Hello! Ed here. Currently on deployment, learning CSS
Welcome! I really enjoyed your blog post! Hope you can come back home soon :)
Thank you and nice to meet you. Still learning my way around.
Welcome, Eddie!
which topic you are learning right now?
Hello!
Just started the Git section.
Hey, guys! I'm a full-stack web dev, and I'm mostly using this platform as an excuse to document, study and take the dust off of my English (it is my second language). I hope to be useful for anyone that passes by my profile.
Hi! I'm a frontend web dev, English is my second language too. Really nice to join this community! In near future wanna learn backend.
Hey! I'm a full-stack web developer, too and will be glad to exchange knowledge!)
Welcome!
I am a full-stack web developer, too working on node js, react js and mongodb stack.
Hello, insert some kind of wave emoji, I'm Raphael. I'm a freelance DevOps and do unhealthy amounts of automation, kubernetes-stuffs and cloud magic. I've been a lurker for about 3 years and last week thought I'd finally open my mouth and chime in :D
If you want to read about Container, Kubernetes or Cloud-Stuff, I'd be happy to write a few things down for you :D
Hey Raphael
I’m going from being a low-code developer to full-stack. I’m building my first web app and wondering how I go from ‘it runs on my machine’ to ‘ive got a multi-environment, self-healing, auto-scaling, well-oiled internet machine’. What would you say are the key tasks to achieve with containers and when should they be done in the project?
Cheers
Ferg
Oof, that is a fantastic question, and deserves a detailed answer.
If you want, I can whip up an article about this real quick, since it might blow up your viewport, once I hammer out the things I think "are necessary".
It would probably be too much / out of scope for this welcome thread :)
Rereading it, it is a massive question! No need to rush on my part but would be great to hear what you’ve got to say. I currently work with a development platform that provides a lot of developer functionality through containers and orchestration so I’ve seen the benefits. What I don’t know is how effortful things are, so I guess I’d also be interested in where the biggest return on effort is.
How long have you been doing devops/cloud/container stuff for?
Indeed it is a massive question, but I love it to be honest. I'll gladly write about it. Maybe it's so much, it could become a series. I'll see how far I'll get tomorrow, I already got a sizeable post drafted :D
I've been doing devops for about 12 years now, though I have been more on the automation side of things, so heavier on the ops part, than dev.
Containers and Cloud I'd say about 8-10 years, though at first more "private cloud" corporate stuff, public clouds roundabout 5 years with Azure and AWS now.
As for the effort of things.
I'd say the ROI depends on the requirements and the mentality of the team, you decide how far you want to go.
From a perfectly automated pipeline that is triggered by a git push, all the way through staging, up to production is a perfectly normal thing and, depending on the requirements, can be done in just a few days, up to a few weeks, or even months.
Others in the meantime want to build containers locally, test them by hand and go down their checklist, like a "manual pipeline", until they deploy their container to production by hand.
Disclaimer: I'm pretty hardcore on the automation side. While it is definitely a bigger investment up-front, once you are fully or even semi-automated (which isn't as much work as it may sound at first), you are essentially developing 100% of the time. All the menial deployment tasks are gone, which can result in a huge net profit in development-time, which itself again results in more features, more quickly and thereby happier stakeholders.
A few days back I wrote a post about "Zero to Kubernetes", which basically automates a local kubernetes setup into one command. If you want to dabble with containers, you could probably make good use of that :)
Cheers Raphael, I will take a look at your post tonight. I’m in full agreement with you about automation - I’d rather invest a bit more time now to save time later, and also hope to avoid mistakes through humans doing repeatable tasks. Plus repeatable tasks are just boring, right?

Hi, I'm Steve from Nigeria, I'm a frontend developer with little experience and I want to learn alot in this community so as to help me develop my skills
Hey. New here too. Hope you get what you need here.
Yes and you too?
Hey, Steve. It's nice to have you here. Together we can learn a lot.
Hello, I'm here because I love reading up on new technologies and how I can utilize them in my own work. I'm always stuck on what I should work on for personal projects and tend to jump between programming languages. Currently I'm working on a movie watchlist / suggestion application for me and a few friends, with that I'm learning express js, mongoDB with mongoose, deploying my application. I'm pretty early on in my career and want to absorb as much knowledge i can.
Good Evening. Just learning to code hoping to make a career change.
Welcome!
Thank you very much!
Welcome!
Hello! Am Daniel from Kenya. Recently, started pursuing a career as a Web Developer and am here to exchange ideas and get some tips or referrals on some of the best resources that can help me unless the beast in me :)
Hello, everyone!
Just landed here, wishing everyone is safe (be it at home, in a protest or elsewhere). Wear masks, y´all.
Feeling uneasy among all the possibilities out there, especially since I´m a beginner in tech studies/development - a whole new world opens out, which is so awesome!
My current status is 'employed' (yey!), although I have an urge to do something else - in fact, something that I haven´t figured out yet. So... yeah, pretty much, I´d welcome any advice concerning what could be a good path to follow until I can grasp what I want to create and share with the world.
I´m a hard worker, BTW, my bosses seem to love that characteristic in me.
Looking forward to making new connections, and have fun in the process!
Hey! I am from Germany and mainly a freelancer for Node.js and web-projects but I am also honing my entrepreneurial skills and try to launch side-projects :) Have worked in a quite successful German startup as a backend/devops engineer for 3 years, so I am really happy to share my knowledge on keeping a backend running for 40 millions users :)
Would love to read your articles
Hi all, I am a BI engineer and passionate about learning next-gen tools and tech which deals with Data. Though I am a beginner over here but still looking forward to learning lots of things from this community which can lead to solving some real-world problems. Also, way back in college I always urged to perform some sentimental analysis and also to get my hand dirty with data mining techniques. I am very curious to explore both of the topics any suggestion and guidance will be really appreciatable.
Thank You
Happy Learning

Hello I'm Mike from the UK, I've been here a week and am loving it. I'm looking to expand my knowledge and be prompted to try out new things! Also very happy to help others.
I've been in this business for a long time (hmmm, err, well I sold my first computer game in 1983, when I was still in school). I've been lucky that my passion for software development has taken me all over the world. The biggest thing my career so far has taught me is:
In my first week I got inspired by some great other work and wrote an open source library I'm really proud of :)

Hi there! Found my way here after googling "web developer mom" and reading @rose 's article about being a developer and mom. I've been a hobbyist developer for about 25 years, and have leveraged my webdev skills in my career as an educator, librarian, and editor, but now I'm a PhD student in information and library science who will be graduating in a year or so and thinking of pivoting to webdev for my next career phase. And I'm a mom, which shapes my career decisions hugely.
Hi! I'm Alberto from Madrid, Spain. I'm a self-taught web developer mainly working with Ruby on Rails, React, and Node.js. I hope to make meaningful contributions to the dev.to codebase as it's one of the projects my pod (from the MLH Fellowship) is supporting!
Hi everyone
I’m Ferg, I’ve been a professional developer using low-code for just over two years, and some time spent on web and iOS before that. I’m currently building my first full-stack web application using c#, .net on the back end, and react on the front end. Along the way I’m looking to understand cloud, devops, containers, CI/CD - I use all of these at work currently but our platform has done the heavy lifting for us already. I’d be happy to write about anything people are interested in along the way
Hi, everyone! Start a day with learning something new with a smile on your face :)

Hi!
I'm Jorge, a software engineer, based in Barcelona, with university degrees in media and bartending (they're two different programs, unfortunately 😅). I work (remotely) at Frontside Software, an agency in Austin 🤠.
I've been reading articles here for a while, but I decided to join after I saw the tweet about #devPride this year. It's nice to see a community giving a voice to gay devs like me, as well as other communities, which the industry has generally left behind.

Hello, Ben here. I'm currently working on preparing from switching teaching Computing into a career in software development. I've a little time to spend up-skilling, so will be asking loads of questions on "best practice" over "how to do this".
Can code, but i've been out of the game for 10 years, so what was best practice 10 years ago may of changed in the time....code never changes!
Hello everyone ! I'm June, I'm still a student taking CompEng course, hoping I will graduate this month. I'm currently learning the front end side now.

Hi! I am Alex, a 2nd year CS student at the University of Oxford. I have just finished my academic year and am excited to start my summer internship at Jane Street. I am pleased to meet all of you! :)
Hey 👋 I'm a software engineer from Scotland. Although I'm massive fanboy of Javascript I most often code professionally in C#. With around 7 years experience of software development since leaving University, I have tinkered with a lot of tech. Not all of it has stuck with me but I like to think that by trying out different languages and techniques that it helps strenghten you as a developer. I love all things sci-fi, post-apocalyptic novels, and my golden retriever Lupin 🐕
The reason I joined dev.to was to get involved with a programming community. From the outside looking in, this site really seems like a welcoming progressive space that helps others flourish. Hopefully I'll be able to contribute to that!
Hey, my name is Jeswin from Canada, currently am a self-employed flutter developer

Glad to finally join dev.to, hope to become useful for others pretty soon.
Hello there 👋 Myself Santosh Bhandari
First of all I hope everyone is doing fine in this moment of global panademic.
I love to use computers and learn something new every day. That is the reason why I got into programming and stuffs. I have basic knowledge of C,C++ (obtained from college as course material).
Furthermore I have learnt Node.js, Vue and Nuxt on my own. Now a days I do a bit of web dev and also discord bot development.
Apart from my programming interest I also love to write and share knowledge/experience. That is why I also have a small blog santoshb.com.np/blog/
I love to make new friends so I am glad to be here to learn something new and make lots of new buddies! ❤️
Hello there! How are you guys doin!
I'm a full stack developer. Majorly worked on Python, Django, React.js, JavaScript, Java, & Docker. I'd love to have any kind of discussion from software design, programming, full stack, or entrepreneurship to building distributed system & products.
I got to know about this beautiful channel on internet from my friend and already enjoin the blogs here. Kudos!
Hey guys! Hope everyone is good. I'm Greg, an aspiring Front-end developer currently learning HTML, CSS and Javascript hoping to make a career change. Looking forward to learning/exchanging knowledge with you guys 👍
Hi everyone,
I am Francesco, software developer (with a preference for the backend side), nice to meet you!
I hope to contribute to this vibrant community, and to learn something new in the process :)
Hi everyone. I've read a few articles here which have helped me, so I thought I'd join to share some of the things I've learned and blogged about in the past.
I spend my time working with the LAMP stack, but have an interest in Python and CI/CD.
Hi all! I'm an Android dev living in BCN, I used to give some tech talks so now I'm trying to write some posts. I'm interested in procedural generation music and storytelling, I'm going to try to write something about it bc I have near 0 idea, and I always find useful intros from people learning. ( if animal crossing allows me XD)
Hey! I live in Barcelona too, and I love coffee far too much haha what's you favourite coffee bar in town?
Hello all! My name is Hayden, I’m an undergraduate student in Ohio studying computer science and education; I’m getting licensed to teach at the K-12 level. I’m planning on posting mostly to solidify my own learning or share cool things I discover/make. I haven’t quite gotten around to posting yet, but I’m hoping on getting there soon!
I should have done this a long time ago. I started the Thinkful bootcamp program last year, but I was not able to finish because of the Tech interview. However I've continued to study and will not stop as this seems like a life long endeavor.
After our company was dissolved a month and a half ago I found myself unemployed for the first time in a very long while. I thought I would have more time to become a competent developer. But it seems like I've been thrown into the fire. Coming into coding as a 44 almost 45 year old black guy without a degree seems daunting, but I'm going to give it my all.
On the bright side I've worked remotely for the last eight years focused on javascript snippets and reverse proxy manipulation so It is not all new.
Hi to all,
Daniel, 32 years young, from Vienna/Austria here.
I worked in this business now for about 12 years.
Started as a trainee I learned Java, after 7 years I wanted to try something new and changed company to an web agency - that was the start for my "new" passion.
Now I'm here.
I would call me Full Stack with a bit more passion to Frontend.
I also love to work with Vue/Nuxt.
What I'm learning ?
hmm we never learned enough so I try to get better in all things I need or find interesting ;)
And as you see ... I talk a lot haha
