A quick trip down memory lane:

I remember how happy I was when DEV announced they had opened up their source code last August, I immediately jumped at the opportunity to collaborate. I just checked on GitHub and my first PR is dated exactly one day after that 😅

Automatically check vulnerabilities before deployment #303

What type of PR is this? (check all applicable)

  • [ ] Refactor
  • [X] Feature
  • [ ] Bug Fix

Description

bundler-audit is a well known tool that helps keeping an eye on known vulnerabilities.

I think passing its check should be a pre-requisite for each build.

Related Tickets & Documents

Mobile & Desktop Screenshots/Recordings (if there are UI changes)

Added to documentation?

  • [ ] docs.dev.to
  • [ ] readme
  • [X] no documentation needed

A few months passed and they had graciously accepted in the code the 50th PR:

Around a couple of months later I ended up joining the team.

I can't thank enough the DEV team and their core values. This website I'm writing this comment on being open is a part of those values.

If you're in doubt, know that any contribution is welcome: ideas, bug reports, frontend and backend code, documentation, point of views on existing features and even "moonshots"

Don't hold back 😅

With about 75 PRs under your belt by then, safe to say we felt pretty good about your ability to contribute. 😄

We all thought you were in the core team long before you got the offer 😉
