I don't speak hindi, however, I think you will help other people, you show empathy, so I hope you do it.
Maybe consider doing both versions if possible.
Even if I don't benefit at all personally, I think you have a chance to improve the lives of thousands of people.
Focus on the parts which will be most useful for your audience.
I won't understand anything, but I hope you enjoy creating the content!
ps, if you share your articles with me, I can share them with my team :)

Thank you for your kind words. I would love to try to write in both english and hindi language, but I don't know if dev.to supports translated content feature.
Looks like I need to translate same blog post in english and then republish. But problem with this is it will create two blogs with same title.

Do you know of this feature ?

Simply link from one to the other at the beginning of the article so readers can self-segment, no?

Yes, I did the same on my own blog. I will try and do the same here.

What @dataf3l said. Even people who are well versed in English might prefer to read in their native language.
