I'm sorry if that has been answered before, but I always get confused on how to say the name of this awesome community. What is the correct way?
- DEV Community
- dev.to
- The Practical Dev
I always tend to say dev.to.

Devito, as in Danny, but the line on the "i" ran away.
It plays on "I'm a dev too!"
dev.to
We call it “dev too” around the office.
Seems to work pretty well.
I always tend to say dev.to, but I've never been quite sure!
I tend to say "dev" or "dev to" when speaking with dev folks; and "Dev Community" with non-dev folks
I just had this exact conversation with my coworker.
I'm a "dev dot to" person myself.
I would absolutely LOVE this.
or to.dev😂
Or practical.dev? 😂
I always pronounce it "dev to". Short and sweet.
Yes
In all seriousness, I generally think of it as “dev dot tee oh” for folks who don’t know, and then “dev too” or “dev” for folks who know what it is.
Practical Dev is just the Twitter account, though I’d like to do something new to maybe differentiate it. ThePracticalDev will always be the origin story. ❤️
Here’s a little aside for anyone reading this right now: Can anyone get to the bottom of who owns dev.com? As much as we all love dev.to, if we migrated to dev.com it would kind of cement the whole journey. But no idea who owns it.
Reminds me of that episode where you were invited on Software Engineering Daily podcast
name.com/contact-domain-whois/dev.com Assuming you already tried this, but maybe if enough people ask they will eventually give a response.
I found an other website that is also hosted on the same IP has
dev.com
, however the WHOIS information is also hidden.That website also seems dead, you can view file directory and found some files that I hope contain fake data... I can send you the link if you are interested.
If the last modified dates are correct then last activity was around August 2018.
"dev dot to" ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I honestly think that dev.to rocks more than dev.com
I always say devTo!
Yes, it is.
iirc 'The Practical Dev' is for the Twitter account. DEV, DEV.to, DEV Community, etc, all refer to here and are acceptable
For me it's dev.to. It's whole lot shorter, although it doesn't roll off the tongue as much as as the other two.
