Hi everyone! 👋🏼 I've been thinking about going back to personal blogging for a long time, and I was really looking forward to getting started in Dev.to. Thrilled to be part of this community!

I'm Juan Luis (he/him), currently working as Developer Advocate for Kedro, an opinionated open source data science framework, and before that I've worked as developer advocate, trainer, developer, consultant... always with Python technology. The Python community has been a huge part of who I am professionally and personally, and I've been lucky to travel around the world attending and speaking at Python events.

I'll be blogging occasionally here about documentation tools, developer advocacy, the Python community... usually mixed with topics that attract me a lot like decentralized social communities, future of work, the solidarity economy, cooperatives, and more. Check out my first blog post about Futuristic documentation systems in Python.

Cheers 🍻

Hiya there! 👋 I've been thinking about writing articles for a while, and my experience opened up opportunities to share what I learned. So, I've decided to join dev.to community!

I'm Di(nara), but people have issues with my name pronunciation, so, you can call me Di. I'm currently working as NoSQL DBA, but before switching to my current role I was also developer and even tried to launch a product in a little company!

Check out my first post about databases r&d part, where I'll try to give you a few thoughts about database importance in your project.

Cheers!

Hi folks, I'm a Director of DevRelations & Ops at bytewax, a small OSS driven startup, our mission is to make python native data streaming more accessible. I love creating strong developer communities and empowering developers to build amazing things. I firmly believe that community is the lifeblood of businesses, especially if it's SaaS or built around OSS.
Even outside of my work, I am passionate about creating more equitable and inclusive communities. So I devote time to studying sustainable urbanism and exploring how technology can help shape better neighborhoods. It is my belief that building equitable and prosperous communities is critical to improving people's lives.
So I'm looking forward to connect with data folks, devrels and all others interested in data streaming + python + communities and urbanism, of course :)

Hello everyone! 👋🏼 My name is Ozan Tanaydin (He/him). And I am so happy to finally join here as a content creator instead of reading all day long. Now it's time to help the community that helped me a lot.

I am currently a student in management information systems. I really love computers and what they do but I am currently passionate about cyber security, offensive security,back-end web development, secure software development and web security I know this is quite much. What can I say I love computers.

Beside from school currently I am learning about python and I already did some crazy thing with it(I will talk about those on my blogs). And there is tons of things I want to learn. But my close time goal is start to work as back-end developer.

So why I am here? Since I told that I am still in learning process and I wanted to take a big steps in my career. So I would like to share my story to document my story, help new developers to learn and get motivated and senior developers to guide me. I hope with this community I will be able to do more than I could ever imagine. So feel free to write me from my twitter.com/OzanTanaydin or from mastodon.social/@r00tk1t.

Thank you for your times and happy coding 💻🎉💻🎉

Hello, my name is IB Teguh TM and I am an Odoo developer. It's a pleasure to meet you!

My journey in software development began with a passion for learning new technologies and exploring their potential. This brought me to Odoo, a powerful business management software that I am currently learning to master.

In addition to Odoo, I am also expanding my knowledge in programming languages such as Python, Java, and others. These languages are widely used in the software industry and can help me develop robust and scalable applications for my clients.

I am excited to learn and grow with Odoo, Python, and Java, as well as explore new technologies and frameworks that can help me build better software solutions. As an Odoo developer, I am committed to delivering quality work and providing my clients with the tools they need to succeed in their businesses.

Thank you for taking the time to get to know me, and I look forward to working with you in the future.
