[Tina]

Hi everyone! I'm a self-taught work-in-progress developer and I can't believe I just discovered this place just yesterday! I'm really excited to connect with and learn from like-minded people who are going through some of the same technical challenges that I'm facing on new projects.

[builderfox]

Hi

[gliterbaybe]

Wow. You are welcome. I am also learning some courses as well

[Nicholas Karimi]

Interested Python Web Developer. I am currently taking online course on Python and my intention is to learn python for web and automation purposes. I have completed the automate the boring stuff and Python crash course books, learning flask by writing simple apps. I trust the journey I began and I hope to get better in python programming.
Any recommendations on the course or books to read after the aforementioned or even mentorship, will be highly appreciated.

[Lautaro Lobo]

Welcome buddy!

Hey those are really good books, congrats for reading them.

There are some good courses on Python for Data Science and Machine Learning in Edx, or Coursera, from MIT, Harvard, IBM and probably some others. I really recommend going through one of those :)

[Nicholas Karimi]

Thank you. I will definitely check them out.

[Frank Font]

None of it is the boring stuff when you discover how significant it is to the overall learning and growth process. Enjoy the journey is the best advice sometimes. And programming mastery a worthwhile journey! :)

[Adolfo Moyano]

Welcome Nicholas! i use Python for automation and i can tell you that it's one of my favorite languages, keep up the good work!

[Nicholas Karimi]

Thank you. Means alot to get such a motivation.

[Jonathan Yombo Bosemwa Lijerbul LJOBOY]

Hi !

[Nilex]

Welcome Nicholas

[Francis Stokes]

Hi I'm Francis 👋

I signed up because I've heard really great things about this community! I'm software developer from England but living in the Netherlands. Professionally I write JS, but enjoy all kinds of development. Looking forward to reading and writing some cool stuff here.

[James Baldwin]

Welcome! Excited to see what you write about!

[Nilex]

Welcome brother

[Chris Achard]

Hi Francis - Welcome!

Yes, I love this community - I think it's great! Any travel tips if I were to visit the Netherlands? It's always been on my list of neat places I'd like to go :)

[Francis Stokes]

I live in Rotterdam, which quite a lot of people visiting overlook. It's a really cool place, by far the most modern looking Dutch city - and you can get here in ~35 minutes using readily available public transport.

[Chris Achard]

Awesome, I'll check it out - thanks!

[Don Hamilton III]

I honestly don't know how I wasn't a member here already. I'm pretty sure I'm reading something from at least one someone here every day. But anyway...

[Bianca W]

[Helen Anderson]

Welcome to Dev Don! 👋🏻

[Wasabi Cheetah]

Hi >'n.n'<

[Lautaro Lobo]

Welcome Don!

[Alabi Muhydeen Olaniyi]

I'll like to know more about programming as I am an aspiring full stack developer with little knowledge of HTML, CSS and Javascript.

[ajaystxus]

Keep at it! Do personal projects! And never stop learning! That's what helped get me into graduate school. Keep up the progress!

[Lautaro Lobo]

Cool! Welcome! You should check out FreeCodeCamp ;) really helped me to understand HTML, CSS and responsiveness. Also, they have JavaScript.

[Alexander Bourlotos]

YES this. I reset my progress on freeCodeCamp recently and just got through all of HTML and CSS again. It's mostly review but it's a great place to interactively learn and the projects are challenging!

[Alabi Muhydeen Olaniyi]

Thank you Laotaro Jordan. I'll try that

[Frank Font]

Learn by doing! Join or start an open source project in addition to reading. :)

[Alexander Bourlotos]

hacktoberfest was a great way for me to get better with github. I use git at work but finding easier projects to contribute to and learning how to fork, branch, push, and Pull Request was great for me. I would definitely look around for easier open source projects to contribute to.

[Chris Achard]

Hi Diego! What type of data science are you most interested in?

[Diego Gallovich]

Hello Chris! I've been looking into starting off working with financial data. To get myself comfortable with data science, I enlisted in the Data Science Path from CodeAcademy. After finishing that, I wanted to look into analyzing and visualizing financial data with python. Both artificial intelligence and machine learning interest, I will see where it takes me.w

[Chris Achard]

Very neat! I hadn't seen the CodeAcademy Data Science path before - I'll have to take a look, thanks!

[Diego Gallovich]

I got you bro... enjoy!

[Sam]

Hello dev.to community! My name is Sam and I am currently a full-stack student. I want to engulf myself in the dev community to better understand everything and how to write better code. I look forward to engaging with people that have experience and knowledge.

[Peter Kim Frank]

Welcome, Sam!

[Lorens]

I come learning to code I just finished learning HTML and I came here because Google showed me some articles on web development developers not letting me here so why not sign up thanks Google keeps sending me and sign up here I hope to continue in my journey to learn different languages and such so that is why I took the step.

[Huw Fulcher]

Hi all! I'm a Data Scientist working for the Office for National Statistics in the UK although I'm in the middle of transferring to a different company. Main interest is in how we communicate Data Science to others in organisations in a way that helps them understand its business implications.

[Rachael Tatman]

That's an awesome focus! I've personally found that many new data scientists underestimate the importance and difficulty of getting stakeholder by-in.

[Huw Fulcher]

Thanks! Yes completely agree, there’s a real gap in explaining the “why” and not just the “how”.
