I really thought a website dedicated to software development-oriented publishing and community would be a good idea and that people would like it. So I made it and wrote a post.
I still think interviews are a great type of article. You learn so much by doing them and people are super accessible in this industry. I moved on to other types of content but highly encourage others to consider interviews!

I started with interviews
First ever DEV post:
Christopher Chedeau on the Core Philosophies that Underlie React
Ben Halpern

😲 2016! 😲
That's awesome. I believe I got here after running into one of @thepracticaldev 's #SheCoded in 2017 on a Twitter thread and got hooked ever since.
Now I gotta read that interview 🤓
I had been running the Twitter account and I was home for the holidays when I had the inspiration for the whole thing that became dev.to.
Then I went to my computer and typed
rails new😇As you can see by that date it was only about 10 days before the first post was published.
