabrielgamil.com
Only 1 post for now on Django & Firebase integration. If you'll have a chance to read it any feedback is much appreciated. I have a feeling there are things to improve there.
One of the reasons for starting a blog is to learn stuff. I feel that it actually helps when writing down all the different parts after the initial programming and successful program run.
Also trying to prepare myself for Google certification exams.
So basically, hi!
Hi Gabriel - welcome to DEV!
I took a look at your blog post - looks great! I have been curious about Firebase and how auth works for a bit, so it was a good article for that. Keep at it!
Hello Chris,
thanks a lot for the feedback.
Sure I will continue what I have started. Turns out it's not as easy as I expected at the beginning. Still very satisfying. Especially when there is feedback - magic.
I am already working on my second post.
Thanks.
Hey everyone!
I started to work as a data scientist in a sort of marketing company half a year ago. Relatively new to coding with python with only a year’s worth of experience. Transitioned to data science after my PhD in neuroscience and absolutely fell in love with coding after I switched to python from matlab.
Now I’m looking to get more connected with the coding community, open source and such.
Happy to share my experience from switching to the industry from academia, too!
Welcome :) happy you joined this great community!
Excited to learn something new........
Welcome to DEV! This is a great place to learn new things :)
(Also - love the minion profile picture 🤪)
🙌🏻
Welcome to DEV, Suraj! I'm excited you're here!
Yup..😜 ✌🏻
I am Sasi varna kumar. Having 8+ years experience in Joomla and PHP development. Now I am running a web agency with 8+ developers working with international clients being top rated upwork freelancer.

Welcome to DEV!
Hi everyone!, My name is Judith (you can call me Jud), I'm a Computer System engineer from Mexico. I'm kind of shy and I've never introduce myself in a Internet platform, so I'm trying to do my best.
I'm currently working in a company that has clients internationally. I found this platform and I found it very interesting and a good place to learn from other programmers. My dream is to create my own company and I'm mainly looking to become a freelancer but I know I have a lot to learn yet.
I hope to get along with everyone and learn a lot.
Welcome Judith!
If you're looking to become a freelancer, I have 2 tips I give to everyone looking to go down that route:
Save up some money first: Freelancing is hard because clients can fall through, or not pay for awhile, and sometimes it takes a long time to finish a project, bill the client, and have them pay. So make sure you have some savings you can fall back on if things go sideways
Start to "become a visible expert" in your space: that might mean a blog, or ebook, or doing presentations (that are recorded and put on youtube), but basically: have something you can point to, so that people know that you know what you're talking about.
Other than that: good luck! I hope things go well for you :)
Hey all, I’m Christopher. I’m the web developer over at the City of Oakland. I’ve been both a freelancer and an agency dev, depending on my mood for the past 16+ years.
I’ve worked for anime companies, city programs, and various non-profit organizations and find that I love most to work in teams where I can share my knowledge and learn from others.
I’ve got a strong focus in HTML & CSS, Information Architecture, Client Services, and lately Accessibility (currently aiming for WCAG 2.1 AA+ ratings for work). I’m also working on learning more JavaScript than simple functionality/interactivity on a web page. Vue has definitely piqued my interest of late.
I’m interested in a more equitable web and making things that are accessible to more people, and encouraging people to think beyond #a11y being an issue around disability but also financial status, location, and many other barriers that people on the web encounter!
Pleased to meet all of you!
Good to meet you Christopher! From one Chris to another: welcome to DEV ;)
Welcome message
I everyone 👋! My name is Gil Mendes and I’m a Lead Full-stack Developer at @pixelmatters in Oporto, Portugal. I’m passionate about technology in general but with special love by Web, OSDev and how to do things in a better and enjoyable way.
I’m trying to improve myself in the area of writing and spoken English while along the way I share one thing or two about interesting topics to me and things that I learned along the way that will make you save neurons 🧠 😅
BTW… I’m the creator of Stellar a JS Framework to write an action-based API without effort and I love React, Vue, Rust, and the Web Components vision. Well, I’m on the path to become a better DevOps soo lots of Docker, Swarm, and Kubernetes on my dreams… 😁
Welcome to DEV Gil!
I checked out Stiller - looked neat! The one thing I might say is that I had to dig into the docs to really figure out what it does, so it might be nice to add a few more examples or descriptions to the homepage, just so people can understand what it is, and why they might want to use it. Other than that - looks good!
Thanks, Chris, really appreciate your feedback. I'll for sure do a re-design and add a clear explanation of "what it is" and "why you should use it" 🙂
Hello, I come from an engineering background in electronics but I discovered that I don't want it to be what I do for a living. I specialize in hacking electronic gadgets. for example, in my last project, I hacked a coffee machine and made it accept bitcoin and ether as a payment.
I left my job in the last march on a journey to find what I really want to do. and I discovered I like writing code all day long which is something I used to like doing during my college days, so here I am.
I am currently learning flutter and dart, I believe in learning by doing so am currently working on a simple app that helps people stay connected with other people whether for professional purposes or to keep your social life intact.
so I appreciate any advice about skills, tools I need to learn on my journey in software development.
I am super excited to be here with this amazing community. Have a good day, people.
Welcome to DEV! Flutter and Dart look neat - I've wanted to experiment with them for awhile. What do you like about them so far?
As for advice I'd say: just keep doing what you're doing! The journey can seem long and difficult, but if you just keep doing a little at a time, day by day - eventually you'll get to where you want to go. So don't stop! Keep learning, and keep doing.
Good luck!
Hi everyone! =)
I'm a passionate UI developer, front end also, I love the web technologies, I'm based in Jerusalem Israel and I'm excited about this platform.
I'm especially a huge lover of CSS
Welcome! Do you have any neat CSS tips to share that you've recently learned? Good to have you on DEV!
Hi @chris and thanks!
I think I'm a bit late these days on CSS, because I was mostly working as an employee for companies who need systems compatible with non modern browsers and that blocks us to learn edge stuff. Recently I began to go deeper into CSS for personal projects, and so late am I...
1) Display: Grid is amazing but quite complicated. And only now I master flex after these years... I had tips before flex coming, I was using display table and it was great help.
2) May be my biggest tip would be that I use CSS for everything as much as possible, and I'm proud of it: with JS, I mostly toggle CSS classes (especially on the body or the #app div) and then handle the whole behavior in the CSS.
Examples:
a) when a side menu is opened, I add on the menu "menu-opened"
b) when I toggle a language, I add the menu "en" or whatever language. I also add "rtl".
With the depth of CSS nowadays, it handles most of the UI cases easily (for the ones who like me love CSS, I know that some hate it).
3) I know there are tips outside for click event in CSS, but I'm not sure it's that stable, I really hope they are going to add this click event native in CSS
4) I have read yesterday that they are implementing nesting in native CSS! Yay. We have to admit, 90% of the people out there use Sass mostly for variables and nesting. I hope it will come out asap.
5) I recently created a project with: Vue, Firebase, PWA, Material web components, headless CMS (Flamelink) and it takes a lot of time to learn and put everything together all alone, but at the end, it's worth it. Just saying for people with my profile to don't be scared, take your time and go for it.
6) I realized only now, after 10 years programming, that a programmer is simply a guy who knows some code, and is asked to do tasks he has no idea how to fix, searches, tries, gets errors, and finally finds the solution. So if anyone is reading that and is in my situation, scared to don't succeed, just chill, only a handful of geniuses are not that way. 90% of programmers just jump. Big clients of the Imposter Syndrome. Don't let yourself into it!
7) Another tip: the best way to learn is to have your own projects that you love. When you love, you really search solutions for its problems, and you remember them, you also keep their code that you can copy/paste in the future.
From CSS tips I went to tips to youngsters, but why not?
Awesome list! I definitely agree that doing things in CSS is a great way to go. I tend to jump right into JS, but yes - there is so much you can do in CSS that I should probably learn :)
Also on point #6: definitely! So much of software development is just learning how and when to google for things... I just do that constantly! 🤣
Also - if you're looking for something to post on DEV as an article - I encourage you to think about posting some of these points! They're great, and most devs probably need to hear them at some point :)
I never wrote and I was always attracted to, especially sharing to beginners who need some guidance. How does that work here?
There's a button in the top right of your screen called "Write a Post" - click that and you'll get an editor.
Here are some tips:
Then click publish!
The first post is the hardest :) but after you get the feel for it, it becomes easier.
and if you do post it, you can share it here and I'll definitely check it out! Good luck :)
Ok, I wrote up all those steps as its own post :) Here it is - how to write your first post on DEV!

Hope that helps :)
Hey everyone! I'm Jeff, I most recently worked remotely for a company called Future Foundry as a Full Stack developer on a handful of different web/native projects, while there I also worked as a vendor for BCGDV for a few months. Now, I am currently looking for new opportunities.
I consider myself a life-long learner and love sharing my dev projects and experiences with others. Most recently I've been trying to be more active in the development community and have had a blast doing so. I am interested in contributing to open-source and just finding ways to be creative and helpful to others. Also thought about doing a #100daysofcode challenge just for fun.
Looking forward to getting to know everyone!
Hi all! I'm Sheeza, working as a senior software Engineer at Jarus Technologies,Hyderabad, India. I'm into my journey into the world of Software industry. Going bit by bit by learning new technologies. I'm here as I was learning angular concepts.
Hope to give and gain best from the Dev community.
Hello! I'm a junior dev looking for a job, preferably in the Seattle area, but I'm open to remote or relocating. I'd love to meet up with anyone else in the industry. I've travelled Central America a lot and can't wait to go back.
Welcome to DEV! Sorry, I don't know of any openings near Seattle, but good luck on your job search!
Thank you! And no worries, that would have been too easy.
Hello everybody! I'm Dan and I have just begun studying web development at a university in Sweden where I also live. I'm currently working as a doctor but I've always been interested in computer programming and I read a lot by myself.
I decided this year to enroll in more "official" university studies and maybe make a new/additional carreer out of it :)
I've read some dev.to posts before and I could learn a lot from them so here I am!
Hi All, I am a self-taught student, teaching myself how to code, I have interest in #javascript and #python. Learning to code on my own is so hard, I hope to get a mentor here to assist me throughout this process and I will also help someone in future,
Hi @nyangedix ,
Hi Saurabh
Hello Guys, i'm a growthhacker in a recruitment/tech company in Tunisia, i discovered this website through some webscraping tutorial, and it loved i !
I'm new to programming, and willing to learn basics for a better understanding of my job, and for automation purpose, since i'm always using premade tools, i found myself stuck without coding skills, so i'm learning python, (sorry for bad english, not my mother tongue) excited to be here and learn from you guys !
Welcome to dev.to! Best of luck for your journey as a developer.
Hi guys.
I am an Android developer, I love to participate in large and robust projects, breastfeeding good code and complying with the principles of Uncle Bob, “SOLID”.
I am currently in a big problem, which is why I arrived or turned out here, I am migrating a monolithic android project to Multi-Module, I don't know how to start and not die trying since I must guarantee that each module has its unit tests.
Any advice or suggestion of blogs would be helpful friends.
Another problem I have encountered is navigation or communication between Modules, among this, there are some alternatives with Injection Dependences, Dagger and Koin.
Dagger is the most common and the one suggested by Google but it is the most complicated.
Koin I see that it is super easy, I have not worked.
I don't know which one to choose for my Migration Friends, so it would be great to help or advice which way to choose.
Thank you very much to all.
Hello guys! I am still studying and have not participated in any development projects yet. The community caught my attention and I look forward to participating and contributing.
Welcome! What are you currently most interested in?
Thank you! At the moment, I am more interested in web development with node and react, but I am still learning how a system should work and how to handle http requests.
Very nice - node and react are definitely popular right now :) It does take awhile just to get comfortable with the basics like http though, definitely. Good luck with your learning!
Thank you very much!
New to dev.to. I am here for:
1) Cross-skill myself with new technologies and tools
2) Implement them in my project
Welcome! are there any new technologies you're really excited to start learning?
Yes, I would like to get good in JS and NodeJS for test automation.
And I would like to learn React and master it for web development. Currently, I don't know anything about it.
Sounds good! Those are all great things to learn, and DEV is a great place to learn them :) Good luck! And let me know if you need any help with JS/React stuff :)
Thanks, Chris for personally welcoming me over here.
I would surely require your help to learn React. Could you guide me from where to start?
The react docs themselves are very good: reactjs.org/docs/getting-started.html
There's also a great free video course on egghead that walks you through the basics of react: egghead.io/courses/the-beginner-s-...
Beyond that, I definitely just recommend trying things out and playing around. codesandbox.io is a great resource, because you can create a new "React" sandbox in one click - and you're off and going! Then you can mess around and change the source, and instantly see what happens in the browser preview.
Also, I have something new coming out soon too! But it's not quite all ready and up yet - but be watching out for it soon! 😉
Thanks so much. I will start learning step by step with the above links. I will also ask you questions if I get stuck anywhere. :)
Hi everyone! My name is Steph and I am currently navigating the waters of front-end development. I received my bachelors in marketing and moved to NYC to work in communications for a startup. The work was dull and I felt like I was wasting my time doing something I hated. After talking to a developer on my team (who is now my mentor!) he gave me some tips and online resources that would allow me to teach myself to code. Fast forward a couple months and I was up till 3-4 AM because I couldn't get enough of it!
Recently, I've been dealing with a lot of anxiety and impostor syndrome. Maybe that comes with the self-taught route? Sometimes I feel like I don't know what I'm doing...but then I remind myself that I'm taking the steps every day to get closer to the job I want. As long as I keep building and learning - I believe it will all work out.
Because I'm so new to this I'm excited to join the community and learn from all of you :) If anyone has any podcast recommendations - let me know! I'm always looking for new ways to immerse myself in programming!
Totally hear you on the self-taught uncertainty. Best thing for me was talking to more people - now I'm better at putting my abilities in context and choosing what to focus on. You're right - any time you solve a new problem you're closer to your goals, no time spent learning this stuff is wasted.
Joining DEV is an excellent step!
Hi,
I've joined only recently so not much input really. Just started to learn coding so I'm talking basic HTML5 and CSS etc... I love it because it is like a language you use to talk to a computer and I love languages.
I like the advise from G Orosz about: "I'll ask some basic questions when I'm stuck, but I promise to do my research before and not ask the same two questions ever."
I'm going to apply that more, I think people can accept/respect a basic question if you have at least tried to look it up and are not asking them something you asked last week. I've learned to write things down as I can be forgetful at times then I can refer back to it if I forget :-)
Hi everyone👋I'm a computer science student from East London, South Africa👋 I just started my journey in development & I'm loving it 😎
Welcome! What are you starting with?
Java my kind Sir...so pointers are all welcome
Great choice! You can do almost anything with Java. I don't know it, but one thing you might be interested in in Processing. It gives you an environment where it's easy to write Java code for visual animations and simulations, so you can get started building some really cool things quickly.
Thanks man I'll check it out
Hi all, I'm Vanessa and I'm a Software Engineer at Greenhouse Software. I'm from Ecuador 🇪🇨but I live in Brooklyn, NY. I heard about dev.to at work and I'm excited to join this community!

Welcome to DEV Vanessa!
Hi people
I'm Michael, I'm an engineer at a super exciting company called Peak based in Manchester, UK. I'm also a tutor at a bootcamp, Manchester Codes. I primarily do full stack JavaScript, and lots of AWS, but I've been learning about Typescript, Go and GCP too. I love both of my jobs - although I'm currently on a year sabbatical travelling the world 🌎 while traveling I'm still working at the bootcamp doing coding for a few hours each week, and just doing some of my own projects. I've had an account on here for a couple of years just lurking and reading posts. I've learned so much from the community and there's so many posts that I've shared with my students! I decided that it's probably time to get actively involved instead of just lurking. I've got a few ideas that I might post about from my recent learning experiences. But it's nice to be here in the community and say hello, and I'm looking forward to maybe helping some of you like many of you have helped me!
Hi developers! My name is Godson and i'm a mobile application developer for both android and iOS.

Welcome!
Hello everyone! I am working as Product Engineer in small Financial organization.
Currently I am learning React and Python.
I am a design speaker and also member of various Google Developers Groups.
I am excited to contribute here on designing and learn more about various technologies from all of you!
Welcome to DEV! What's your day to day work like as a product engineer? I'd love to know a bit more about what that involves :)
Greetings! Every one.. I'm currently a final year computer science engineering student,and self taught programmer.now learning to become a good web developer... I'm here to join with a great community of programmers who always there to help me out..
Welcome Sanjay! Good luck in your final year :)
Can I post links to my tech blog where I already created posts and pages of interest to developers or do I have to recreate them? Or is there an import feature?
There is an import feature! You can import your existing blog via rss:
dev.to/settings/publishing-from-rss
Good to know, hopefully the canonical is set for the original.
I assume it does - if not, you can manually set it on the "write a post" page. (when you import from RSS, it imports the stories as drafts, so you can check the canonical before you publish)
Well, I decided to just see for myself. So far the author experience is a joy to work with given that all of my content is already in markdown! And I see the canonical setting as well. Thanks for your replies Chris.
Great! Glad it worked like you expected :)
Hi everyone! 👋 I'm currently a product manager, but I'm just an marketer/engineer that makes things works.
I love to share how to solve simple and complex business problems. Usually I'm writing on Medium, publishing articles on Hackernoon, The Startup and some others on my profile.
I'm going to share some articles, on my blog, write some interesting articles (some "how to") regarding main topics I usually writing: product management, conversion rate optimization and machine learning.
I've recently roll out an MVP (really really basic, through Google Data Studio) where I would like to solve one simple problem: the best and simplest way to read commerce business data. Why? Because it's really hard to answer some questions related to a business and not always we know the best marketing stuff to do next. That's the link
I'm very happy if someone can help me for testing the dashboard with its own data and/or sharing their feedback (any, it'll really appreciated).
Finally, I'm happy to contribute to this community.

Hey !
First of all, congrats ! Most of the work is to be motivated and to keep it up !
However, it strongly depends of what you mean by "strong programmer" and what are your goals.
I would love to help you if you have any questions ! Don't hesitate to contact me :)
What I mean by strong programmer is ability to program competently and more professionally in any industry I find myself.
My goal is to be a full stack programmer at the earliest possible time.
I want to switch career from Customer service to full stack programming.

Hi everybody.
I am David, currently working as a Web Developer (I work with Vue and Django/DRF) while learning new stuff every day (as many of people reading this I guess!).
After finding dev.to most of my technical searches on Google, I decided to join here.
I have been a passive member of the programming community and I took so much from it in the form of video tutorials, forums, blog posts, etc. As I grew as a programmer by many people giving their knowledge for free, now I want to give back something to the community.
That's why I started my own blog [Let's learn about[letslearnabout.net/], started my Youtube channel, answering questions on Reddit and Quora, and now I'm here. The reason is the same: I received help when I needed, now that I can I want to help others. Besides that, you learn twice when you teach others.
So from now on, we'll be reading each other here :)
Welcome David!

I'm happy to contribute my experience and ideas there as well!
Hello,
I´m Java developer and looking for java content e more others technology in this beautiful community rs...
Hello everyone, my name Brandon and I am looking to possibly make a career change from the Networking world into the development world. I have tried several times to learn code but for one reason or another I never gave it "the ole college try". Now I have decided join the 100 days of code challenge and I am just completed the basic CSS module of free code camp.
So far through this experience, the idea that is being projected is if I learn HTML, CSS, JS that I will be ready to make a living from this field but as move forward, I start running into other frameworks and tools that will also be required. Not to mention all of the auxiliary skills that has to be obtained like understanding SDLC, GIT, industry best practices when working within specific languages and their real world applicability, and working within a team (To be fair, I am new so I know I haven't seen every resource out there).
At this point I feel like I am understanding the basics of HTML and CSS but I also keep running into things that sound interesting and when I start looking into them, I immediately become overwhelmed and self-doubt starts to creep in. And forget about back-end development!! At that point I remind myself that I am a beginner and then I run back into my basics hole.
So far it seems like this industry is full of people that can relate to the struggle so that is super helpful. I look forward to learning from you all and possibly picking your brains!
I am web developer from Nigeria. I am looking to learn and broaden my scope.I am learning flutter right now.
Hello everyone!
My name is Metin Dikbas. I am a software engineer. Currently, I am working as a Full Stack Developer in Republic of Turkey Ministry of Family, Labour and Social Services to maintain and develop Turkey’s Integrated Social Assistance System.
Other than development, I am also interested in other topics about computers like networking, security, active directory. Just to learn these topics, I built a small network in my home with modems, switches, vlans, computers, firewall and lots of cable ( Do not ask the cost of electricity :) ). I guess I find technology is so attractive. Currently, I am following Udemy courses to learn new technologies and best practices about developing microservices.
My dream is being an executive in a technology company. I believe I will achieve. I guess you all know, there is a saying 'Believing is half the battle'. The other half is just hardworking.
Last but not least, I am excited to be here to both share my thoughts and experiences and learn yours. I wish you all have a nice career path and happy life.
Best Regards,
Metin DIKBAS

Hi All,
I'm a director and founder of ResRequest that we started in 2001. We have 600+ properties in 17 countries as customers and a team of just over 30 people and counting.
We were on the bleeding edge of browser-based app development with PHP long before it became mainstream.
I am here because I read some excellent articles and decided it was a good place to find inspiration and learn how to improve our software delivery efficiency.
Excited to interact, share, and mostly to learn!
Welcome to DEV! It's a great place to find inspiration, definitely :)
Hi, I recently started in programming, looking for some tips to improve my skills here.
Welcome! This is a good place for improving skills :) What are you currently interested in?
I'm starting with Python, it was the first language I had contact in college and I enjoyed learn about it. In my first projects I'm using the framework flask and getting all the basic concepts of web development.
Python's a good first language - good luck!
Thanks! :)
Hey Guys, My name is Manuel Chris-Ogar and I'm an Android Engineer at Konga Shopping Limited, Lagos, Nigeria. I love to share what I learn and occasionally I volunteer to help people who are just starting their careers in software development. I believe that I have a long way to go from where I want to be, but I try to learn more each day to get better and help people when I can. I will occasionally try to share my learning, experiences and encouragement for people who may need them.
Hey! I found DEV after finding out that it has partnered with StackOverflow. I've been professionally developing for the past decade and have many years writing code as a hobby previously. I have full stack experience including developing mobile apps with React Native.

My name is Alexander Madani, and I am the developer of a simple Note Taking Application for Android called: EZ Notes
My passion is IT (Microsoft Windows) Upgrading Hard Drives, RAM, etc... and also cloning storage devices as part of migration to other storage medium. I also do backup and recovery (like for Disaster Recovery purposes).
I am always eager to learn more about emerging and highly useful products in the IT for modern organization.

Thank you.
Just to say hello to everyone = I am a gaming veteran from 90s, currently working on PWA/TWA apps, started to learn electron framework and a bit of Kotlin (just to run PWA inside Android app), eager to learn more about Docker and Red language (anyone?).
Hi Community,
my name is yassine, iam a freelance DevOps and management consultant across Europe(DE,AT,CH,NL,FR) and NA(MA),iam keen to a rich exchange with other community members and synergies to grow professional skills.
I started with C, and went back to coding 6502 later I was fascinated with yahoo chat applet so hard that I learned Java and then Java left the front end development in favor of back ends which I was attracted to so started coding J2EE servlets using tomcat, jetty and finally I felt confident enough so I started coding EJBs in Jboss. Ok admitted EJBs are pain in ***.
I discovered python while working with embedded systems and then Sun got squired by #redgiantmoneymakingmachine so I started working with Django, flask.
Currently I like the ideas and concepts behind microservices and I like the challenges associated with the transition and I do love assisting achieving that.
Thanks & Regards
Yassine Aka Ely
Welcome to DEV!
Hey all! My name is Vern and I am the CEO of a tech startup in Berkeley, CA. I've been a coder since I was flipping switches on a PDP8 in the sub-basement of the Tech building at Northwestern University. As an engineer, I would consider myself a database expert.
About three years ago I needed to move back to engineering, and it's been quite a journey for me. I've seen the arc of the industry since the 1980's, and it is better than ever for developers. We have an infinite landscape of new technologies that really matter to businesses and they need developers to make them work! Remote work is a dream come true for many people. Underrepresented populations are making themselves heard, which is making a richer and more diverse world of developers.
Lately, I've been on quite the Go kick, and at taxnexus.net we have been converting our entire codebase to a set of Go microservices.
I joined this forum to see if I can offer any of my sage advice to problem, post a tidbit of arcane knowledge, or maybe find a developer who wants to work for Taxnexus!

Hello all! I'm a web developer currently working on a website that collects and answers (and helps us analyze) students questions from all over India. My research group in Tata Institute of Fundamental Research is trying to study curiosity among school children. It is an open source project. We're also working with many education groups and a major NGO to help us out. Once the website is up, I would like to explore Natural Language Processing and Data Analysis to study the data. Long time lurker, finally making the plunge!

Hey everyone. I am a developer, primarily in Ruby, since 2011. I am here because I like simplicity and I have read some cool articles about the making of this site and I have been posts here for nearly a year.
I hope to write some blog posts about things I have learned. In the meanwhile here is my old blog with dumb Ruby tricks: kwstannard.blogspot.com/
Greetings earthlings, is it okay to simply share interesting developer posts and pages with a summary and link or is there an import feature like medium has to recreate my post or page?
Thanks, I look forward to sharing.

Hi all, I've been in IT for over 40years, but am still a geek. Right now, developing a IoT cloud platform for remote sensors.
Multi-threaded Python script to aggregate data from various sources into a NoSQL MongoDB, then NodeJS/Express API to display in a browser. Working with 3rd-party API from Google, Here and UK MetOffice. Everything runs securely behind nginx in Docker containers on VPS in Paris & Amsterdam.
My big (huge) issue is UX as I am just a bodging engineer, more comfortable with a command line. Having just read a few posts, I am really keen to dive in deeper - thanks for all the content!
Hello there, I am Vic, a professional blogger, recently I have started writing my blog about Printable Calendars as they are a great source of time management. Ever since I have started using printable calendars there's a drastic change in my lifestyle and now I am more organized than ever before. You might have noticed that over-penetration of technologies in our life have started ruined us in so many ways, though I do not totally oppose the technology sometimes being rooted with some small basic things keep us more grounded.
Hi everyone, I'm currently an intern at Stutern Nigeria Limited where I'm undergoing training on software engineering, I hope to learn from this platform and build myself more with the knowledge it has to offer.
I work with a 73 year old developer, who is a piss poor coder.
His code lacks functional structure, business rules, uses in line SQL,
gets mad at me for using Stored Procedure, sloppy code alignment,
oversize functions where you look at the code and have no idea what's going,
and most of all, is just an all around stubborn, arrogant, close minded {censored} human. The day he admits he did something wrong is the day the Statue of Liberty sits down. He is at the company because of nepotism. Any other company would get rid of him. I capitulate to his behavior because I have no choice.
Now, go code. Picasso: What we learn to do, we learn by doing.
Hi everyone! I am Java Developer and routinely blog at Codetab. Recently, I have released a Heavy Duty Web Scraper software developed in Java Scoopi.
In my previous avatar, I was a Data Centre Admin of a mid sized bank in India, with rich experience in areas such as enterprise level SAN with 3-way Disaster Recovery setup, network management (around 800 locations; it was crazy as managing a bunch of cats), roll-out and customization of banking related software and also open source solutions. Took early retirement, and now I spend time contributing to open source ecosystem!
I look forward to contribute and also learn new things here.

Hey everyone! I am Sergii. And I'm happy to join! Decided that time had come to become part of such a great community.
I am a 'switcher' (like some of you), have a master degree in international economics and foreign trade and some auditor/economist background. But, decided to switch into front-end more than 5 years ago by self-teaching and have not a single regret about that. :D
Freelancing for almost 4 years. Enjoying to help great people to build the product they needed (starting from static websites, platform websites to SPAs on Vue and React). Code author of trumpdonald.org (if you heard about it).
For a long period of time, I was mostly a reader/listener. But, now I think I've grown enough 'dev muscles' and 'experience fat' to share thoughts with you and other people. :D
From Ukraine, living in Poland, aiming to move to Sweden.

Hi all,
My name is Ash and I'm a full-stack web developer (leaning more towards frontend these days) based in Boston, MA. I'm a bootcamp grad (yay General Assembly!) who transitioned to web development 3 years ago after 10 years in the environmental nonprofit world.
In the tech world I'm particularly passionate about making the tech industry more welcoming and accessible to LGBTQ folks (I'm queer/trans/non-binary), people of color, working class people, people with disabilities, and other marginalized groups. I have also recently been learning about and building skills in web accessibility so the wonder of the world wide web can really be available for everyone. I'm really excited to use my skills as a developer to support people doing work with a social mission.
Outside of tech I love community organizing for social justice, growing veggies, fruits, and flowers, and supporting people in worker-cooperatives.
I'm looking forward to conversations on here about web accessibility, React, GraphQL, Redux, Javascript, freelancing, and so much more. Would love to connect with other folks who share my passions!
<3 Ash

Hi there.
My name is Josef, developer for about 2 years now, about 1 year full time.
I'm currently working for diva-e, a software agency, in Berlin.
I'm coming mostly from Java and web, but am running away with go now <3.
I love to constantly learn new things and teach people about what I've learned.
Usually that's git, docker, terraform, cloud, K8s.
I'm fascinated about language, OS and hardware internals and aspects of distributed systems.
Security, performance, automation, testing, ops, chaos engineering...
Since I boast only 2 years of experience, I'm a little shy to start writing articles myself.
I've started to get active on reddit, help people and discuss.
But I'm here to get out there more into the community, connect, get inspired and eventually publish some first posts myself. Maybe find some OSS projects to contribute to.
Looking forward
Hello everyone! 👋
I'm a recent graduate from an online bootcamp. It was a fun and eye-opening ride, leaving me with more questions than I felt I had answers, which is exciting in its outright, but also terrifying at the same time.
I love to learn things, and I love to explore while doing it. I like reading blogs, but I don't like the idea of writing them. However, its a great way to learn so I'm working on getting over it.
I look forward to reading your thoughts and sharing my own!
I am a beginner, joined to participate and get help! And to consolidate my programming skills.
Welcome to the dev.to community! thanks for commenting :)

Hey everyone, I am a developer in Austin, TX. I love functional programming – most of my experience has been with Scala and Clojure, but I'm also interested in Elixir – and I've recently been working a lot with Kubernetes, which has also gotten me interested in the Go language. I've worked in companies big and small and I take a very creative approach to my work. I am more of an intuitive person, which many developers are not. I enjoy writing and often think of programming as a means of creative expression. I am passionate about privacy, free speech, and interested in talking to others with similar interests. I'm excited to try out this platform as a way of meeting other developers.

Hi everyone! I'm Paolo, fullstack web developer from Modena, Italy. I regularly read dev.to and finally I decided to join the community.
I'm working for 2 years, but I think I started growing as a programmer only in these last months. My goals, for now, are about learning git and react.
Actually at my office I work with:
Unluckly, it's hard to introduce new technologies at work beacause there's not enough money and time, so the best I can do for myself is to study at home in my freetime.
If you have any questions about me feel free to ask!
Howzit! My name is Ian, a .NET developer from Cape Town, South Africa. In August 2018 I launched an open source project called SketchIt, and would love for the project to gain some momentum and grow into a (fun) tool that would benefit a community interested in programming. The idea behind SketchIt was heavily inspired by the Processing open source project (and watching many of Daniel Shiffman's videos), but aimed at .NET (C#) developers.
I hope to get some developers interested in the project through the DEV community. Apart from wanting it to be a beneficial tool in learning to code or creating creative projects with, I would love for people to become involved in the development of SketchIt.
So, that's my introduction. Hope to post something useful soon.

Hi Everyone, Basically I am a senior software engineer. To tell about myself, computers have always been a fascination to me right from my childhood days and learning programming was the one of the most interesting things that happened to me.
Though my career is now moving towards management than development I wanted to keep in touch with coding, standards and update myself with the modern practices of development. That's the main reason which brought me to this community.
I am looking forward to learn a lot from everyone here.
Hi everybody! I’m transitioning my career from radio broadcast systems to web development and am happy to now be in a Java coding boot camp growing my skills. I studied Computer Science a few years ago and mainly worked with Python. I had not liked Java back then, but I find myself now really enjoying getting reacquainted and working with it again. I think working on the web back end will suit me better as I’m more of a system administrator than a designer but I’m still exploring what the various roles entail.
I signed up to join this community after seeing many great DEV articles on twitter. I hadn’t planned on writing myself but it’s good to know that the opportunity is there. I may ask some questions though. I look forward to learning from all of you.
Aside from programming, I love music and the arts.
Hi everyone! I'm currently the only one in the IT department of the company in which I work. So I have to manage pretty much everything from our servers to develop new tools for our intranet to fixing the hardware of old windows pcs (some of them still had floppy disks!). But to be honest, what I really like to do is coding and learning new technologies.
So here I am :)

I have been using this platform all the time when I was stuck on some projects, while I was lost my career or needed some guidance. This community has helped me a lot in overcoming the challenges that I encounter every day. I just started my blog to document and share my thoughts about new concepts, philosophies, problems, and tools that I encounter every day so that those who encounter the same problem and challenge can benefit from it. I am very grateful to have this platform and ready to help and contribute and learn from you all! Please don't feel free to reach out, and say hi :)

Hello Everyone!
I'm currently beginning to transition myself as a Python / Django Developer and I am reader enthusiast. I am excited to be here to read and at the same time contribute my little to big experiences as I step into the real world of Development.
Hi all! 👋
I'm a tech leader at PerimeterX, where we fight the good fight against nasty bots on a daily basis!
My daily routines are usually around backend (NodeJS, C, Lua, TCL and whatnot) but I also like to get my hands dirty with frontend (usually React). Besides working with bots I love to work with IoT and home automation and thanks to Raspberry Pi and Arduino I get to automate my house quite a bit.
I come from a Microsoft stack background, focusing on Silverlight and SharePoint development (and I even published two books on these subjects) and while i havent had the chance to work with .net in the last few years, lately I slowly started writing some .Net Core again ✌️
Lastly, I try to blog as much as I can about stuff I work with, and in the little free time i have left i try to relive my glory days as a hard-core gamer (currently on Playstation 4, Switch and Oculus) 🎮
I'm excited to be here and contribute in my areas of expertise but i mostly looking forward to learn from all of you!

Hello! I've been solving programming problems for almost 3 years now. So far I wrote a C# game called "Blaze" and published it on the Android App Store. however, I've been working with e-commerce businesses for half a year, my passion for game development, and web applications never stilled. As technology evolves and there is more information that you need to learn, don't feel too over whelmed to cloud your focus so you may accomplish what you started with ease of mind.
Great to be here. I want to learn and contribute.

Hello community.
I'm Zohar and I've been working as a developer for the past two decades.
I've started working as a mobile web developer back when the mobile web was based on WAP and WML - later started working as a web developer (this time for "normal" browsers), and then moved on to .Net, writing services and Winforms applications, got stuck there for too much time, but for the past two years or so been working with WFP, and lately .Net Core.
Most of the work I do is data driven, so I have a vast experience with databases. Mainly SQL Server, but I have also did a few projects with Oracle, MySql and even MS-Access back in the day. In the last year or so I've also been working with MongoDb.
I'm an active member on Stackoverflow for almost 6 years now, and I'm here thanks to the little black button on Stackoverflow share popup that reads "dev".
Hopefully, I'll be able to contribute some of my knowledge here and learn from you guys.
Oh, and I've just started a blog called What the # do I know? - Hopefully, I'll add some more content to it on a regular basis.
Hi all! I'm Charles and I am just a simple web developer who uses Vue. Been a lurker around these parts but looking to be more social.
Hello,
I'm a full stack JavaScript student on Treehouse (doing the Techdegree). I work full time as a nursing assistant and have a bachelor's in health science. I was previously on track to be a healthcare practitioner, but am making the switch into tech. I haven't been writing about my programming journey or talking to/networking with other devs so I thought this could be a great place to do both. I love problem solving, helping people, and getting creative with design.
