Welcome!

I'm using some of my separation pay to take my family to Disney this September. We've booked through a friend who handles everything. All I wanted out of my first experience was to not make decisions. Ha!

We're staying six nights at the Villas in Animal Kingdom, and we are only looking to hit two or three parks instead of rushing around trying to fit it all in. At her recommendation, we're also spending one day just at the resort.

I wasn't immediately excited about the idea. My son will be 2 and a half, so I'm not sure how much of the experiences will be lost on him. My teenager is creeped out by people dressed up as characters. None of us enjoy thrill rides.

Then I decided to take my parents to spend time with their grandkids. Now I'm excited! I've even heard that it's a pretty decent place for beer lovers and foodies in general. Any secrets you want to pass along?

andy profile image
Andy Zhao (he/him)

Yeah! I've been working on veggie burgers recently. It's been a real uphill battle for me though. The hard part is getting them to shape properly; mine patty just comes out sticky and hard to fry.

Otherwise it's been a lot of practicing basic knife skills like mincing garlic, slicing onions, and also cutting down meal prep times less. I think I've made pancakes for like three weeks straight, pretty much every other day. Definitely have the recipe memorized and can make it really quickly now!

I spent this past weekend making chickpeas, and I oversalted them. It was a good lesson because through the process I figured out how to desalinize them.

He wants to develop a game. As of right now he has just followed tutorials and made games. I am trying to understand how all this works and hope to get some good information as to how I can help my son and direct him in the right way as to what he should do learn first and what Systems he should play with. He knows a lot but needs something easy to follow and learn. Any help is appreciated.

Hey Hoidberg! That's super awesome of you to go above and beyond for your kiddo like this and really try to become a part of the community!

I think a lot of us got into development to build games, I'm glad to see gaming has sparked an interest in programming for another young developer.

While I'm not as well versed in game development specifically, I'm happy to talk about programming and algorithms in general and talk through problems if either of you want to!

James Stone

My name is James and I was introduced to dev.to by @hamatti and I am looking forward to doing more technical writing and interacting with the community. Recently I have been focused on TypeScript, React, Redux, Functional Programming, a bit of Elm, Electron, Docker and some Python/Flask.

I would consider myself an ambivert. An extravert that needs a fair amount of alone time to site alone, deep in though, processing the world and what has happened, ideally in the middle of the forest in Finland or an island, or wherever I can find some silence from the noise.

Recently I have been interested in early programming languages such as Fortran and Lisp and using modern tools like Docker to use them. Fun fact: my mom taught me to program in Basic in 2nd grade on an Atari 600XL.

I'm Alex. I'm a full-stack software engineer based in London. I've worked across multiple languages and paradigms, but what I'm most interested in right now is how you do the minimum code to get the maximum value. Very much of the philosophy 'Make it work; make it right; make it fast.', after a few years trying to make it right before it works, hah! Clean Code and The Clean Coder are my favourite dev books, though I'm always interested in improving my craft.

I've talked a few times around London and hope to become a world famous functional programmer. Unfortunately, things never change on the functional programming scene.

Hey y'all...

I'm a self-taught hack of sorts. I like to call myself a shady tree developer. When I want to learn something, I seek out knowledge. Started out learning early classic asp then moved on to dotnet all the way to Obj-c and Swift, I kicked myself in the butt to learn it.

I will probably get some terminology wrong (like variadic...) but I won't take offense if you correct me. That's part of learning.

My career has me in a dotnet world and also Netsuite which is why most of my (or all) stuff os focused in Netsuite. Not a lot of info so I want to help others.

I've been following Dev.To on twitter and liked the discussions and suggestions. I write code - designation and languages keep changing though :-). Hope to add to the platform and learn more.

I'm not good at writing articles/blogs (introvert), hope to get feedback to improve myself.

I'm new here, but not new to development. I'm a former "full stack" developer turned UI engineer. I specialize in React, I know, not very unique πŸ˜‰. I was very into personal branding and great at networking for awhile, then had kids, went through some burnout, and have had a hard time getting back into the swing of networking. This looks like a fun community, and I'm looking forward to checking it out more and hopefully sharing here as well as on my blog.

In my spare time I've been into tinkering with synthesizers (especially with the open source VCV Rack software-based modular synth); I'm not great at making music, but love playing with all the different sounds you can make by modifying an electrical signal.

In answer to the question above, I used to consider myself an extravert, but I've since learned I'm actually an introvert and need to take time to myself often otherwise I will burn out.

I'm currently focused on front-end web development, and building beautiful, seamless user interfaces. I have no experience whatsoever as the only projects I've worked on are the ones found in code-along articles and online tutorials. However, I'm 'starting at a start-up' (place chuckle here) as an intern next week and hope to get my hands dirty on some real projects real soon(throw some my way if you can, thanks). I've been learning react for about three weeks now, it's been intellectually rewarding. My biggest challenge so far is learning to think like a programmer and a designer, I know I'm just starting and can't rush the process but urgh! It gets frustrating just knowing syntax and not knowing how to logically think through problems properly. Happy to be here though, and I hope to grow into a proficient, reliable, developer!πŸ”₯πŸ’ͺπŸ™πŸ™

Hello hello! Just about to finish a full-stack (MERN) coding bootcamp at Northwestern University in Chicago and starting to look for ways to remain active and connected to the developer community beyond class.

Going into the program, I knew full well I would prefer back-end over front-end as I am much more logic driven than creative, and that has certainly proven to be the case. With that said, will always be looking for resources to continue to refine and polish my front-end skills .

We are currently working on our final projects which I am making what will actially be my best-friends website for his upcoming wedding in Hawaii.

Skills learned so far: version control (with hit and GitHub), deployment with Heroku, HTML, CSS, Bootsrap 4, JavaScript, jQuery, Firebase (database and authentication), Moment.js, node.js, express.js, passport.js (authentication), Handlebars (templates), MySQL, Sequelize ORM, mongoDb, Mongoose ORM, and react.js.

For my project, I am actually also learning/using: TypeScript, Material-UI, Nest.js as an alternative to express, as well as unit testing with jest and enzyme.

I’m so happy to have finally found something not only am I good at, but I love doing!

What I would like to learn next: Vue

I'm Bastion, a frontend developer that works mostly in React at this point, but I try to keep a wide breadth of experience and interest in new technologies.

I stumbled across dev.to when I was looking for a good blogging platform to get better at technical writing and keep a pulse on up and coming ideas and technologies.

For fun facts, I'm also a competitive West Coast Swing dancer! I travel all around the US dancing and teaching when I'm not busy programming!

Hi there!
I'm new here, but I'm also fairly new to development! I wanted to do this for a long time but didn't, because of 'reasons', until I figured out the only reason was me being a chicken. So I jumped! Fast forward a year and I can call myself a frontend developer at the age of 30.
Because my journey is still ongoing, I'd like to learn a lot more, meet a lot of people and see where it takes me: I'm part of this community!
Oh yeah, I would say a social introvert or an ambivert. I don't mind talking to people, but it takes away all my energy.

Hi everyone!

I'm very new to the whole Development community, until 2 months ago I was a Carpenter living in New Zealand, who was studying Ruby on Treehouse,
In December I moved to Los Angeles to get married, and am now working for Bullet Train as a Apprentice-Developer. Using my lack of knowledge to help troubleshoot our product for Code Newbies like myself, at the same time to ramp up my knowledge and abilities!

It's an extremely exciting change and I'm hoping to use dev.to as a means of documenting my journey so that others who want to learn have a step-by-step as an example!

Not sure entirely when I'll start blogging but I'd really appreciate any feedback when that happens πŸ˜„

Hello Everyone,

Hope each of you are doing well. I'm a generalist developer and like dabbling with everything from css to linux kernel. Apart from code, I love Comics, Music and Movies, so much so that I'm writing one in my free time! In the past I've written several articles and a book on Rails.

I want to learn app development and k8s this year and maybe make more commits to open source projects. Also, I love food, always happy to talk about any of these things πŸš€πŸ˜€.

I learned about this community via cppcast #124.

I do research on quantum gravity to determine fun things like the fate of the universe, horizons, and topology change (e.g. wormholes).

Along the way, I wrestle with writing correct, performant simulations.

I do Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for stress relief.

I'm an introvert.

Hi there!
Swedish software developer here. Working mainly with full stack (.NET + JS) webdev in the energy industry. I've been reading some really great articles on DEV so I decided I better join the community/platform myself. I've soon been working for three years since I finished my bachelor (although it was in electrical engineering / embedded systems, but I was freelancing with webdev alongside my studies).

At the moment I'm working a lot with Vue.js. So let me know if you've got any questions, perhaps about using Vue.js together with legacy web apps for example.

When it comes to non-tech stuff I sing a lot and also play a couple of different flutes.
