Hey folks,
Airbrake here! We're an error monitoring tool that you should definitely try if you don't already have one. There. Now the shameless plug is out of the way.
We're excited to hop on to dev.to and share some of the posts coming out of our blog. We'll mostly be using dev.to to share content we think offers helpful advice for IT management, but we also write a ton of stuff for beginners. You can find all of it at airbrake.io/blog
Eager to hear your thoughts on our writing and read what everyone else is publishing!
Have a swell rest of your Thursday.
Howdy!
Hello! I'm Marty.
I've been toying with the idea of writing an article for a while. I'd like to find a way to translate the topics I'm currently studying into something immediately useful, and I've read that the act of teaching or explaining something is a great way to solidify new knowledge.
I've always held back thanks to a fear that I don't have the "authority" to say very much in this field, but a little voice in my head knows that that's not really a requirement in order to contribute something useful to this community. I'm hoping that by signing up for this site and introducing myself, I'll have moved one step closer to reaching my goal of publishing my first article. Cheers!
Welcome Marty!
I understand that fear very well! Up until a few months ago, I had daily impostor syndrome and it still nags me now and again.
I just try to remember that the teaching model that we were likely raised by, whereby the facade of top-down education taught us that we could not teach without perfection, is not a true representation of how we learn.
We were trained to think that the teacher and the learner are separated, the teacher passing something to the learner and nothing to him/her self. The act of teaching seemed as an activity that only happens during certain times of day.
The reality, fortunately, is that the teacher and the learner are the same and it is happening all of the time. To teach IS to learn.
At this point in my commenting, a related fear of mine pops in mind to say, "Now, listen to you, all arrogant-like, trying to 'advise' this person. Who do you think you are!? Just delete this and don't embarrass yourself." And I could respond with submission and give in to that fear; retract my sharing. I could respond with aggression and an attempt to shut down my fear, to tell it to shut up. OR I could surrender to the process of allowing myself to learn by doing.
Submitting or shutting myself down means that I won't communicate, my own learning is stifled and I offer nothing to anyone else. I can do those things. I have made those choices many times. BUT, right now, I am choosing to allow myself the possibility of making a mistake in communication, for the sake of creating the opportunity to learn. If my aim is to teach only, I will not learn. If I aim to learn only what an "expert" possesses, I will never teach. However, when I share my experiences and engage with others in the process, the fear weakens, knowledge and understanding is developed and joy follows.
Anyway, I hope this long-winded thought helps you to develop your first article! :D
Welcome, Marty! I'm excited to read that first article.
I'm glad that the "little voice" of encouragement is already there. I think that one of the most destructive misconceptions that stops people from publishing articles is the false belief that you have to be an expert to write a worthwhile article.
I've learned so much from junior/intermediate developers sharing their realizations and experiences. They're often written in a much more approachable manner, step-by-step, without assuming existing knowledge.
Cheers!
Thanks for that, Peter! Cheers!
Hey Marty. I understand about the fear of writing and posting your first article. I'm in the same position. I'm transitioning from a career as a teacher into tech, and so I've been putting in a lot of work to learn the tools of the trade.
For me, the most helpful articles have been short 'how tos' on doing pretty specific things, such as user authentication with Passport and Sequelize, how to set up a MongoDB database, getting Socket.io into your project, etc.
I'm not sure what your direction was for your article, but just putting out there what I like to see!
Anyways, good luck!
Hello Marty!
Greetings all! My name is Deanna, and I have a loop running in my head that says "you know nothing, Jon Snow!" In that scenario, I'm Jon Snow. Just to be clear.
I know that I've learned a ton in the last few months, but I still struggle like crazy with pretty much everything. It's always interesting to go back a few assignments, though. Once I move on a bit, I look at those older ones and think "wow, I totally get it now. I wonder why it didn't click earlier?" That's what keeps me going: knowing that it will eventually click, albeit not as fast I'd prefer.
Here's to everyone giving each other a hand!
Hey! I'm Ali!
I have been writing a blog on how I learn new things as a developer, and I think I'm going to port that blog here because the community seems great and Markdown support is a gamechanger.
I teach people how to code at General Assembly, which I love. I have quite a bit of experience teaching fullstack JavaScript, Python, and Ruby. I have also done work in C++ and Java.
Right now I'm really into front-end work. This is the first time in my career I've had time to really hone in those skills, and I really like the artistic side of development.
Before that, my job was somewhere in between full stack web dev and data science -- it was a ton of fun too, but I really love the social-ness of teaching.
I'm also trying to talk at more conferences and meetups, so if anybody needs a speaker or teacher, reach out!
My #1 tip for people starting out is to find what part of development you love and then get really good at it. Writing code can be something different for everybody, and that's my favorite part of it. Really artistic people can work on animations and design-oriented CSS, mathematical people can do amazing things with data science, problem solvers can be great software architects or debuggers, musicians can do a ton with sounds on the web, etc! Find your niche and run with it, because you will be so much more likely to want to spend time developing yourself professionally and your enthusiasm will show!
I am super excited to be part of this community, and my first post is up! dev.to/aspittel/how-i-finally-buil...
👋👋👋👋👋
Welcome!!
What's GA teaching these days? When I went through WDI, it was Ruby/Sinatra, Rails, Angular & Node.
I feel like @sirjessthebrave would have the intel on any DC meetups that need speakers!
Sorry for the late reply - I was on a glorious no tech vacation in Japan for 2 weeks!! Yah I have the low down on some of the DC tech meetups - what kind of stuff are you looking for Ali?
Hey! That's awesome - sounds like a lot of fun! I am pretty into front-end and portfolio stuff right now, but I used to be primarily back-end, so I'm decent with that stuff too! My primary stack is React/Vue/Vanilla JS with Node/Python backend. Thank you so much!
Thanks!!!! 👋
We do Rails/Node/Express/React + a tiny bit of Python right now! It's a ton of fun. Awesome to hear from previous WDI people! What campus did you go through?
New York! Let me know if you're ever visiting and want to grab a ☕️ / 🍵 / 🍻!
Hey, there!
I am a full-stack JavaScript expert with almost 10 years of experience and CEO at CreativeIT, a software house in Belarus. Here I’m responsible for technical consulting, negotiating with customers, and managing our team.
Being an active contributor to open source development, I’m proud that many of our company’s products have a lot of stars on GitHub. So, I’m going to create my own blog on this amazing platform and share experience with you.
Also, I will be glad to discuss technical issues and exchange ideas. Hope, I will become a great part of this community.)
Hey, nice to meet you!
Hello! I'm Ryota Murakami.
I work as a Front End Developer, who like React, React OSS community, and especally fan of redux, also Dan Abramov(redux author).
I've been learning workflow, architecture, testing of React Based Application. There is a long way to go...
Thank you so much :D
Hey! I'm a front-end developer and I also enjoy React, Redux, and React community. With a 9-year experience in building React and JS applications, I'm also an active open-source contributor. Nice to meet you!
Hello! Nice to meet you!
Welcome here! :D
Thx for your reply(´∀｀)
Hi there. I'm Rachel. After taking a five year walkabout where I wrote a book on UI animation (Animation at Work with A Book Apart: bkaprt.com/aaw ), wrote API docs and did some fun tooling projects with browsers like Firefox, I'm looking at getting back into my frontend dev roots—or specifically, digging into the heart of programming. I'm surrounded by some inspiring people I can't wait to learn from!
Hi Rachel! Nice to meed you!)
Welcome aboard Rachel! Front-end is 👌🏽 though the back-end is nice too. 😉
So awesome to have you onboard Rachel.
Welcome! I always find it hard to work on my frontend skills, mostly because I don't know where the resources are. Any specific resources you use/are using to improve your frontend dev skills?
I'm using a lot of the courses from Frontend Masters and books like Grokking Algorithms :)
Hello!
I'm Víctor, I'm a software developer and I've got something to say; dev.to is such a great thing, I do not only love coding, I find the "world" around it truly fascinating.
I'm glad to be part of a nice community, thanks mates.
It got me excited. Gonna see around and discover this "world" @ dev.to.
Hey all, I'm Ryan. Been a developer for nearly a decade, and an agile coach for around 4. I have a weakness for helping other developers navigate the weird career they've chosen and building better teams.
I've worked for startups, investment banks, educational tech companies, advertising, food service, shipping and logistics, and non-profits.
That's a lot of experience. Any preference of startup to big company or preference of industry after all that?
Do you still do a lot of development or are you more focused on the agile coach part? If so, what's the reason for the switch? Asking as a budding developer. :)
Lot of questions!
I really love the passion and energy that comes with working at a start up. I don't like how unhealthy it tends to get with lack of pay, benefits, or the idea that you have to work to death to be successful. Large companies are slower and more stable, but it allows a great opportunity to sharpen your skills.
As for the agile thing, well, I believe its my calling. The people I've worked with over the years that have been able to experience agility as it aspires to be describe it as the best experience of their career. I'd like to focus on giving people that kind of fulfillment over writing some code.
Hi Devs, I always wanted a dev.to account, now I have one, yay!
Its gonna be fun
Woohoo! Welcome!
tanx man
ayyye. welcome, i feel the same way.
Welcome, Nddy!
Hi! I'm Lens.
I wish to have a full stack development skills. I am currently working on a project to build a artificial personal assistant that helps people to manage basic activities,helps in time & daily management and help people do the tasks they want and need to do (get work done).
I am very happy to exchange and learn from professional engineers like you guys!
Hi Lens! Welcome.
Welcome!
Hi, I'm Fayaz, I've read a lot of articles in dev.to, so I thought it's about time I sign up. I'm so glad to meet all of you lovely people ❤️
One day soon I'll contribute something back to this wonderful community. All the best and have a nice day. In fact, have a fantastic life all of you 😊
Oh, I've said nothing about myself: I'm in web dev for 10+ years, most of the work I've done is private freelance work. Now a days I'm trying to get more involved in blogging, contributing back to the community little by little and working on a WordPress Plugin that'll (hopefully) change my life for good 😎

Hello, I'm Robert.
I am currently doing React/RN in SoloLearn and simultaneously majoring in Computer Science in American University of Armenia. I am trying to expand my knowledge as much as possible, as I am 18 yrs old and have a lot to learn. The articles I may write will usually be about the hardships and solutions on some problems I encounter while developing React/RN apps. Some of them come from documentation not being fresh or wrong, or some hacky solutions in certain cases, better patterns and architecture and best practices.
P.S. I love such communities and looking forward to write some articles. I still fear I am not good enough to talk about best practices and stuff but I will try my best :)
Hello, I am Prabhat.
I work on SAP ERP solutions, giving the existing application new user experience with SAP Fiori framework.
I use SAPUI5 library for UI development.
Though most of my development work is not on open source technologies, I have a keen interest in learning new frameworks with add as an innovation, like the hover feature on dev.to itself and the offline page.
I am very excited to learn more.
Cheers!
Hi! Welcome aboard!
Hi！my name is liaoya,I am learning c language，I hope to be able to grow and contribute here。
Ps：I am Chinese, English is relatively poor, I hope you and more exchanges with me, so my English may be promoted very quickly.
Hello, I'm also trying to learn C. IMHO every developer should at least learn the basic of C language or have an idea.
I'm doing some exercises from this website. My goal is to try them all.

Hey, I'm Pierre !
I just discovered this community through the last update of Vivaldi (vivaldi.com/blog/the-browser-you-w...)
I'm a young french developer, enthusiast and curious about tech. I'm kind of new into programming and everything about IT but I do my best to learn and improve myself in as many ways as I can !
The last things I did were:
My favorite language so far is Python but I would love to learn more about others (Why not Malbolge!) or improve in the ones I know.
Happy Coding !
Bienvenue !
Hello I'm KK
I'm a Japanese college student and I usually study about computer science and wireless sensor network.
But wireless sensor network is not uninteresting...
I want to study about system programming or software engineering.
I love golang and making libraries, cli.
And I want to contribute to golang or famous golang's package.
If there are developers of golang or golang's library in this place please get along with me.
Thank you.
Welcome to dev.to, fellow gopher!

Hello everyone!
I'm Marko, cofounder of SemaphoreCI.com, hosted CI/CD service.
dev.to looks like the closest thing to a conference in an online community form, which is really cool. I hope to meet some cool strangers, learn something new and share some stuff that we've learned while building Semaphore! :)
Hi everyone! I'm Mervin.
I'm a web developer who loves Javascript. I'm here to share and write articles just to learn and improve my knowledge and skills. I'm not an expert but I know that each one of us has our own idea or opinion.
I'm hoping that by writing articles on this site will give me more confidence. Thank you :D
Hello, guys. I'm Oscar a developer from Honduras, I have been coding for a while now and live out of it. I'm passionate about creating cool stuff and have made some small games myself. Currently I'm working on my own startup called Chekku
I'm an amateur bodybuilder and animal lover.
Hey I'm Scott.
I run forestry.io from Eastern Canada (PEI). We're making web development fun again :)
I'm writing a few pieces on modern web development tools and thought this could be a good home for an article or two. Love the inclusive nature of the community here. 💯
Hallo, I'm Yasar(pron. Yashar).
Current computer science student, and I have a job interview next week in a start-up, focused on blockchain solutions for businesses. My role for the job will be researching, developing, helping out the team.
So, reaching out to you lads, how can I prepare myself the best way for the interview? Shall I get in touch with the software the company has developed? Or should I just prepare myself in terms of blockchain tech?
Greets!
For those who are interested in: therefore it is a start-up company, they have no real HR. So, the interview was really not 'aggressive', it was quite relaxed, friendly, and personal. I was asked a little about my experiences and the technology they use in their products, my willingness to learn new topics, passion..
It was quite good, I think I got the job :)
Update after 3-4 months: I got the job. I am working as a junior software developer in a quite successful start-up now, as a working-student, part-time. I enjoy my time. It's a lot to learn, especially if you are a student yet.
I guess this is gonna jazz up my CV. The only thing missing are the good grades. And a girlfriend
Hi there !
I'm glad to meet you all! I try to write an article / month to give back to the community the awesome knowledge I took from many open sources projects and tech articles.
I'm a fullstack dev (despite the fact I hate this word); i.e. i've worked with JS on the front and Python on the back; and sometime an ops (with cool modern tools like Terraform and Ansible).
I'm mainly writing on Python/Backend topics, in French or English.
Cheers!
Hello folks! I'm Caio.
I'm currently working as a mobile dev but I'd say I'm pretty well rounded in other areas.
I love discussing code and landing people a hand so feel free to give me a ping if you are stuck trying to figure something out.
Cheers!
Hello World!
I'm Ephraim, a budding fullstack Dev from Nairobi, Kenya currently working as a web and mobile technology trainer at a college in my hometown.
I remember when I decided to learn how to code almost 2years ago and how overwhelmingly new(and strange) everything seemed at that time, and how many times I told myself this*coding* wasn't for me, and the only reason I kept at it was reading about how similar other people's journey learning how to code was,and ohh boy! I'm I glad I did.
I'm now a self-taught dev still learning whose gainfully employed teaching other people how to code, thanks to all the awesome devs who take time off their busy schedule to put up a blog podcast tutorial sharing their knowledge with the world.
Glad to join such an amazing community and can't wait to publish my first article on the things I've learned teaching/learning how to code :-)
Hi Ephraim
I'm always glad to meet other developer from Africa region (I'm from Madagascar, we're that far)
Were you already involved in a some professional field before starting to learn coding ?
Always a pleasure meeting a fellow African coder:-).
I was in IT but as a network admin, never knew I could learn to code on my own, access to info i guess.
Hi, my name is Michael. The Changelog Podcast brought me here!
I'm a frontend developer, getting into mobile, and working part-time. In the remaining time I study Clojure, tinker with Emacs, and try to contribute to the open source community. I use React with the mainstream toolset.
Oh cool! I didn't even realize that went live.
Hey everyone,

Hi, I am Alugbin Abiodun.
I want to be a core backend developer, but i have been stuck on writing php in different flavours, vanilla, Laravel and slim.
I do have a basic JAVA background with java swing and java fx and i have tried some basic applications with spring framework.
Now, am currently learning go, and i intend to make the best out of the language and also to be the best i can be.
I will love to work on distributed system with high demand of increased uptime and availability.
Also from backend, i will like to migrate to either big data or Machine Learning.
Its good to be here and i hope i can get some things done from this platform.
I hope i will also be able to contribute the little i know to newbies/beginners thereby preserving the continuity of the community.
Thanks all.

Hi everyone, Luke here.
I've been meaning to start writing blogs about my musings on React, software development, the ethics of social networking, perceptions of tech, privacy, security, messaging, etc. so I thought I'd join this brilliant community and make a start.
I'm currently helping to disrupt the world of messaging at matrix.org, working on a React-based app Riot.
I'm very interested to know people's opinions so I'll be spamming #discuss with discussions on various things and hopefully commenting a lot there, too. Maybe I'll put up a guide on making a simple Matrix client at some point as well.
To those joining, welcome. To those already joined, hello! :)
Hi,
My name is Daniel, I'm a developer from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I have been developing mostly for fun and hobbying since I was young, and 5 years ago decided to start up a software development company with a friend.
So I'm trying to gather advice and news from different points of view of the software development and engineering process. This lead me to dev.to, I've been reading the articles anonymously for weeks.
Saludos
Hola, Daniel! Welcome to dev.to! How's the start up going?
Hi Luke,
The site is very cool, comfortable to read and to interact, and thanks to the efforts of the users to write good articles, it's very useful.
Hello World, I am Vitor Amaral and I am from Portugal.
I was lost and alone on facebook, nobody notices a developer there, I finally find a camp full of developers, I'm not alone anymore. I'm excited to be in this community. [Laughing]
At the moment I am taking a Masters in Multimedia Communication at the University of Aveiro. With experience in the area I like to consider myself a Full Stack Developer & Management and Information Programming.

Hi I'm Julian or kensleDev :)
I have been looking for a site like this for a while so thanks to the Dev.To community the content I'm finding here is amazing!
I have been learning web development for the last 2 years and have just got my first role as a junior web dev (albeit a 6 month secondment in my current company) but I'm really excited!
I have also had an itch to write a few posts to help concrete my knowledge and share best practices!
I have been learning full stack development with Vue/Node/Mongo but for my new role will be using angular/SQL
I have lots of half blog posts that I have started but never finished so maybe I will sit down one day and complete one and post it on here!
Thanks
Greetings, all. I'll just go by Amorfus for now. I like to do the least amount of work with the greatest amount of output, which is basically a pretty way of saying I'm very lazy. That's what makes good programmers though, at least in my experience.
At the moment, I dabble in C#.NET mostly. The majority of my current efforts are in maintaining and "upgrading" a handful of applications written by previous employees who were far too overloaded to create very much documentation. That has resulted in a lot of baptism by fire, ultimately landing me on sites like this in attempts to claw my way out of undesirable bottlenecks.
Hi Everyone! I'm Abhinav.
I am a developer, worked mostly on the web and .net technologies. I am here seeking new learning and tips from all of you and share my experiences.
The pace technology is progressing right now, I think every dev should stay connected and ready to learn new.
Cheers!
Hello and welcome, Abhinav.
I'm a .net developer too.
I would like to see your thoughts and experiences.
Hello to devs of all shapes and sizes :)
My name is Ice Carev.
I am a software developer from Macedonia with a primary focus on Java and Web related technologies. I just started my own start-up company called XTRID (sorry no web site yet :S ) and also started writing on my own blog. I found this community by shear luck and i immediately fell for it. This is a treasure chest for any developer and i have been highly recommending this site to all of my friends and colleagues.
I am looking forward to new insights and also an addition from some of my own articles which i will be writing in the future here :)
Hi everyone!
I am Aggeliki and i study IT. I like programming in android and HTML but i have programmed in some different languages for High school projects!
I am happy for being here meeting other programmers!
Hi everyone!
I'm Rodrigo Ali, from Córdoba, Argentina.
I've been doing some self-taught learning in computing sciences and programming (for around 4 months or so), and like a month later I landed a job in a local software development company. I'm turning 9 months in the industry and in this job (right now solving bugs and doing some user stories in an application front end, JavaScript based) and hope to grow and become a Data Scientist sooner or later.
I've decided to join this community because I read some awesome articles around here, and as I switcher my job career (I'm 29 years old, changed jobs when I was 28), I might try to write some personal experiences that could help out people in the same situation, doubting whether if it's too late to change their job careers, or their own capabilities to learn new things that one might not ever seen or studied before.
Hope I can manage to do some articles and help people out in the same situation I was a year ago.
Cheers! And happy coding.
Rodrigo Ali.
Hello! I'm Chuks.
Basically, I'm here to hopefully write technical articles and read a lot of awesome ones. I don't really write a lot because I'm super good at procrastination and most times, I feel like I'll be writing about what someone else has already written about.
Hopefully, this is the first step to breaking that jinx!
Cheers!
Hi guys,
Vikram here. I've been programming for around 6+ years now ( college time scripting included ). Currently, working as technical project lead in India.
Areas where I've made most mistakes ( read - have the most experience ) in :
. PHP web services
. Golang web services
. Shell scripts
. Javascript web services
. MySQL and MongoDB storage and queries
. Java programs ...
I believe the process of learning, improving and innovating is at the core of all software technology.
Here to learn, and share my knowledge with the global development community.
Peace out :)
Hello to you all!
My name is Stevan,
I'm a software engineer for the past 5+ years. I have some experience in Banking software, a lot of SQL experience, little bit of Xamarin and mostly WPF and C# backend experience.
I'm looking to meet tech people and discuss never-ending subjects for software development.
Hello, I'm Chidindu.
I am kinda new to programming, started this year January. I have this project in machine learning I want to embark on, but I feel there's this level of knowledge i have to acquire before I can do this. Is this a healthy thought?
Hi, I'm Idan. Currently doing DevOps for a living, and most of my open source projects are Vim plugins(though I recently started doing some Rust stuff)
I was looking for a blogging platform because I wanted to make a long due post explaining the rationale behind one of these plugins. When I think of Medium all I can imagine is huge images covering the entire screen pushing the actual text of the blog out of the screen, and Jekyll is too much of an overkill(I can probably handle it, but but why do I have to invest so much time just to be "minimalist"?), so I ended up here. Now I just have to write that post - hope it won't take me another year before I get to do that...
Hello! I'm Dammy.
I've been reading Dev.to for a while now before i decided to join, i have really found a lot of courage in these lands (devtoville), which has really made the journey easier. I am into front-end dev for now, a beginner. The aim is to become full-stack and get a real dev job (before that). Happy to be here and to have the privilege to learn from the professionals on here. I also know some Python.
Hi! I'm Romilly Cocking; I've been in love with computers for almost 60 years, and I still love learning and teaching about new tech.
I'm currently working an a book about the micro:bit and researching AI and Robotics. I feel I'm living in a golden age. Open Source Hardware and Software create so many exciting opportunities.
Hello, I'm Eliabe.
I'm relatively a new programmer. I program in Javascript and PHP mostly.
I've been working with web development for about 1 year and I love it. I have had some experiences with some desktop programming languages, but never gone too far. I first started as a front end in my current job, but now I do some server side work too.
I work in a startup, by the way, we create intelligent recomendations for e-commerce.
:D
Hi Everyone, I am Paul. I work as an instructor for unesco, teaching over 400 people how to build mobile applications using phonegap. I recently started developing with JavaScript and fell in love with React.js. Generally I've been in the tech world for 5 years now, fixing networks and configuring different Microsoft servers for some organizations. I look forward to building a career as a software developer, hopefully I'd learn a thing and two from you guys.
Hey there, this is Froxx!
I'm a fullstack developer and currently working mainly on the frontend side.
For now I'm trying to realize some websites with Angular 5 to get a feeling about differences in this area compared to e.g. Wordpress.
I'm looking forward to have some discussions about hot topics in this area, and also a new help-endpoint next to Stackoverflow ;)
Greets!

Hello am Samuel Anthony,
I have been practicing and wanting to become a very good programmer, and recently i came into Dev.to, i really love it and would want some courage and teachings to learn more on development work.. thanks
Hello All, I'm Tony.
I'm a curious wanderer. I was, once upon a time, an anthropology major. After dropping out I purchased some old computers from the university surplus store and tinkered. I've worked as an artists assistant (framer, model, web developer), a coffee house owner (management, barista, sysadmin, web developer), a pipeliner (ditch digger, sandblaster, general labor, sysadmin), and an IBMer (Backup and Recovery Admin - Blues - TSM, BackupExec, NetBackup).
After almost 5 years at IBM my wife and I decided to sell our house, car, and most of our belongings to start wandering the planet. For almost a year before we left we studied programming/web development. I tinkered with python and PostgreSQL to automate some of my job at IBM and my wife learned HTML,CSS, and JavaScript.
We noticed some friends in need of a simplified process at their business to escape a cumbersome spreadsheet. We created a web app for them with Angular 1, NodeJS, and Postgres. Not long after completing that app my wife began to pick up some freelance work. This provided the confidence I needed to make the leap and leave IBM.
I then found Go and, after encountering some (re)deployment issues with the NodeJS app and my wife enjoying ReactJS, we decided to rewrite that first webapp. In the process of rewriting and deploying that app I was completely sold on Go. Upon completion of the rewrite in Go/React/Postgres and a lack of freelance work coming in, we found ourselves seduced by day trading. We have since recovered and are again building our development skills.
In my journey I have stumbled upon dev.to numerous times and have finally decided to join.
Hi all. I'm Abraham and started to learn coding but it seems that I'm not making any progress. Would like someone to show me the ropes, please!!!?
Hey Abraham — check out the #beginners tag which has plenty of great content.
Hello, I'm Mikael!
I am currently a product manager from Sweden at a small software development company. On the side I'm exploring what it is to be a fullstack developer because I think our current internal software is more or less junk.
Stay tuned, there might come a few posts about doing a medium/big project on my own!
Hi, I'm Stephen.
I do back-end development / dev-ops. I've been reading a lot of articles on dev.to and have been learning so much. One day I hope to work up the nerve to start writing a blog or write articles here about the things I've been learning in my day-to-day work to help give back. Just need to get over my case of impostor syndrome :P
Hello, I'm Nick.
Currently, i'm working at an offline Data Store for mobile apps. I started this project as a way to learn more things and delve into the obstacles that appear in that kind of library and what the enterprise level libraries are called to solve.
Hello everybody, I am Vipul.
I am here to enhance my knowledge of web development and most surely share my experience(however small it is) with all of you, and we will learn along the journey.
I am here to see the excitement and amazement that I feel while programming in others and learn from everybody else's experience and knowledge.
I guess I would do good here.
Thanks.
Hi,

Hello everyone,
My name is Anderson. I came here by way of a random search for guidance in Crystal programming (dev.to/crystal-lang). Cool beans!
I am a software developer in financial tech. I enjoy solving problems with code. When I'm not doing that, the shell is where I "twiddle my thumbs" :D
Looking forward to chatting more here in the future!
Hi there, I'm Lars!
I am a web developer and I am always thrilled to learn new things and to realize my ideas.
Recently I started a platform where people can publish step-by-step guides for coding via GitHub: lgkonline.github.io/skill-guide
I am excited to read more articles on DEV.to.
Hello! I'm Apar.
I just got into web development specially with web applications based on javascript frameworks.
Hi, I'm Lens.
I wish to be a full stack developer.
I am currently working on a project to develop a artificial personal assistant, a super cool!
I am happy to exchange and learn from top engineers like you guys.
Hey all, I'm Nick from the North Side of Chicago (but I'm a huge White Sox fan, Whaaa). I'm currently studying to expand my knowledge of code, and update my current code skillset. My past Front End roles were mainly doing bug fixes for the terrible IE's: 6, 7, 8, and converting designs to pixel perfect design. I took a five year hiatus to focus on UI/UX work and icon design, but am looking to get back into development full time, or a hybrid type role at a smaller shop at the end of my studies (or now if you have a need).
If you need a design, icon or illustration, drop me a line!
Hello! My name is Pedro.
I began my career as a Software Engineer three months ago. My goal is to find a community that can help me grow and, hopefully, give something back to it.
Lately, I've been interested in chatbots, conversational interfaces, microservices and blockchains, but I'm open to learn and talk about everything.
In the future, I would like to start writing my own articles, tutorials and guides.
Cheers! :)
Hello, I'm Chidindu.
I have a project in mind, I would like to embark on - A machine learning project. I am postponing starting this project because I feel there's a level of knowledge i have to acquire before I can begin writing anything related to Artificial Intelligence, since I started programming this year January. Is that a healthy thought?
