Hello there,
I am a programmer, and not so long ago I felt the desire to learn how to make good presentations and videos for my projects - I created an YouTube channel, and gradually I learn how to record sound, make videos, etc. It's funny... Really 😁
I am overwhelmed with the desire to create something new, so I decided to also join DEV.to and share the text versions for you.

Nice to meet you πŸ‘

Hi everyone!

Welcome to the dev.to-community!

I'm Martin, and I worked as a Senior Front End Architect and Engineering Manager at one of the world's largest digital agencies, where I led Front End Teams for international projects. After 15 years, I quit my job. Now I travel the world as a professional scuba diver, work as a freelance Front End Tech Lead and technical Recruiter for international clients. Besides that, I write about technology.

My latest book about Modern Full Stack development will be published in the beginning of next year by No Stach Press. It's an easy, hands-on introduction to creating web applications with Next.js, MongoDB and Mongoose (there's currently a 25% Discount!). You can read more about how to become a published author in my upcoming article about writing books.

I am mentoring fellow developers on another platform as well as on dev.to. I am currently publishing the "LevelUp: Elevate your Career Today" series where I give Career and Interview advice based on my experience as Engineering Manager and Technical Recruiter. (It's bascially free mentoring, don't tell my paying mentees about that :D)

If I have enough time, I write more in-depth articles, for example how to create multi-language pages with next export, which is on GitHub:next-export-i18n and npmjs: next-export-i18n


I recommend following the general tags webdev, vscode , career and productivity and javascript, react, CSS. Head over to your Dashboard and adjust the tag weight to personalize your home feed.


Here's a list of articles to start your journey as a successful developer and a great writer:


If you are looking for your next job, I highly recommend buying the Book De-Coding the Technical Interview Process by Emma Bostian. It is hands down the best preparation for every technical interview.


If you're interested in my articles, follow me on dev.to/martinkr or twitter.com/_martinkr.

If you have questions or want to get in touch, don't hesitate to contact me on dev.to/martinkr.

And remember to start posting today!

Cheers!

What an awesome message! Appreciate you dropping so many great resources. That book by Emma sounds super helpful! πŸ™Œ

Also, traveling the world as a professional scuba diver sounds incredible! I imagine you're getting to experience some really beautiful places.

I look forward to what I achieve in the near future with the help of this community.

I wish you success. To get useful information or advice, it is also important to be able to distinguish good articles from bad ones. This is probably the most important thing to advise. And considering that there are a lot of people here who write a bunch of meaningless articles, I advise you to be more careful, vigilant and critical of everything. Also, do not neglect to read the comments under the articles, you can often find useful or complementary information there. Well, it's not worth adding a bunch of articles to bookmarks, because you'll probably be too lazy to read them anyway. Save only what you are really interested in, not paying attention only to the title.

Hello there!
I'm excited to join this vibrant community. I am a Systems Engineer (infrastructure not development), I've decided to delve into the world of blogging to enhance my technical writing skills. Through my blog, I aim to create accessible guides that facilitate both learning and teaching, covering tasks that are a little less common in my day-to-day work.

At the moment, I'm actively engaged in expanding my knowledge of software engineering and aspiring to transition into a role within that domain. I have a series of upcoming posts in the pipeline, where I'll be sharing insights on the topics I'm currently exploring.

Looking forward to connecting with fellow developers here and embarking on this enriching journey together!

Hello. I'm the old fart in the group. I started at age 6 learning BASIC on a Heathkit H89, then worked my way up to Apple Pascal on a ][e, followed by Turbo Pascal on an 80286 PC in High School. I learned C++ in college I've been doing embedded C/C++ development since. Around 2015 I found myself not writing code anymore and instead doing only project management stuff. I missed coding. And 2020 made me realize I need to get back to it.

The past couple of years I've been trying to ramp up on all this new stuff, learning JS/TS, HTML/CSS, React, Vue.js, Express, PHP, Go, Python, Rust, etc. The more I learn, the more I realize how much more I don't know. I created an account on here a while back just to be able to easily save a few pages. Can you teach an old dog new tricks? I guess I'm finding out. I still have at least 10 years left before I can think about hanging my hat up. I've got bills to pay and teenagers to feed.

Hello there! dev people, I don't know why but I never created an account here, it seems such awesome community after finding out how it works. I hope I will be able to write hopefully okayish technical blogs which are interesting, some low level some just random things I found during some random adventures.

Either way I will be able to learn and share in this platform.
