Hi all. My name is Franco and I'm from Italy. I love coding, and not by chance I have a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science. My biggest passion is web development. I love HTML, CSS, JavaScript and web performance. Every time I build something for the web I ask myself: «How can I made it better and faster?».

Hey Franco Nice to meet you, I am new here and was just noticing that you had a CS degree. I am in the process of getting my CS degree but I am just starting out so I am really new to things, unfortunately. If you don't mind me asking, do you think the degree has helped your success in the industry a lot or not so much?

Hi all! At this point, I might have already bored everyone hehehe. As many of devs here, I am going through an intense learning process.
I am 31 years old and decided to give up my job to really focus on conversion and become a front-end developer asap.
I am not quite sure how I came across Dev.to but I know I just fell in love of it. I felt like this was the right social network to be. Since it is not just for questions nor to show off projects or look for a job like Linkedin. It feels like a secure place to learn and share within the developer's community. A really nice and welcoming place. Thank you :D

Hi All, My name is Chetan and I'm from sunny California

I'm an engineer turned company operations guy and I started Macrometa 2 years back with my cofounder Durga Gokina to create a new geo-distributed cloud that runs your apps and data across a network of data centers closer to your end users. So instead of your App or API having a single lonely backend thousands of miles and hundreds of milliseconds away from your clients, browsers, and devices, our cloud puts the database and server-side code 10-20 milliseconds away by distributing, synchronizing and orchestrating your data worldwide.

Macrometa is a CRDT database - it uses some new database techniques like Conflict Free Replicated Data Types, logical time keeping and Convergence (instead of consensus) to help provide strong consistency gaurnatees across very large network distances and latencies. It allows you to have local read write latencies - yet synchronizes accurately and deterministically.

If you have interest in some code - here's a repl of doing some things like creating a DB that runs across LA, Virginia, Frankfurt and Mumbai India

the code does some inserting and querying. There is a geo loadbalancer in front of this makes sure you are routed to the closest database location based on where you are making the request from.

Brett Mchatton

Hello all,
My name is Brett and I am an aspiring dev from Cocoa Beach Florida.

A little bit about my history, I was an audio engineer for about 15 years and had many day jobs along the way. Though eventually I got tired of not seeing my children so I decided to switch careers. I had built websites and graphics for bands and businesses mostly drag-and-drop but using HTML and CSS to really do what the client needed to do. During this time I got experience with Dreamweaver and utilizing FTP servers. Also, I got bit by the programming bug early in life with qbasic.

After leaving the music industry I got a job at a local magazine as their graphic designer and web developer. Using Wordpress I brought our SEO scores up and cleaned up the site as well as added ads. We also had three other clients that I managed and rebuilt their web pages as well All of them using different hosts and CMS.

While working for this company I took a couple of free online courses to get my chops up in HTML and CSS. After leaving that company I started to attend treehouse where I learned more about front end development and JavaScript. Though I made the mistake of not building a portfolio during this time, so after completing the course on front end development I was still unable to get a job.

After getting rejection letter after rejection letter I decided to get a job in something I had quite a bit of experience with CNC Machining.

Now on the right track I am starting to build my portfolio and learn Frameworks as well as many other things. I found out about this community on a podcast started looking around and found this community to be amazing. I will be writing a blog post in the future about the pitfalls and the struggles of getting into this industry.

I would definitely like to thank all of you that have contributed to this community and thank you for all of the information that I have already absorbed through this community.

Though I am pretty new to e-commerce, I've learned quite a lot in the very short space of time and what's compelled me to start learning code is how and why I actually got hired in the first place. My company needed a total revamp of its website and seeing how the processes and the way things were going about, I felt intrigued and told myself I'd learn how to code and develop websites for people and clients and businesses that needed them. Before the year ends, I hope to have acquired and mastered the basics of web development first hand.

Since 2006, I've entered IT field as a student, and luckily learn about Linux at that moment. In 2009, I started working as a (offline) course instructor, with quite broad topic covered (web dev, mobile dev, graphic design and multimedia); mostly of it use FOSS (Free Open Source Software) as tools. During that time, I've never involved in real development project; Besides preparing -mostly- web & mobile project as learning materials.
Feel that I should have real development project, I decided to resign in Q4 2017. And I joined Indonesian startup company as a Web & Mobile Developer, in Jan 2018. Until present, I feel that I got more experience on development much much more than my previous job as an instructor.

Hello DEV.TO community. Some great posts from various authors here have been surfaced lately on my Pixel (swipe-left topic feed) and so I dove in (finally) on my laptop and joined.

I've been a designer/developer since the early days of "pixel perfect designs" and I have "freelanced" for over a decade - aka been only self-employed. It's been a wild ride, with feast and famine cycles. But always being self-determined was the way I lived my life, working with clients while traveling around the world (Brazil to New Zealand and in between). As a front-end UX specialist, I mostly built designs, partnered with developers, and managed clients.

Now I am part of two startups, working with amazing people and cofounders (yes, out of the client-chasing realm).

I am happy to offer advice to anyone striking out on their own... your business model matters more than you think!

cheers.

I am working on a few projects while I look for a full-time position, so I can continue to progress in my code journey. I look forward to learn and advance my skills.

Hello everyone! I am Jeff, Software Engineer at Palo Alto Networks. I already have a few posts, but managed to not introduce myself first.

I came to Dev.to due to a friend of mine telling me how great it is. I had been posting on Medium for a while and felt like nobody cared about what I wrote. He suggested posting on here since it is much more engineering focused.

Currently working in JS, React, Redux, but formerly I was a Ruby on Rails dev.

Fun fact about me is I collect and build vintage cars. It is kind of an obsession really.

Anyways, hi to everyone, and hopefully some of you take a gander at my content.

Just started learning Python for my job and I hate it. The learning curve is brutal. I can't get the hang of the whole dictionary thing. I've been coding in HTML, CSS, JAVA, Objective C, C++, C# for a decade. Dabbled in FORTRAN for a summer and I fell in love with SQL last year and started mastery in that language this year.

hey, im a software engineer and reverse engineer, I self taught my self a lot of what i know about computers and reversing while growing up from a super early age.

I started to go to a community college and got burned out the first year. the work was honestly just way to easy and i wanted to be in the workforce now not later. so i put it on hold for a while and i went and joined the health case information tech field. It was a journey but i learned a lot and worked with some of the best companys in the industry, like toshiba, samsung. etc.

Sadly i do have a health condition i knew about that was getting worse and worse over time. and at the moment i'm taking a break from everything so i can focus on my health over the next 5 years possibly.

I can't wait for my return back to the tech industry, i bet so much will have changed by the time i end up back in a professional position!

But honestly, im down to make friends and contacts during this time, I'm personally from the Northen kentucky area!

Hi 👋

My name is KimSia and I'm from Singapore 🇸🇬.

How I got started in dev.to

Came across dev.to a few times during googling for answers in the past. Nothing at those times convinced me to look at dev.to longer.

Initially I thought this is just another me-too dev tutorial + community. Then I googled for vscode extensions materials and found some pretty good stuff that I cannot find elsewhere.

I changed my mind about dev.to

So I dug a bit more and am now listening to the realtalkjavascript.simplecast.fm/b... podcast where Ben Halpern was on.

Decided to take the plunge and follow a few topics. I like the design so far.

What I am interested in learning

I am interested in a range of topics such as vscode extensions, python, javascript, django, react, electron, deeplearning, aws, and database design.

I am also excited abt the new raspberry pi model 4. looking to get my hands on one towards end of year :)

What I'm doing

I run an independent software vendor (ISV) business.

I specialize in end-to-end business processes for telco, civil engineering, and construction companies.

Current main project is for telco equipment company managing their BOQ (Bill of Quantities) process from request all the way to acceptance.

So, in the hope of becoming one of those skilled guys at some day I'm here to learn :)

Anita Graham

Hello, Anita here.

I've been a programmer since 1979. I've used many, many OSes, languages, frameworks, systems, editors and IDEs.

My first job was as a systems program on CDC Cyber systems - 60bit words, a machine language that was unusual even then, and peripheral processors with 15 bit words. If you wrote carefully (on paper, then on punched card) you could rearrange your code to fit several instructions into one word. (The Cyber min config included 32,768 words of memory.

I still enjoy programming and now I write mostly in Ruby and javascript (ES6).

As is now the trend I am opinionated in some regards, but I don't stay up arguing in the OS wars, or the Editor wars or any other wars these days.

Hi all and thanks for having me! I came here from a suggestion from @vscodetips. I did have some questions regarding key binding chords in VS Code, but I have since figured it out on my own, but it's always good to find a good community!!! I don't have any degrees (though I do have some formal education), but I have loved scripting/programming for well over 20 years and have done plenty of freelance work in the past; though now that I have my small farm I just code for the love of it. I am only a proficient and experienced scripter, but I am moving on to more low-level languages to broaden and improve my skills.

I must admit, I am not great at first impressions.

Hello, my name is Jeffrey Hartmann. I have been available for work since September 2016; it is now June 2019. My experience includes front-end and back web design and development as well as relational databases. I am open to opportunities in and out of web development in (or maybe out of) Chicago. I am willing to discuss career alternatives, including entry-level and junior-level situations. My personal website, jephmann.com is where I tinker to stay active while in between jobs. I do not know how active I will be on Dev.to as my primary focus is currently on securing an earnest restart to my career; plus I'm a bit on the shy side anyhow. Regardless, the learning never stops for me and I hope that I can contribute to Dev.to some time soon. Thanks!

Stuff like algorithm design, graph theory, etc would be really helpful to know!

I wrote the Facebook and Google Login (with Passport) tutorial as I struggled to understand how passport integrates with sailsjs and in general (the middleware part was new to me as well). I wrote the passportcontroller in action1 instead of action 2 as I like having it in one file instead spread out over more.

Well, I am not that lucky, will have to dig in deeper into Symfony as the main eCommerce platform my LAMP clients are using is Prestashop which current version is half (100% planned for the future) based on Symfony.
But I find the node environment more refreshing.
I also like sails though I see some shortcomings with the parasails wraapper when trying to integrate third-party Vue
multi components packages. This is why I did the current project's frontend with parasails but for the backend I switched to plain Vue as a separate application.

Dakota

Hey everyone. My name is Dakota. Somewhat new to programming (took some C++ in school, made a couple “websites” for fun that I didn’t do anything with, lots of VBA with excel for my current job), and looking to hopefully make this a full time gig.

A bit about me, I’m currently a Chemical Engineer for a large oil and gas company, and have done drilling and completions work for the last 7 years. Lately (the last few years anyways) I’ve been feeling a lack of satisfaction from work and realize it’s becaise of the nature of my work leaves me without anything tangible to show for my efforts. Sure I make a lot of spreadsheets and presentation but that’s about as close to something tangible that I work on. The few times I’ve made something with code I always felt a lot of satisfaction but of course always had in the back of my head that without formal schooling I wouldn’t be able to get my foot in my door with anyone.

Of course fast forward a couple years after seeing several success stories where folks were able to make a living as developers without formal schooling after having several projects to show and a desire to continuously learn, im starting to see this may be a good path for me.

Currently I’m learning iOS development, and I’ll likely sprinkle some more web development in there with the eventual goal that I can quit my job and get a more satisfying one in the tech industry. Of course I won’t be able to pursue development full time as I can’t quit my job until I have one lined up in the near future but I look forward to being involved in this community and learning tons over the coming months/years.

That’s the end of my long winded intro, but if anyone has any advice for a relatively new to developing developer as well as advice on switching industries after being in one for nearly a decade, I’m all ears.

Thanks

I have been in the industry for more than 20 years, wearing all the hats you can imagine. The last decade I have been mostly working on startups. I like getting things done, and after having done Scala on two projects, it no longer seemed the fastest way to get things done, so I switched to Node. I like the ecosystem, don't necessarily like the language, but I'm okay. My background is in strongly typed languages, but I found switching to Node fairly comfortable. (But then again, we switched to CoffeeScript, in which everything is an expression, which generally makes me feel really happy.) I'm still hoping for a sensible alternative to TypeScript. Dabbled with ReasonML: there is a ton of things I like — but there are also some things I'm not all that fond of.

Hello ... been lurking around dev.to for ages and have finally taken the plunge and joined you crazy lot of world changers.

Been doing this programming thing for over 20 years but don't let that fool you. I am still learning so much every day.

Funny story to set the tone. On one of my very first jobs I was at a client site (a hospital) and had to be sitting in the server room for some reason. Anyway the guy supervising me got me going on the task he wanted me to do and then left me to it.
I was working away and then had to shift in my seat and my knee knocked something and then this really weird noise of a whole bunch of fans started spinning down. I had turned of the main power to the whole email servers.

YAY ME!

Needless to say that the guy was back in the server room pretty quick and kicked me out and got to work fixing it all.
I felt pretty ordinary but I lived to tell the tale.

We all stuff up from time to time and hopefully you will do it when someone kind is your supervisor.

If you are a supervisor ... be that someone kind.

Cheers,

Hello all,
My name is Brett and I reside in Cocoa Beach Florida (USA). I spent about 15 years of my life as a professional in the music industry mostly as an audio engineer. During that time I did a lot of graphic design for bands and made drag-and-drop websites using small amounts of HTML and CSS to do exactly what I needed to. After getting sick of not seeing my kids as much as I would like to I decided to change careers. I wanted to do something that would retain my interest, as well as allow me to constantly learn as learning is an obsession of mine. Also, a friend of mine suggested that I get into software development.

I did work for a magazine and Media company for a year as a graphic designer and web developer. We hosted our own website and developed it through WordPress, also we had three other clients for web development that I did their sites as well. After leaving the company I decided to attend Treehouse online learning and really got nowhere, then after getting rejection letter after rejection letter I got discouraged enough to fall back to an industry I had worked as a day job while I was in the music industry... CNC Machining. Now I'm working my job and building a portfolio so that those rejection letters will turn into interview processes. Though I will be explaining more about that in a later blog post.

I think the idea of this community is amazing and I found a lot of very good reads on here. I would like to thank all of you for participating in the community and I would also like to thank everyone who helps all of us beginners. Your all's help and guidance has made this industry more available than ever.

Hi everybody,

my name ist Thorsten and I live and work in Germany.
I am a Junior Backend Developer since 2016. Before that a was in an apprenticeship to become an IT- specialist for software development. There I was thought C, C# as well as MySQL in crash course like classes. It was fun but hard as well. Personally I use to use Linux for almost 20 years now, and I like it very much, also because it's open source and community driven.

Since 2016 I am employed and I develop in php on the TYPO3 framework (including FLUID and extbase, it's templating engine and extension API) as well as with HTML, CSS, MySQL and bash-Scripting.
We use docker here as container and local dev environments.
Though I am nearly a Fullstack Developer, but I still feel like a noob every day, especially, if there are harder Problems to solve. It also feels like I don't really "get into the framework" and its mass of classes and functions.
So I try very hard to get better every day, even if it feels soooooo slow, because there are just and only these 8 to 10 hours a day for practice.

I like reading through forums and platforms like this, because they help so much to develop my skills next to my practical work, and I sometimes find little gems and jewels which powerup my skills a little bit.

I appreciate every little help and contact as well as questions I may help with. Both are wonderful opportunities to develop my skills and the skills of the other.

Hello all, my name is Michael and what can I say, i love Javascript. I started learning to code about three years ago when I wanted to make my own VST plugin for FL Studio. I decided C++ was too deep for me so I learned Python. After tackling the basics, I wanted to actually make something besides a terminal program. I decided a web app was the way to go so I started learning javascript. After struggling with Django and Flask I realized I wouldn't ever have to write anything other than JS using Node and Express.
Flash forward to today and I'm trying to fill in some knowledge gaps with general web dev skills and keeping current with some latest technologies.

From there I started learning html using the angelfire website. Everything kind of went on the back burner though when I joined the army. I was able to keep up with computers themselves, if not development. I've been a musician for 30 some years so afterwards I started my career path as musician and graphic designer and eventually basic web pages again. I never got much bolder until recent years, after becoming disabled, when I had just enough knowledge to fix a few things for a company, and they hired me on. So I'm in the process of learning again.

The journey has been great so far, but I felt that the thing missing for me was a community of like-minded people. I've been hearing a lot of good things about dev.to, and have benefited from many of the articles posted on here (a huge thank you to everyone). I recently heard Ben (Halpern) talk about the platform and community more in-depth on a podcast I was listening to and decided to finally drop by. From everything I've read so far, this seems to be just about the most welcoming developer community.

As for tech, I use JavaScript most of the time, learning both front & back-end technologies. Completing a CS degree means that I jump from one thing to another, but I try to stack related knowledge through personal projects. In all honesty, it's often a struggle not to be overwhelmed. On the other hand, it's fascinating enough to provide me the motivation to push through.

But yeah, really excited to be here. I'm also amazed at how varied the backgrounds of people here are - really cool. Let's keep on learning and sharing together 😊

This allowed without changing the SPA to draw dozens of forms stored on the server in the Python dictionaries.
But we always want more: I made a multi-window application, it's quite simple. But I want something else: I taught SPA on different tabs to interact via websocket (30 lines on Python and 50 on js). Further more interesting: 2 - screen layout manager, on one screen you arrange elements (tags, controls, fragments, components), on another screen (another computer/tablet/smartphone) in real time you see the result. Double transpiler: SVG to Python dictionary and JSON, json to React (all this 1 small SPA). What's next? I want to connect voice control of a marking.

Hello everyone, my name is Gonzalo and I like learning about new technologies as well as understanding some of the best practices in software development. My belief is that there isn't a "silver bullet" for everything but instead we play a game of trade-offs. I currently do web development which I think is really interesting because in this day an age lots of powerful things can be built on a web page. I'm also tinkering with some cool animations such as parallax and learning to use Flexbox and CSS3.

Hi! I'm Adrian, I'm 23 and as everyone here, I'm new to the community. I was attracted to dev.to because I like writing and saw many other people doing so in here! So I'll try and stick here and maybe write something and see where it goes from there!
I like coding as everyone here does (At least the majority I'm guessing) and I'm currently working in a project for my social service in college so they can use it at the neurosciences institute in one of their campus! From there, I'm waiting for a job offer that it's currently cooking (as in I applied, passed many filters and interviews, and waiting for my offer) and I'm planning to invest my later available free time learning as much machine learning as I can!

I started building websites professionally at a startup ISP in a college town in Texas way back in 1994, when Netscape Navigator was all the new rage. All we had to work with was tables and a few animated gifs, 'under construction'. I graduated with a degree in Electrical Engineering, which I turned into a lifetime of loving the constant change, challenge, education, and competition.

I've worked for a less than average number of companies in the past 25 years, and looking back the most important thing for both the company, but mostly my personal happiness and satisfaction, was pride in my work, it's the only thing you have, and it follows you forever, it's the only thing you have, and it follows you forever.

I'm currently working with, ReactJS and MongoDB for a major site that processes over 200 purchases a second.

Never stop moving forward, never stop learning new things, it's the one thing no one can take from you.

Learn the power of no, they'll learn, they just need to know what to expect. If they can't handle it, move on, their loss not yours.

Anyway glad to be apart of the group.

Harry Alvin Waidan Kefas • Edited

Hi all, my name is Harry from Indonesia and looking for a place to share something i know or discuss about something in mind. Of course that "something" is the topic around software development. And I found out dev.to seems like the closest one to it.

What I still learn right now is around Node.js + Express.js and Go (this one still learn the basics tho), how to scale Node App (of course the Go App too in the future), around system engineer stuff (automate server setup, automate backend pipeline, and generating backend code boilerplate).

I'm hoping to share what I've learnt as soon as possible and learn as much as possible here.

Cheers!
