Hello, I am Mithil.

David Kirchner he/him

Sloan, this one's for you.

I'm a largely backend developer that also does server work (bare metal up through k8s). I think I'm primarily interested in DevOps.

Most of the code I write is in JavaScript, run in nodejs. I used to write Android apps but the platform fragmentation ... well, I don't write apps any more. For servers, I use Salt and Terraform to make it easier to share changes for review and ensure reproducible builds.

I'm here to read about solutions created by other folks and maybe, one day, write about my solutions.

Regarding dev.to, I am impressed at how well the site behaves as an installed app (PWA?) and may need to learn how to write something this slick.

Hi everyone, I'm Lisa from Ireland, I'm and 38 year old mother of two who has been a stay at home mum for the last 11 years. I've always been a bit of a geek and dabbled in this and that as a hobby. This year I have decided to take my learning more seriously to find myself a job as a developer. This would be a complete career change from Payroll management. I am hoping with self learning i can be employable in the next year or two when i get the last child off to school. Spent the first few months of this year learning and building python projects which i really enjoyed, since then i have learnt the basics of a few other languages as well as sql, databases, github etc. Still a long way to go (especially getting anything with the kids around) but i am determined to get there. So glad i found this community yesterday, looks like it'll be a great help.

Went from junior webmaster, through loads of other IT positions all the way to CEO and owner. But let it all go few years ago and doing it just for fun, on my pet projects like jsbench.me - Javascript performance benchmarking tool. I went through a lot of technologies during years but latest stack is React with Mobx, AWS. But also 3d printing, Arduino and electronics and IOT in generals are big part of my hobby projects.

I'm here because I felt the craving to learn, and see what other devs are up to.

I just accepted a new job offer last week for a Senior Front End Developer position and I'll be working on SalesForce Commerce Cloud websites, so I'm excited to pursue that.

Last week I released a 3 stage form with React using Formik and Styled Components. It was my first time using those libraries in production but once I was thinking in the right paradigm it wasn't so hard.

Hi all!

Recently decided to join dev after seeing articles appear on my Google feed!

I've just finished my first year studying Computer Science at Kingston University. I have always had a passion for technology and found myself drawn towards the software development side of things (hence going to uni, despite being 33).

I primarily used to code in Python, which I taught myself! Since studying at uni I have found I very much enjoy Java too.

Outside of that I also enjoy a bit of web design and electronics particularly using Arduino and ESP microcontrollers as well being the Website Administrator for a local bicycle shop!

Always looking to learn new things or tinker with different pieces of software.

At this point, I've been a developer for 44 years, having started from main frame Fortran in college, through the microcomputer revolution, and through all the changes since then. Currently I do Windows development in Clarion, Website development with Drupal, and also wear Sysadmin and Network Admin hats. On my own, I'm picking up Python on the dev side, and Ansible on the sysadmin side, and occasionally poke my nose into things like powershell and Go. Good thing I actually enjoy learning new technical stuff - in this industry, you just about have to.

Hello lovely people of dev.to

I am James, i like to tinker in a few languages and am building up my portfolio of more recent example work. I am stumbling about all kinds of things i want to write about but finally decided to do it.

It is hard to put yourself out there sometimes, but you just gotta give it a go and see what happens! :)

Hope you all have a great day

Hello Devs!
I'm a JS developer who probably doesn't know JS and never will!
I'm a blogger at Medium and thegoodindian.com but I don't have a lot of discussions/views there, lol. So I thought I'd hang around where developers usually do ✌

Hello, I'm lead Java developer/Tech Lead from Columbus, Ohio. I want to get into Raspberry Pi and AI coding with Phyton just for fun and side hobby. I joined this group to get motivated so I don't find an excuse to bail out from doing stuff outside work :)

I'd like to make new friends with people in Columbus, Ohio area that share similar interests.

Nice to meet you all!

Hello Everyone, Mujtaba here from Pakistan,
I love technology and software, from mobile to computers, laptop to desktops, I have reverse engineered them all, I am a Software Quality Assurance Engineer by profession so that explains my attention to details :D

I have a very diverse experience working in Software development and the Internet industry as a Software Quality assurance engineer with complete ownership of the STLC from Planning to deployment, I am well versed with Test planning, Test Design, Test Execution plus Automation and then reporting the test results to the stakeholders.

I have experience developing Web Automation frameworks from scratch using Selenium, cypress, and puppeteer with Java, Python, C#, and node.js. (Programming Languages are specific to the tools as Cypress is currently only with js)
I am well versed in creating Automation Frameworks for Mobile Apps using Appium Selenium, Java, and TestNG.

I have experience creating Websites using Wordpress and Javascript-based Frameworks like Hugo, Amp, etc.

I have DevOps and Cloud Experience using GCP, AWS, and Azure to create and deploy pipelines for improved quality Software Product Development and integrating it using CI/CD tools like Jenkins and VCS tools like GitHub and bitbucket.

I write articles related to Test Automation Tools for TestProject, I contribute to Google Developers Community by working to facilitate events with GDG Cloud Nuremberg Germany.

I work Full Time at APIMatic as their QA Engineer overlooking our products that are improving the developer experience and making a positive impact on the Software industry.

I am hoping to learn new things and contribute to the dev community here.
