There was publications section on LinkedIn put your dev.to link there :)

I think for HR recruiters every bit of information about you helps..

If they see you are junior programmer but actively participating in this community and creating good content it will just be big plus for you :)

Yes I had my posts in publications and featured before this! The experience section is just the main part of a LinkedIn profile it seems, and is much more prominent than those other sections. I think even the publications section is one of the last, and you have to expand to see info, so it's easy to miss.

It's similar I guess to some people who recommend putting your coding bootcamp in your 'experience' section. Without one of these, my entire 'experience' section is non-technical.

I would guess it could get the job done while you don't have experience in IT field.. afterwards I would avoid it.. but that's my personal opinion..

Meanwhile while you are junior programmer without much of work experience that you can put on resume.. looks fine :) #goodluck

I completely agree with your Point of View. And What is your opinion for example 'bout a Senior Software Engineer with more than 10'yrs of experience?
Cause I'm starting here in dev.to yesterday. And my objective goal is that I thought "Is time to try to reserves sometime, and to expand sharing to all that I have been doing and updated for years in generalists areas". Cause so much of us Dev, certainly could be agregates value with knowledge and practices experiences.

Success!
