Hello there, everybody! I'm so glad to have found this community, everyone is kind and friendly and this is the first thing I notice when I join a new community. I'm Francesco from Verona, Italy and I am student at university but I had some experience with php (framework Yii) and Js as well: from jQuery to React and Angular. I'd like to gain much more experience in these languages and learn something new like React, Vue.. knowledge is power! Anyway I'm currently developing some small projects with Flutter and I'll definitely check out some posts for help when needed. Like Joel I subscribed few weeks ago but never introduced myself so here you are! Thanks for reading and a nice dev-to-day!

Hello and welcome from tutorialsmate π
ππΌ Hi all, I'm Vicky. I'm very involved with the Irish tech community (got started when I took over running Python Ireland from 2005 till 2016). More of a hobby coder nowadays as I do a lot of community work voluntarily like PyLadies Dublin, Coding Grace, GameCraft, Women Who Code Dublin, WITS Ireland. I'm open to collab with other user groups as well. Most of my events are for adults, although I'm happy to collab with groups that work with <18yos.
My day job is working with the Dublin Maker team as their Maker Advocate. My most memorable and rewarding role was being asked to be curator and researcher for a Science Gallery Dublin exhibition called GAME back in 2012. I still can't believe they paid me to play, read, immerse myself in the world of games, attend games festivals/confs, meet amazing people (artists, designers, coders, performers, researchers, games industry folks, etc) and worked with some very smart folks there. I learnt a whole lot and also had the most fun!
Now as Maker Advocate, I deal with everything and to audiences of all ages (very different to my voluntary tech community role).
And how I found this platform, it was because EuroPython joined recently (I'm kinda helping them out as a volunteer). So when I saw them join, I was curious and joined also and found some familiar faces here! π
So please to meet you all, and if there's any collaboration (given covid-19 has brought many people/orgs together through remote events), let me know. Any questions re. Irish tech community, organising events, diversity in tech, etc., let me know. I'm happy to help. π
"My most memorable and rewarding role was being asked to be curator and researcher for a Science Gallery Dublin exhibition called GAME back in 2012. I still can't believe they paid me to play, read, immerse myself in the world of games, attend games festivals/confs, meet amazing people..."
This sounds so dope!
Around this time period, I was living Edinburgh Scotland and remember going to a really similar exhibition... I wish I could remember the name! It's totally possible that they were related.
Anywho, welcome to DEV! I hope you dig it here. π
It was amazing! I did not in my life think that I would end up with that role (I didn't have curation or research as a skill, but I loved games, curious about how they are made). I met a lot of amazing indie games friends that way, and still friends with many to this day. Same period I started to co-run game jams as GameCraft. The community here has been great to me, so I wanted to give something back. I definitely ended up where I am via very unconventional routes after I left my role as a developer (went back to do a 1 year masters on Multimedia as I wanted to learn more about animation and interactive media, that was donkeys ago). And thanks for the kind welcome. π
Great to have you in the community Vicky
Thanks! :-)
Hi Vicky, nice to meet you! That GAME exhibit sounds fantastic!
Yeah, it was amazing to be part of it. If you are curious, they still have the link to the exhibition of what was in show at the time: dublin.sciencegallery.com/game
Excellent, thank you!
Hello and welcome from tutorialsmate ππ
Thanks for the welcome! This community has been great so far! If Iβm not careful, Iβll end up being obsessive with it! π Still figuring what Iβll be posting (including my org Coding Grace).
Hi \o/, my name is Aleksey, I'm a full-stack web developer and a second-year student at the University of People. I'm 37 years old so it's pretty hard for me since I trying to switch.

Hello fellow developers! I'm Prasenjit, nice to be connected with you all over here. I'm currently working as a cloud solution architect at Microsoft and my primary competence is SAP. Now I have started learning azure devops area where I felt I am not strong enough and need to build by skill. Therefor I have just joined this community with a motivation from learn you all and definitely in near future sharing my experience. I thought why not introduce myself and get more involved in the community. Thank you for creating this amazing platform!
Hi Prasenjit, it is awesome. Welcome. I am learning about solution architecture in my free time. Looking forwards to learn from you πͺ
Great to have a lot of new faces!

Hi all! I'm Sam--web developer, novelist and former book publicist, just making a career shift into programming after graduating Flatiron School's online software engineering bootcamp :) My most recent project is a novel progress tracking app made with React and Rails, and I'm in the middle of brushing up on my CSS so I can get more hands-on with the frontend of my next app!
Really enjoying Dev so far, and looking forward to getting involved in the community!
Hi Sam, it is a really cool career change! π

Excellent, thanks Habdul! I will look into these :)
Hello everyone! I'm Ixchel and I'm from Caracas, Venezuela. I'm truly happy to become part of this community and looking forward to write lots of posts here. My focus is data science, so I'm deeply interested in math articles, new technologies, ML and data pre processing. I'm ready to learn!
Hi Ixchel! It's so nice to meet you!
Hello, and welcome.
Hi π Iβm Nic. After a Computing degree and almost 20 years working in the IT industry (mainly as a Business Analyst) I am taking a year out to do a Data Science MSc. Iβm learning python mainly and Iβm in my final term, working on my project which is the detection of hate speech against women and immigrants on Twitter, in English and Spanish. I am not looking forward to my course ending because Iβm really loving reading, learning and coding all day. Iβm hoping to find a job where I can use my skills for social good.
When Iβm not working on my project, I like going for a bike ride and growing plants from seeds/cuttings.
Some things Iβm proud of: Iβve completed an ironman triathlon, Iβve started an online business that generates money for charity, and Iβve taught English as a volunteer in a small mountain village school in North East India.
I love learning and I love sharing my knowledge and helping people so if you have questions or if thereβs something you think I can help you with then please ask. Also, if you have feedback about my work/ideas then please share them with me - positive or negative - I want to learn.
Looking forward to seeing what you share and learning from you all ππ©π»βπ»
