Whale High-Low There!
Wandering the web and found this great community and the content found here. Thought it would be great to stick around, learn a few things and who knows, maybe do a bit of sharing as well!
Living the life of a Database Developer and reaching to new heights to become more valuable to those around me.
Welcome! Come check out the #sql and #database tags for all things Database Dev.
Let me know if you need any help getting started :D
Thanks Helen! i will certainly go check that out :)
Its nice having a database developer here. Welcome.
Really nice comment, man.
Hello !

Same here, do you put your stuff on codepen or somewhere else maybe?
Well I use GitHub if that's what you're talking about? Any cool projects/ideas you want to discuss?
hi
Welcome Chintan. I'M new here and hope learning will be great
Hi!
I'm in the same situation ! Welcome! π
Hey! Been actively stalking DEV content for a while, figured I'd finally join the community.
Currently working as a freelance ui/ux designer, but my passion is in front-end development. I have a BFA in web design & new media, but continuing on with this learning journey all the same.
Hoping I can contribute to this fabulous community!
Hello, welcome to the community!
Hi Jessica! Welcome to DEV!
I'm a big fan of Van dyk
Welcome to DEV. Do you have anything that you plan on posting soon?
Hey :)
Glad to join this community. Trying to learn C# for starters through Unity, and some courses on Pluralsight. I have been reading some articles here for several months. But never thought of joining, but now I thought that it was time I guess. I think maybe Hacktoberfest could be the reason for it as well. Even though I'm not sure if I will contribute anywhere, cause I'm not even close being proficient even at beginner level.I'll see what I can do. But not to ramble too much, I'm looking forward to being here.
Glad you decided to join! Welcome to DEV :)
Thank you :)
you could try with university of Michigan course on development of games in unity pretty good course in coursera.com.
Bookmarked it :)
Hello, everyone! Nice to meet you! Iβm hypercreative and love to build/make/develop stuff. Unfortunately, I have more ideas than I have time to create. Iβm an entrepreneur with diverse knowledge who provides remote and/or on-site support on computers (all platforms), smartphones/tablets, and wireless/networking, as well as audio/video and home automation systems. On a personal level, Iβm passionate about music, technology, home theater, and home automation. My development experience is mostly in scripting languages (Windows shell scripting, Autohotkey, some BASH scripting) and web development (though my webdev knowledge is out of date and I struggle with the latest technologies). I discovered this community when something I was searching for returned a hit on one of the βexplain it like Iβm 5β posts. Brilliant idea! I look forward to learning from you all!
Haha, it is nice to meet you. I am a big fan of home therater.
"I have more ideas than I have time to create" hey can you give me some of those ideas?
Welcome to DEV Don! What type of music do you like?
Hey, Chris! Thanks for the welcome! I have super diverse musical tastes. Way easier to say what I DONβT like which is metal, rap/hip-hop, EDM, and soulless pop from every boy-band and teeny-gurl ever. (And even with those genres, there are some exceptions!) My favorite genre is R&B - I LOVE funk, soul, and Motown... I also LOVE βThe Great American Songbookβ whether its being performed by Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Dean Martin or more contemporary artists like Michael BublΓ© or Elton John. Iβm a songwriter, myself, and most of the stuff I write is either standards or R&B. I like almost all rock and its many subgenres - especially partial to punk/post-punk and rockabilly... not real big on pop - old 50s βlollipop, lollipopβ crap makes me want to puke... I listen to a lot LOT of jazz - especially partial to classics from Duke Ellington, Count Basie, and anything and everything that Louis Armstrong ever did. Likewise the standards/βlove songsβ... Bill Evans, Ben Webster, Miles, Bird, Coltrane... older stuff, too - Bix, Pete Fountain, Glenn Miller... Thereβs a number of contemporary guys that knock my socks off, too - Wynton Marsalis, Harry Connick, Jr, Trombone Shorty... Mike Cottone isnβt well-known but heβs got some extraordinary chops. If you like Jazz, search for him in YouTube and listen to When Sonny Gets Blue. Stops me dead in my tracks every time. I love most of the stuff from the Swing Revival of the β90s but Iβm particularly enamored with Brian Setzer whom I firmly believe is the greatest living guitarist. Iβm a big fan of roots music, as well - blues, folk, bluegrass, country - old stuff or contemporary... HUGE fan of Kebβ Moβ. I enjoy most of the singer-songwriter stuff, too- from Paul Simon to Shawn Mullins, Leonard Cohen to Amos Lee... I like a lot of World Music, too including Latin Jazz, most African Music, Afro-Cuban Jazz, most Brazilian music, almost anything French, Zydeco, and I especially love reggae in all its forms. I love when new artists take a twist on classics - like Lake Street Diveβs version of I Want You Back. Then thereβs the experimental stuff that defies classification- Tom Waits, the David Byrne/Brian Zeno collaborations. I thoroughly enjoy Danny Elfmanβs sound tracks and musical scores (likewise Mark Knopfler). And though itβs almost an afterthought, I do occasionally enjoy classical music, as well (though Iβve never really acquired a taste for opera). I could go on and on. I have dozens of artists in my βTop 10β list! Hahaha! Thereβs ALWAYS music playing at my house or in my car. I have an Emby media server with a few thousand albums at the ready - but Iβm equally likely to tell Alexa to play something on Pandora or Spotify. (She sends it over to my main audio system via Bluetooth which sounds pretty good but but honestly, Iβll listen to music through my iPhone speaker if thatβs my only option at the moment.) Right now Iβm listening to Based On A True Story by Fat Freddyβs Drop.
You must be a music guy to ask me that. What are your tastes?
Wow! That's quite the list - I love how you talk about music :) Those are a bunch of great songs/artists/genres.
I tend to get on certain kicks for awhile... right now I'm actually listening to a bunch of instrumental movie soundtracks; I find they're really good for coding to :) Movies like Interstellar, Lord of the Rings, Star Wars... "big" movies with big soundtracks are great.
Another kind of weird thing I like listening to is acapella or acoustic covers of a bunch of different songs/genres. I like searching youtube for them and finding everyone's different interpretations.
So maybe not the answer you were quite looking for :) And next month it will probably be something different!
Cool stuff, brother! I wasnβt looking for any kind of answer in particular. Itβs always great to find a fellow music lover and talk about what theyβre into. I usually come away with some great new stuff to check out and that often leads me to some new faves... I am very enthusiastic about music. Frankly, itβs like a drug for me. I can lift myself out of a depressed mood (Iβve often said, βAl Green is my antidepressant.β), motivate myself to clean a really messy house (I actually have a Spotify playlist called, βClean the Fβ-ing House, Donnie!β) or chill myself out when my anxiety or stress level is getting the better of me... I totally agree about movie soundtracks. I think John Williams is the Beethoven of our time (And Danny Elfman the Mozart)... As a vocalist with a pretty good (Dean Martin-esque) crooning voice, I guess I kinda take vocals for granted. It takes someone really extraordinary (e.g. Bobby McFerrin) to get me really excited about a capella music (although I do occasionally enjoy it - especially if thereβs a gospel flair to it as with Take 6) but I, too, listen to a lot of instrumental music when Iβm doing something (... coding ...) that requires a lot of concentration. The Mermen put out an album close to 20 years ago called The Amazing California Health and Happiness Road Show that really gets me and keeps me in the zone - even though itβs atypically energetic for my usual coding tastes... (Bill Evans, Red Garland, Oscar Peterson, and Gene Ellis always seems more conducive to learning - and these days, most of my coding is wrapped in learning new stuff.) I need to sign off for today - Iβve got tickets to see Smokey Robinson tonight and Iβm STOKED!!! Without Smokey, there would have been no Motown...
Yeah, music for cleaning the house is great π
Enjoy Smokey Robinson!
It told me to post here.
π ... it worked I guess :)
You nailed it!
Hello there.
I'm glad that I just recently discovered this community.
I'm someone who's just finished taking a good long look at the core concepts of vanilla JavaScript. And I'm looking to start working on a framework.
Hoping to get the support I need and willing to be of help if there's ever a time.
So yea. I'm here.
Welcome to DEV Ameer! What framework do you hope to learn?
I'm excited to get started with React .
Although I do feel a little intimidated by it.
You know. Beginner jitters.
Yep! My biggest piece of advice is to start by just playing around :) Make a few small, throw away projects, and you'll learn a ton! (without all the weight of making a "real" project). Good luck!
Thanks a lot for the advice Chris. I'll work on it.π
Welcome!
Good luck to you Ameer!
Hi buddies .
Sometimes my colleagues call me "Cindy" because of my hair colour... nevertheless even if I am not coming from engineering school, I've always been found of technology, computer science... and worked with developers ;-) .
As an Evangelist and Community Manager, I am diving even more into dev world and I really hope my contributions, my experience will be helpful!
Happy to join the community!
Hi Cindy :)
Good luck as you dive deeper into the dev world! Glad you've joined
Thanks Chris !

Hello Everyone! I'm really excited to join Dev community. I have been reading DEV contents for so long and learned a lot from all. Love to learn and share what I have.
Now I'm learning React and redux and would be great if you all help me on this.
Thanks in advance. I will try contribute and write a content in Dev soon.
Awesome that you decided to join :) React and Redux are my bread and butter for apps! Let me know if you need help :)
Thanks a lot. Sure I will reach you for any help and I already love all your crash course. :)
Heya everyone! I'm a new grad computer engineer and junior java developer. I love to code, research and learn new things! I just found out about DEV today after completing hacktoberfest 2019 and it looks like a cool community :) Hope to be around more to learn and try to contribute :)
Welcome to DEV! And awesome job completing hacktoberfest :)
Thanks chris! :)
Hi all, am new here. Began my journey into coding in 1994 but stopped in 2001. This year I was told about an IT/Tech company hiring in my area. Well, I didn't make it in and the company referred me to Career Karma. That's where I learned about code bootcamps. Instead of following the pack, I choose to go self taught. I ultimately am aspiring to become a Full Stack Developer.
It's great that you're picking up coding again! Self-taught learning is a great way to go since there are so many good resources online. I wish you all the best :)
Hi, I am excited to be a part of this community and I am looking forward to exchanging contributions within the community.
Welcome to the community !
Welcome! Glad to have you as part of the community :)
Hello there!
I've recently quit my (rather boring) job to catch up with modern frontend development. Decided to sign up here to sometimes click the heart icon and maybe drop a comment or two.
I also hope to meet some friendly people here to chat about techs and life in general :)
Hello Anton! Welcome to DEV :) Quitting a job can be scary - good luck learning modern frontend dev!
Thank you Chris :)
Hello! I'm glad to be here! I've been coming to this website for awhile now and creating an account was long overdue. I love the sense of community here.
