Helloo i m Fresher & i want to learn JAVA :) #beginners
your welcome..
Hey, I am Andrew and I am curently working on an education changing project. The problem is I am young and i do not have dedicated people to work with . Can someone help me with easy things ? Have a nice day :)
Hello Andrew. I suggest you make a post and describe in detail what you would like help with.
Donβt forget to include what languages and scripting you are using so that people with the proper skill set can respond.
Good luck with your project.
Greetings from Belgium!
Greetings from North Carolina.
This website was recommended by a friend and I will be contributing some articles on remote work, QE and tech support.
I have been around for a while and tinkered with lots of technologies and frameworks. My current dev interest is Flask and Python but I am not religious about any of it... :)
Hi Joe, Nice to meet you!
I came by recommendation too hahaha
Looks like I'm the only one without basic tech or Dev knowledge here
Don't worry most of us just started too, Good Luck on your journey.
Nice to meet you Joe! I could also use some more reading on remote work.
Hi, thought I'd introduce myself. I'm a 30 year old full stack developer at a PR agency in San Diego. I've been writing code for fun since I was in early elementary school and got hired as a web developer right out of high school.
My dream is to work at Google or Netflix some day, so I'm taking steps to become the absolute best software engineer I can be. A lot of the articles here seem like they could be useful, so here I am :)
You'll get there!
Software engineering is incredibly fascinating to me, and is something I like to read about. Maybe one day I'll start heading that route.
I wish you the best of luck with your career, and hopefully you get your dream job soon!
That's so awesome, and sounds like you have great dissipline and passion.
I hope your dreams come true. ππΏ
34YO Software developer / DevOps working on a small Mexican company that I co-founded 10 years ago. I work almost exclusively with Python and Django.
Mostly interested in learning and making contacts.
How is the company called?

Any contribution I can make.

How I arrived here is simple enough I was in the deepest Africa, an out of work person from Berkeley told me about a silicone chip with legs like a a centipede outlined in the sand causing big redundancy problems in the United States. In 1975 I set off to investigate I was on the road a long time before reaching SW UK with some tools reparing HDD, opened a computer repair shop 1984 first one south of Bristol, slowly I've been legging along ever since, that's how I am here from one jungle into the digital one without a compass. Where the feck are we?
T.I IS A VERY CRAZY WORLD, welcome on board!
I find your story really cool. Thanks for sharing it! :)
Hello, I found about Dev.to from one of articles on Qiita (a programmer community for Japanese speakers) talking about how fast Dev.to is. It seems like the community here is pretty cool. I am excited to be a part of it.
Hello all you more experienced young people. I have studied programming off(0) && on (1) since I was very young (age > 50). I continue to study and practice everyday. While I am mostly unpublished, I love the constant learning, failing, trying, humility, and rebirth. Development reminds me of running a marathon up a mountain: Not a single step, not a small sprint, or a large stumble or fall, but always pushing forward. Development is learning to think and organize our thoughts and intentions into the material universe, an act of creation. It is about building order and beauty while the chaos monsters fight viciously to burn our time and devour us whole.
My goals are:

Hey Joseph! Code is challenging but what matters is you like doing it!
Hello and welcome to DEV!
What's up everyone!! Glad to be part of the community
Welcome to DEV Buddy π
I see you worked on many projects and hope you could share problems you faced :)
Thank you! :) I'm planning on sharing my experiences here and hopefully they'll prove helpful to someone
Welcome to DEV
Welcome, Buddy!
Hello there everyone!! I'm Roy from the Netherlands, so yeah I have that disgusting accentπ I'm actually still a student, and i think being a developer is super fun. At least, so farπ After this study I want to learn Cyber Security. And i'm here because at school I cant learn, teachers cant teach and iv'e got concentration problems. When I get home I take my laptop and after 4-5 hours sometimes i take a breakππ Funny fact: I hate sleeping. i know it sounds weird but think about all the things you can do in that time. I think that rn I am about 48 hour awake and yea you see i still got energyπ½
anyway i wish all of you a nice day im gonna figure my homework out(03:20AM hereπ )
p.s at this moment I only do webdevelopment(html, css, js, php, "mysql"), starting to learn it so in a few months ill add something.
Welcome Roy!
thanks!
Welcome to dev ;)
Hello everybody!!
I am Exel a live learning developer for ever. I hope we could be friends anyway!
I've got here 'cause I am developing a react native app, but I got a bug that it's been imposible to find. Because it happens only when apk is build. =(
And I don't know what to do else to put some log to a database via fetch but is difficult make a rapid trace. I got build every time and it takes too long.
Well I hope anybody has a suggestion!
Thanks.
Hey everyone, I'm Christina from Germany and I just started learning how to code in December :) #codenewbie I just graduated with a MA in History but realised towards the end of it that that's not at all what I'm passionate about. I kept reading articles about tech and career changers and that's how I became inspired to try and make the change myself!
Welcome to the platform, Christina! Hope you enjoy and, as always, I wish you luck on your coding journey. While I got into tech because I was looking for a career change, interacting with the community really gave me a boost of confidence and was just a lot of fun. You realize that there are all kinds of people from all sorts of backgrounds in the industry, which is really comforting to know if you're coming from a non-CS background.

Hello to the people of this community, from Italy here , since i quit my previous job (i used to be a labour/cleaner) i have started learning web development, it's been 6 months and i'm not giving up (i never will) the hope is to get a job in the next six months. How's the journey going for you?. In my free time i'm a trail runner. I'm here because of real tough candy :)
Hello there!
I started my dev journey 4 months ago and I just started a Software Engineering bootcamp.
I live in the SF Bay Area.
My goal is to finally find a job where my brain is usefully used, having challenges everyday, and work for a company with good people (is it really too much to ask? π ).
I feel like I will be more interested in Back End dev, but Iβm just at the beginning of my journey so weβll see!
And finally I have the secret goal to prove the world Iβm a super 35 yo talented bad-a** mom who can do everything. πͺ
Oh, and Iβm French. It explains the misspelling and other weird syntax in my messages π

Hello Everyone!
I am Claire, so glad to be here.
I am currently in professional transition from Finance to Web dev and learning JS and Python.

Hello, I'm a developer and GIS professional from NZ. I mainly work with Python, JS (React + React-native), Node, SQL, and bring it all together with spatial data.
After all, 80% of data these days has some kind of spatial component (according to some academics).
I keep coming across dev.to articles so thought I'd get involved.
Hey there! I don't know where to begin. Old dog trying to learn new tricks? ;)
I'm a marketer (please don't hold this against me! I specialize in ethnographic research and content strategy and hate interruptions and BS ads!) who also does frontend development. I've been working in Wordpress for years (with some Drupal a bunch of years ago), but I'm finding limits while I'm developing our own tools, so I want to get better at this stuff. I also run a staff of 8, so I get pretty busy and this looks like an amazing community where I can bring my dumb questions to get better answers.
That's it. Oh...and I am a pug lover and my greatest achievement was doing a cross-country karaoke roadtrip to promote my book in 2009. Sometimes I lie awake at night and wonder if I can ever top that experience. :)
I am a Wordpress web designer, Working on Fiverr for last year. But From a couple of months, I have started learning code, like Html CSS, bootstrap, js, jquery, PHP , laravel
Please Suggest me for became a good and modern web developer in 2020
Kia Ora All!
I work remotely from Nelson, New Zealand.
I've been a software developer for almost 20 years and full stack web developer for 8, the last 4 of which have been freelance - I find all those numbers a little hard to believe!
Background in .NET and FORTRAN, but now spend most of my day in the JS world.
Here to learn and maybe meet some other remote devs in/near Nelson!?
When I'm not coding I'm out exploring this beautiful country by feet, bike or paddle
Hi guys !!! I'm known as 'Kah', a JS enthusiast (besides I used to program in C#, Java, Grails, Golang). Also, a big cat lover. I have 4 of them: Vlad (a white male, the oldest), Mina (a rescued female with some issues), and Kali and Cinza, sisters, and very different from each other.
I hope I can contribute to this community...
Hello everyone! Glad to finally join this great community! I work with JavaScript using React @ mega.nz in New Zealand!

Hello!

Recently got into Flatirons Immersive Bootcamp in Seattle. Im excited to get a change of scenery because im originally from Southern Cali.
Hi there!
Or, if you prefer, here is some JavaScript using prime numbers (and some trickery) to generate a greeting for you all:
I'm a freelance developer from South Africa and look forward to spending some time on dev.to.

Hello Jehiel !!
Salutation Everyone! I'm Eric, a comic book artist disguised as a graphic designer. In my week-long search to find information and resources to aid me in my nascent programmers' journey, I stumbled upon this site! I hope to not be an uber pest, but I plan to ask a bunch of questions as I learn as much as I can!

Hi Jeff, I'm Katie, one of the basic moderators here on DEV.
I want to welcome you to the DEV community and let you know that you'll find lots of help and support here for all your coding needs.
Don't hesitate to ask questions or contribute new ideas.
Got invited here by stranger dev at conference yesterday at Swetugg 2020. This place seems cool, a place where I would like to dig myself into.

I wish I found this community earlier! So glad to be here.
To introduce myself, I just graduated from Ohio State with a degree in physics. While in school, I started a company called Helm (joinhelm.com). I'm working there full time now as a web developer and data geek. We're trying to build a community where developers showcase the cool side projects they build, so I can't wait to get involved in this community as well.
One of my hobbies is doing tableau & python data analytics on Spotify music data. I've been learning a ton because I'm so interested in the dataset! :)
Welcome!!
Hi all!
I am Alex, almost 40, married, have two amazing daughters and a dog called rakete (rocket). My software programming experiance started all the way back in 86 on my C128. Later I went on to a 386 and a 486. In 2000 i started my apprenticeship to become a software engineer, where I found a third of my calling: complex systems. Soon after my apprenticeship I was appointed the lead of the Team - during the next 17 years followed a lot challenging but exciting time in some of the major platforms in Germany. I have let over 500 people, been to the cloud, introduced agile, had to let people go (an experience i do not like to repeat) and made a lot experiments! I am sooo thankful of all that happened and the possibility to learn.
After 10 years of struggle with command & control environments, i founded my own company, where we help other nerds like myself to succeed.
My glass is mostly half-full, through this it is more simple to master the occasional quests life has to offer, I am in the pursuit of happiness, course it cannot be brought with money nor forced by power. First I seek to understand then to be understood, not just to spread my autobiography, I try to lead myself by values not emotions.
Cheers from Cologne, Germany
Alex

Hi All,
I am a software engineer from England. Previously I did a lot of embedded work in C or C++. Now I am doing more Python and Go. Long ago I was an electronics engineer.
I was brought here but a StackOverflow share your problem link!
Greetings from Rennes, France! I joined to keep up with the latest trends and learn from the community. Unfortunately my currrent work doesn't allow too much development anymore but I take any opportunity to do it. My favourite topics at the moment are Python, anything around Mobile Apps (especially Android), and apps that use cryptography.

Fact : I left CS:GO at MG1 rank because I couldn't grind more and programming interested me more.
Hello from Bangladesh!
I have been in coding for some time(since 1988), left it for quite some(since 2005) and then back again(very recently) only to find everything compiling way over my head!
So basically trying to stand up again!
Good day, all!
My name is Mahmoud. I'm a developer who is in love with Python and Javascript. I've been into web development for the past 15yrs. I'm focused on backend development now. Happy to be part of this community.
Thank you, happy to be here. Like I said I started learning how the android environment worked with the very first galaxy S, which I still have. As everyone here knows, that code has become much more complex over the years with many language variations. Last year I got myself certified in Java and have been beta testing things here and there. I found that groups like this are a great place to learn. I'm always willing to test apps as I'm far from end user, but not a developer. I've caught issues in apps on the play store and instead of leaving a bad comment I emailed the developer and send them logs of what happened. I would really like pointers on building a file manager like X-plore with a few different ideas. Any help would be much appreciated.
I m a web developer, I have programming experience in javascript with relevant projects. Currently, I'm working on the 2 projects, Slack Clone and Video Streaming App. I like to read a lot about the current technology market and changes in the web development field.
I learned about the DEV Community through Twitter, and I've enjoyed reading articles for a while. I'm finally joining so I can make myself write some articles to share some of the things I'm learning and enjoying working on. Excited to be here!

Hi folks,
I hope y'all are doing well. I love JavaScript, going to propose her on this 14 Feb, I'm new to reactjs, I have also learned vuejs and created some small apps like admin templates, I'm not so pro with vuejs. It's been around 1 year I'm doing coding, firstly PHP then Lil bit ROR, then totally diverted into javascript. I want to clear my basics of basics so I can do better coding. I found this channel from the reactjs official site. I hope this channel will help to grow.

All the best!
Hi from Portland, Oregon!
I'm a front-end developer with an interest in open source. I have an unhealthy enjoyment of HTML and CSS. In a previous life, I was a newspaper designer, but then I found web application development and never looked back.
So i got here by what most people (including me) would call by accident, right now, i just want to learn. So here's a warning am attaching to my first post, i am a slow learner, but i learn (if you ever saw game of thrones proper like i did, then you would know who's words they were). I know i need an instructor who can push me and also be patient to put me through. Daivesteel

Hello to everyone!! I m really glad that I was able to find this community. I have been following this community from the past one week. I am looking to become a devolper.I am starting from scratch.i started learning core Java and in the meanwhile I tried to learn about Linux. But still I think I don't have the clear idea of how to make a career out of this. I want to make some difference regarding my future. I really wish if anyone of you could help me out in choosing the right path.
Hi there! I'm Andy, and I'm about to start a new job on Monday as a web developer for the Delaware Department of State building WordPress websites for state agencies.
I built my first website in 1998 as a bored teenager using Tripod. I have since always had an interest in it. I made it a part of my job starting in 2008 and then took a leap and went freelance full-time in 2016. It only lasted seven months, but I have been a full-time professional developer since then employed either full-time or contract.
It feels like a long journey, but I finally feel like a real developer who uses whatever tools get put in front of me to solve problems. I specialize in front-end and WordPress, though I'm comfortable working on both sides of the stack when the need arises.
Looking forward to learning and sharing!
Hi there.
I'm Felipo, 33 yo Brazilian. Used to work as a graphic/digital designer for the past 8 years but due to trying to migrate to a different country I've been out of the field for around 2 years and now trying to catch up with all the new tools and knowledge I missed.

Hi all,
I'm Dimi and I'm quietly reading dev.to posts for quite some time. :) I'm a software engineer in a medical software company. In my free time I love to try out new web related technologies. I think I've gathered a lot of web dev experience while building one of my side projects. I think it's time to share! :)
Hello! I'm Joan! I'm joining the dev community to try to be more involved in the engineering community. I also want to learn more frontend and get inspired (i think i kind of lost my spark and got disillusioned in 2019). I thought dev might be a fun way to keep up with others, and to eventually track my own learnings in posts!
Looking forward to familiarizing myself with this siteπ
Hello, world! I'm Naren, preparing to get my first tech job.

I'm super excited about flutter!

hurrayyyyyyyyy
Hi all! I've been coding an awfully long time; since 3rd grade in 1981 on a 16kb Atari 800. I created some of the first browser based games in the dotcom boom, co-founded two VC-backed social networking startups in the Web2 era, spent a lot of time in robotics, toys, and computer vision; and lately have been into blockchain.
Found some great articles on DEV, and the community seems really vibrant.
I just posted this today, for those interested in how we got from punch cards to vim to syntax highlighting: dev.to/wanderingstan/the-evolution...
