Hi Everyone,
I am a Computer Science major at Florida State University, and I am here to share, review, and learn new skills in Mobile Development, Machine learning, and general Software Development paradigms. Definitely looking forward to meeting new or like-minded learners and developers!
What's good James~? ✌🏿
Are you staying on campus at FSU? I'm nearby UCF in Orlando (applied maths and biz)
I look forward to work you'll accomplish in ML and app-development; as unofficial mathematician, I love how matrix calculus' making a comeback in programming; but as a Clojurist, frustrated Python dominates the scene with good semantic frameworks to jump into ML.
Do you have a language of choice for your projects or ~do you laugh at us over-opinionated developers~?
Hi Jffry,
Thanks for the message! I actually take my degree online through FSU's Distance Learning program, so while I am not on campus directly I still see the same degree material.
I definitely agree with you, Matrix algebra is an important concept to learn about when studying Machine Learning,
For a Software Engineering practice course I helped design a Car Detector for cyclists to use on the road, and before I was able to code it with Python I had to learn and do a bit of review of Linear Algebra (its been a while since I did Calculus 3 lol). Doing that really helped me better understand and conceptualize tensors, which is mainly what ML frameworks are built upon. I used PyTorch, which has a tutorial also on how to build an image classifier.
If you are interested in Machine Learning I definitely recommend using Python 3, and also learning Numpy if you would like to try using PyTorch.
I think even being at my senior year, there is still much for me to learn in terms of different programming languages and technologies. I learned OOP, and Data Structures with C++, and started my programming journey using ANSI C.
When studying CS, I always remind my friends that part of the effort comes with the interest of exposing yourself to new languages and concepts. The more you learn, the more you will improve and succeed! The best advice comes from devs in the field.

Hello Katie 🎠
Hey girrrrrrl! 🙆
🤣☝️🤙
Hey Katie!
Hello Willis.
Hello everyone. I've been reading posts from DEV.to from my news feed for a while now and decided to sign up to be able to follow people. I'm learning programming at the moment, but I've been in I.T. since 2007. Stopped my career to focus on having a family a couple of years ago and I'm aching to get back in the field. However, that most likely won't happen for another 2-3 years. (-_-) It may not happen at all if I decide to homeschool the kiddos. I'm taking everything one day at a time and hoping that I can actually get to where I want to be in my career.
Anywho, I'm excited for the future.
P.S. I'm a bit confused as to what the difference between Welcome Thread- v56 or v57 is. I would have thought there was only 1 welcome page everyone posted on. 🤷🏻♀️ Eh.
Oh man, I want to encourage you get back in the field but I also really loved being homeschooled as a kid. I don't think I would have gotten into tech otherwise.
Congrats on your growing family, either way I hope the future stays exciting 🎉
Welcome!
Developing your career while having young kids to take care of is a challenge, but I've found it in my case to be a huge win over time as it forced me to get more organized and really think more about priorities.
Taking it a day at of time is exactly the right way to go, and always keep in mind that progress compounds no matter how small you slice it up. 15-30 mins here and there a few times a week is still 1000x better than nothing.
If you could get to where you want to be in your career, what would that look like?
Yeah, I'm definitely unable to rush getting back into the swing of things because I have to focus on the kids. I've actually always wanted to own my own business and since security was my major and where I worked years ago, I guess that's where I feel a good goal is. I have a learning curriculum I would like to complete. Ultimately it leads to my original goal of security (pentesting) Right now I have 2 app projects I'd like to start. Or see in the future. So, long story short I'd like to have my own business or work on my own terms in anything IT security. I'm so~~~~ done interviewing for companies. I never want to interview ever again. Lol.
A big part of why I run my own business is to have the flexibility to decide how I want to balance things between work, personal interests, family responsibilities, etc and so I am a huge proponent of that approach for anyone who can do it!
Take tiny steps each week, and little by little you will get closer to your goals.
What works for me given that I am still pretty much on a part time schedule is to think on long time scales and compare where I am now to a couple years ago at any point in time, and that makes it easier to get through the days and weeks where all the rest of life seem to get in the way of anything work related.
Good luck, and happy business building!
With so many new members every day, the Welcome Thread gets very long. Could be over 1000 in just a week depending on traffic. Every couple of weeks a new one is created to make scrolling through it manageable.
Either way, welcome to DEV where you will find lots of friendly coders to help you with any questions you might have.
We are excited to have you here!
Hi,
I am a 28 year old man from The Netherlands.
I started my dev-path at development basic programming for Windows 3.1 as a 6 year ild kid. Moved to web development with PHP and vanilla JS 15 years ago as a teenager. And while I was studying for a Bachelor in Sports & Movement I transferred to Python to do complex tasks (Statistical Movement Analysis for top athletes for example).
Later on I started working for a data-minded and tech-driven online advertising company which allowed me to expand my Python skills and extend my frontend skills towards ReactJS and SASS.
Nowadays I am a Product Owner with a focus on User Experience, Brand building and Team Dynamics. There is not much room for coding in my day to day job but I love to code a bit from time to time. Especially if that helps the software engineers in the team.
I hope to enjoy some discussions here. I am more of a reader than a online debater, but you may see a comment with my name on it from time to time.
Enjoy!
That is quite a path! I was lucky like you to have a computer as a child. I liked BASIC and Visual Basic. I would love to password protect a silly program and have people try to “hack” it. 😄
What kinds of things did you build as a kid?
Thanks for your reply!
As a kid I started with a simple calculator for windows 3.1. I have always had a passion for the combination of backend operations combined with an easy-to-use frontend. Even as a kid, although I did not knew what it meant.
Later on I made small text-based games. When I switched to web development I made a platform for athletes to find their match results automatically (in The Netherlands there is/was no true centralized platform that offered all your personal results across multiple games). That attracted about 5k monthly active users. After which my lack of knowledge (as a teenager) of infrastructure and devops came to light. So I killed the platform and began to focus on small automations for me personally.
Hello
Hi!
What's up Kristof
Hi here 🙌
I'm Leo, I come from a frontend background, worked in cool startups such as Aircall in Paris!
Ten I quickly moved toward having my own business, currently running hyperping.io and quickmetrics.io, which are bootstrapped (and profitable) companies. Lots of technical challenges, mostly devops, which I'm having fun doing (more than frontend 😁)
Love doing optimization in response time, making thing blazing fast fascinates me 🤓
Keen to share what I've learned in the past years!
Thanks @daolf for pushing me in joining dev.to, finally took the leap!
Welcome Léo! It's great to have you here!
That sounds amazing! How have you changed from working as a developer to your own company?
Hi Pablo!
I've always wanted to go on my own. As soon as I landed my first job I tried to learn as much as I could and apply every single bit of new knowledge into a side project that will eventually become my full time gig since April of last year!
Now grinding it 💪
Are you also working on your own or considering it?
Hello
Hey Leo, Great to e-meet you. I have gone through a similar process and I think there are a lot of learnings that we can share with each other on the journey. Keep in touch
Hi all! I'm Ania and I've been in IT for almost a decade as a QA. Recently I left my job to focus on learning Web Development more in depth and transition to a DEV job in the near future. Double challenge: I'm used to working remotely and would like to continue being a digital nomad when I go into development. Fingers crossed!
Hi Ania, I'm Katie, one of the basic moderators.
It's great to see more woman who code 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.
Look around, make comments and ask questions. You will find that everyone is really helpful here.
Good luck with your future as a digital nomad, sounds great!
We need more women in our industry! I hope everything goes well for you!
Thank you!
Hi Ania.
Did you always want to be a developer, or did you get the bug from meeting people in your QA roles?
I always wanted to code, learned a bit at uni, but didn't think I would enjoy a dev job. QA kept me happy for a long time though, but then I thought that I can work on my dev skills, start working as a dev and then decide if I want to stay or go back to QA:)
Hi Everyone
My name is Patience Okoro currently undergoing training on Web development, and I am here to share, review, and learn new skills in web development, Machine learning, and general Software Development paradigms. Definitely looking forward to meeting new or like-minded learners and developers!
👋 hello!
Hello Patience! I think we're on the same page here :)
Hello, I'm Andrew. I'm in Brooklyn, NY. I'm learning to code and I think I can really do it this time!
I found the best way to learn was to get the basics out of the way then try to build something you don't know how to build yet, and make the subject something you're passionate about. You'll struggle to NOT code and learn if it's the right project!
If you need help brainstorming, let me know.
You can definitely do it!!
I think you can do it, too.
Welcome Andrew!
And I am cheering for you !
I am sure you can do it !
Hi Everyone..............

Hey y'all! I'm Izzy - I found dev community by following Vaidehi Joshi on twitter (BaseCS video series and podcast) and decided to check it out. I'm a software developer in Seattle, and I'm here to learn, network, and make friends :)
Welcome!!!!
thank you Jess!
Hola Everyone,
I am a Software Engineer from Mumbai who loves to play with new technologies. I am here to learn and share my experiences and skills with you all. In today's date where there are a lot of new things coming in the tech world, it has become important to be a part of a developer community that keeps us updated.
I always believe in Code, Learn and Teach. All this had helped me to improvise and enhance my skills. Looking forward to learning from amazing developers and likewise doing the same. :)
Hello Everyone!
I'm Orlando, from Venezuela, working to make a career change from IT support to programming. Started with Codecademy's Computer Science Path, then finished CS50 course last week, and started CS50W; it's been a lot of fun over the past 8 months self-learning. Since collaboration is key in this world, i'm willing to share what i've learned with you, and hopefully start building a network of like-minded people. Happy coding!
Howdy! I'm starting web programming courses this Summer through Wisconsin's technical college. I'm currently teaching art in a public school and have been teaching myself to code in my free time. I am not quite sure where I am going to focus yet, but am really enjoying css and html so far.
Welcome Katie. An artistic background is really helpful for designing beautiful web pages (it’s the part I lack!)
Next step is to learn JavaScript which will make things more dynamic. That’s more of the logic part that will feel like a new world!
Good luck on your coding journey. Remember that we are all here to help you with any questions you might have.
Hello everyone!
I'm beginning my programming journey, everything I know up this far is self taught. I went to school for IT but I do love programming when I can. I decided to take the programming path seriously. I'm dabbling alot with the Python web-framework Flask and libraries like SQLAlchemyORM DB interactions.
This stuff is not easy but its so much fun!
I'm very much looking forward to meeting new people to learn from and eventually create new friendships.
Hi everyone. My name is Jen, I'm a front end engineer and I've worked at the BBC in MediaCity, Salford for over 2 years. Originally I started at a PHP software agency but have transitioned to JavaScript/front end. This is my first time joining an online community so please be nice! Thanks for reading
Hey there!
This is Adi. I read about the dev.to community on my feed recently, in the path of searching for professionals worth to follow on twitter. I want to reach out to people whom I can learn a lot from in the field of CS. During the past week I tried to browse through all the beginner friendly content of the site and I found the community quite friendly, especially since I don't have much experience with coding (I mainly grow apples and other eco fruits for a living 😆).
I have always been interested in the IT scene, even if being not more than the local computer guy you can always turn for help 😉
Recently I had the chance to make an extensive travel to the other side of the planet and explore different cultures and visiting places I only read about before, which encouraged me to step out of my comfort zone and challenge the way I think about the world comparing to what I am accustomed to.
Anyway, part of this process, I decided to broaden my knowledge in the field of tech with the help of online course materials (Freecodecamp, CS50) which I am about to start and hopefully by the support of fellow learners and more experienced devs I could possibly meet here.
Even reading the articles and comments on this site made me wanna be part of this community.. so nice to meet you and keep up the good work 🙏
Cheers 🌻
Hi! I am from Brazil, but currently living in Los Angeles.
I am frontend developer for the last 3 years only, after a career change made possible but freeCodeCamp and other free online resources.
Welcome to DEV!
Hey! I've known about this for a while now and never really spent the time to come and take a look, seems like a good source to get my fix on different interesting topics! I hope to sometime contribute as well, anyways... hi :D
Hello everyone! I am in my last semester graduating on physics in Brasília, Brazil. But coding is increasingly taking my attention. Started as a hobby, moved towards a tool and I aim to take it to professional level. I've made some "science-coding", but my goal by now is to do some webdev!
Hey everyone.
I am a product manager at Gelato.com - who has been working with code since 1998 - and is still solving problems using code. What I love about coding is that you need to learn the something new all the time, otherwise you get stuck in the past. Look forward to meeting, reading and learning from you all.
Hi,
I am a Data Engineer in Sao Paulo, Brazil. I am new here trying learn and share date and programming skills.
I am 35 and started developing small web applications with PHP. Soon I started working with Oracle PL/SQL and got a Oracle DBA job. During this time I've worked with lots of ETL and data tools, so I ended up working as a data engineer. After some years with ETL, I'm now developing the kubernetes data infrastructure (Spark, Airflow, Data lake, etc). Looking forward to be a part of DEV community.
Hello Dev World!

Hello.
Hello humans,
Name is "Mickey" and I come from Serbia (Novak Djokovic's fatherland) I have 15yrs. of working experience in website and web-application development, old-school and probably one of the seniors in this community. Linux evangelist, "CLI by Default"(Terminal is my middle name :) and open source ambassador of the world. Love code-problems and difficult situations and also love to customize absolutely everything, specially if CLI is available to tweak it even more :)
Hope I can pass my knowledge and advice on any topic from my branch to new programmers and juniors and also get one if I need it.
cheers to all, even bots and scripts that run in BG :)
Hey everyone,
I am a tech lead working for Vodafone in the UK. I'm here to learn interesting subjects outside my normal skillset and hopefully help share some knowledge! I've been working in web development for the past 10 years primarily using Java for all of that time with 5 years of doing React.
Ok... this social network looks promising! Never thought of myself writing a random post in a social network again in my life. Let's see how it goes!
I am pretty much contributing to OSS these days... also I manage some people at IBM Brazil and deliver some code to some IBM clients. Pretty standard stuff...
I actually wrote a post on medium that got curated and people actually read it! HAHAHAHA
You can go check it out at:
medium.com/@abilio.esteves/white-b...
Cheers!
That was a good post Abilio. When I onboarded and integrated Graphite/Grafana at my last job for system and production monitoring, we derived some value for having visibility into request latency and queue sizes. However, we weren't able to forecast problems and our metrics were only indicators of problems and not diagnostics of them. I found your general framework of the use and purpose of metrics lucid and I will keep it in mind for future monitoring needs.
I am glad to be here,i hope to enrich my knowledge here,i am here to learn more about react.js.
Glad to have you here too Qozim (wanna donate a phonetic-spelling of your name?) 😵
I personally have a love/hate relationship with
React.jsbut it's grown on me enough to appreciate it's appropiate use cases: here's a super-loaded cheatsheet for all things React I love.Hope to see great things from you as your knowledge and networking bases enriches and expands. ✌🏿
Thanks jffry am pleased to a part of this community, with great mind like you.we all shall grow to achieve the peak of our chosen career
I am barnabas a New one here. I am learning computer science in DRC, so am here to have more about programming with your help. I use .net for programming and a few Java because I am a beginner in that language.
Thank u
Hi there
I'm a control systems developer and Roboticist, and surely AI lover :)
I'm going to chain control systems and machine learning on the robots and teach them think and act like humans ;)
Nice to be here guys.
Hey crazy geeks,
I am full stack developer, WordPress is my key language. I am always ready to learn and explore the development world. One thing that i have learnt in past few years that you can't learn coding and expert on it by reading books or just watching tutorials, it the people who shares knowledge and you adopt the ideas and implement it and learn something from that rhen you start growing.
So let's begin the journey and exchanges some knowledge.
Thanks.
Hi Everyone,
I am learning JavaScript, Node.js, PHP(Wordpress) at home. I joined this group to keep myself motivated for coding. I am taking Udemy courses, did a Node.js certification from ComIT. My background was in Electronics and Communication Engineering. I worked at IBM India as a Service Delivery Specialist. Now, I am living in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada and aspire to get Junior web developer jobs.
VanDim from Toronto Canada. Happy to be part of the community. I am taking CS50 with David Mulan at the moment and along the way fall in love with web development among other subjects.....I am a freelance at the moment but looking forward to be part of a team.

I'm Cody. I've decided to look for a platform where I can discuss some stuff on my mind in a productive manner. I'm always looking to learn more and have come across a number of good articles here so I want to contribute now.
Hi, I'm Nikki! I'm a Junior Web Developer and have been studying online since 2015. I'm really in to FreeCodeCamp and Udemy at the moment, but have completed other paths as well (Codecademy, Udacity, Google Codelabs). I'm also a mother of 5 (3 kids and 2 puppers). I love CSS, Sass, front end frameworks, Node, and have a huge interest in making the web more accessible. Why? I've had epilepsy most of my life, including photosensitive seizures. An accessible site with just the right amount of color contrast, typography, and flow can make the difference in whether or not I keep clicking.
My goal is to make accessibility my focus; to produce usable, asthetically pleasing yet responsive websites.
I'm looking forward to learning more, refining my skills, and connecting with like-minded developers!
welcome Nikky, i find your background very impressive. A willingness to learn, an ability to make time while being a mother of 5, someone who understands the need for accessibility deep inside her.
I hope you will write about the subject here!
Greetings from Russia!
I am a junior full-stack ruby on rails developer (docker, rails, react+ts).
Found out about this site from habr(a small russian alternative of this project).
Hope to have a good time here and develop with you!

Hey there, peeps
I'm a recent Computer Science grad with a passion for science, tech, and all things art. Got a wide variety of interests and skills - sometimes afraid I spread myself out too thin - but currently stuck in limbo trying to start a career in Web Dev. I'm really into web design and front-end/UX but also trying to know my way around the full stack.
Seen a lot of posts from Dev.to in my Google now feed and under some searches and I don't remember why exactly but I ended up on the signup page recently. Great community! Looking forward to learn and share.
Q: Are the diff welcome threads just to keep the threads current?
Hello ladies and gentlemen!
I am completely new to the ITO field. I live in a small town and we recently opened our first IT center here. I went through an 8week long bootcamp and Absolutely fell in love with code. Straight out of bootcamp I had the opportunity to provide Quality Assurance, mostly writing fitness test with a big focus on restful api testing, and was lucky to spend a lot of time with a super tight-nit supportive team. I recently changed clients, and while I'm excited for the new tools and technologies and being able to work towards becoming a full stack dev, I am also insanely nervous! I spend a lot of time doing my own research so feel free to drop me a line of anything! something to google, a web site, a book, an app, just words of advice.. all is very appreciated!
hello guys, just found this forums from a post of a famous developer on FB. I've getting bored with FB for a long time and looking for new places like Quora or Medium. This place is awesome !!! Hope everyone will find out some fun (and helpful things) here :)

Hi everyone. I love that this app is available! My goal is to bring any value I can and give back when I can. When I started out in this profession, outlets like this seemed non-existent. Watching platforms grow over the years makes me want to make sure I do my part to be involved.
Hi Everyone,

Hello all.
My name is Nacho. I came across dev.to a few weeks ago but only now got time to really check it out. Really loving the content it has so far!
I am in the #cybersecurity field and program mostly for fun. I specialize in using technology for process improvements and simplifications -- with whatever tool I have available. Lately I have been doing a lot of Google Apps Script development in the enterprise space to automate complex workflows.
I want to start blogging tutorials and guides for using #GAS in the enterprise space to help those who are just starting out in their #automation adventures. I've put some feelers out there and it sounds like there is a demand for this kind of content. Which is what led me to dev.to. I can't settle on a good blogging platform. It seems most folks use Medium or ITNEXT but then a lot of folks hate those platforms too. I don't want to self-host.
So I'm wondering how the dev.to community feels about using dev.to as a blogging platform compared to sites like Medium/ITNEXT. Obviously dev.to is great but are there any unobvious gotchas I should know?
Any/all feedback is greatly appreciated.
Hi Everyone, great to find your community looking forward to learning and contribute. I’m a member of the Dot Net Foundation. I found this community after making suggestions on a post about the unfortunate loss of Scott Allen and his personal blog being shut down. I stated that there is a need for a forum similar to stack-overflow that doesn’t rely on a maintainer. I believe that content should be archived and with that I was informed of this community by our members that I was unaware of.
I run a .Net community group in Liverpool England so feel free to reach out if you’d like to get involved.
Joshua
Welcome to the community! I learned that I used to live in the same city as Scott Allen, it was a little upsetting to me that I never got a chance to meet him when I was right there.
I'm a Leeds native but made my way to the US, but if you are interested in working to preserve .NET content specifically I would be happy to help.
Hi all, this is Tapesh here, I work as developer and new to this platform, I'm mostly working as web developer and application developer, platforms majorly working currently on power apps. Anyone with experience in Power apps please let me know. Thanks

Hi,
I'm a coder. At work I am working with integrations with payment devices. At home I like to solve algorithm challenges on codewars, read dev books (like Clean Code), and write about what I learned.
I love unit testing, refactoring, and pragmatism.
Hi everyone!
I currently am a Computer Science Student in the US. Also doing Web Development in the side. Looking forward to learning and helping each other and also meet people in the same field!
I've been having a difficult time staying consistent, as I switched my major a year ago. I've had many ups and downs, some days I'm coding and some days I give up. It's hard staying in one place and learning when a took a year off from school after getting burnt out from Pre-Med 2 years ago, then found out what field I actually like and came back in the beginning of 2019. I started a blog, Hiba Codes (@hibacodes ) as well where I've been sharing my struggles in the journey and motivational tips/resources what's helping me continue.
Hello everyone,

I'm hoping to stay close to software development as long as I'm able too. Cheers!
Hi I’m looking for a complete career change having been a small business owner for the last 13 years. I’ve just completed a 15 week ‘Journey into Tech‘ course with Tech Returners. I’m now looking for that first role. Huge amount of transferable skills from corporate and SME experience.
Hi all and I'm excited to join the Dev community!
I am a CS graduate from the USA (California) working in industry for the past 3 years and am ready to take software seriously after only using code as a means for machine learning and image analysis. I'm recognizing that making use of a conceptual understanding of algorithms and models is severely hampered by an inexperience w/ writing and using good software. My first forays into changing this has shown me that software as a discipline is deeper than meets the eye and am excited to learn about what has and hasn't worked. This will be a journey.
My first steps have seen me looking under the hood of Emacs, (something I'd only been using as a tool up til now -- now's it's a rich learning opportunity), reading Structure and Interpretation of Programming Languages (went over my head the first time. It's making much more sense now!) and writing libraries for my job. I'm taking baby steps slicing and dicing my own data and on the look out in the open source community for scientific software, tools, and languages. There's no point reinventing the wheel, but I definitely want to know how to change a tire. I hope my upskilling will let me be more productive in development and research settings.
Besides code and software, I pay attention to machine learning, statistics, and probability. I'm also picking up electronics, biology, physics, mathematics and Unity one piece at a time.
I'm looking forward to learning with all of you. We're in this together!
I am here as a student to learn more on back end web development. I think I'm still at beginners level in writing code but I want to make sure I become a senior dev in back end dev before the year runs out
