As a new Dev.to user and collectible fan, the first moment I found out about the badges, I knew I want to collect them ALL!
I found a list of them on https://dev.to/badges but decided to make it more friendly to new users (and added a few words on how to get each of them)
Unfortunately not every badge is attainable anymore π

Gotta catch 'em all
I got a rare one! π€£
Wow neat!
For everybody's info we do plan on adding more technology badges to the ones we have. We picked some popular tags to start.
Likely everyone is seeing badges they feel are missing.
We have a few other badges coming too.
And the Pusher badges cannot be achieved because it was a one time contest. Very rare π
is there a possibility to contribute with badges as PR?
Yes, we have contributions such as this one...
[WIP]Adding two more milestones for DEV contributor badge. #4007
What type of PR is this? (check all applicable)
Description

Added to documentation?
[optional] What gif best describes this PR or how it makes you feel?
For existing badge issue. Feel free to open an issue for a hypothetical badge. We don't currently have an explicit process for the design portion of badges, but now that you mention it I'll work to come up with one.
Oddly, my account is now 1.5 years old and I never seem to have received the 1 year club badge. Are there other requirements for it?
Yeah, my inner .NET and TypeScript developer had a sad.
I have 9, none of the exclusives that you can't get anymore, and this list is now gonna haunt me!
Why did you do this to me?!?!
We're really interested in doing more contests and other one-time things like this, just haven't gotten around to it!
But yes, nobody will be able to collect everything. We may want to come up with a way to distinguish these types of badges.
P.S. we have a new badge page, not yet totally finalized in design...

Nice :) Knowing what is out there is fun. Iβm currently trying to get all the JS badges. Angular down, Vue, React and JS to go!
I already earned hacktoberfest badge and redeemed it, but where do i find it in my profile?
I have a question about the 4 week badge, as I haven't received it and I have published for each of the last 7 weeks.
I'll be waiting for the Dart, Android, and Flutter badge. #TeamMobile π
I have started my journey with DEV.to in this month. Hope, I will get cool badge soon.

just to point out the php badge has the python text copy pasted to it.
Cheers for a great informative post.
Good catch, fixed!
Haha, I think I was in the top 7 two times, once even 1st. But I didn't get one of theae tech specific badges π€
They're pretty new
And I thought I was doing pretty well with four badges! Good post
