Hi everyone! I work as a technical content creator for JetBrains Academy, specifically writing blogs and making YouTube videos for beginner programmers. If you have anything you wish you could have told your younger self about learning to program, tell it to me please!
I'm making my dev.to debut with a post ambitiously titled "How to prepare for the future of programming", check it out and let me know your thoughts!
Welcome Clara! It's awesome you're focusing on technical content for beginner programmers over at JetBrains Academy ✨🚀. That's highly valuable work! I'm genuinely keen to read your post, 'How to prepare for the future of programming.' Keep up the great work! 🎓
Welcome Clara!
Hi Clara! I just recently joined myself, and I find it super cool that you create content for beginners. If there is one thing I would have told my younger self it is the importance to take care of yourself, especially with regular movement and practices like meditation. I wonder whether that could be a blog article?
Hello Clara👋
Welcome, Clara!
Hi!
By day, I work as a freelance Data Consultant. By night, I'm a SaaS creator.
I completed a first project that allowed me to discover the world of full-stack web development and generally gain hands-on experience.
For the last six months, I've been working on a second project that aims to offer a reliable and free solution for getting feedback on applications/SaaS: testyourapp.io/
Talk to you soon!
Hi Valentin. Your Data Consultant/SaaS creator balance is interesting. Testyourapp.io is a valuable, privacy-focused concept. Good luck with it. 📊
Hi Valentin, great idea — getting feedback directly from other devs is the best way. I’ve just signed up and will be testing it out shortly.
Thanks for your interest! I hope the site will be helpful to you 🙂
If you ever feel like sharing feedback about your experience, I’d be more than happy to hear it.
hello Valentin
Hi everyone, my name is Sonia. I’m a software engineer with a strong interest in cybersecurity, AI, and mobile development. I hold a degree in Computer Science as well as a diploma in cybersecurity. I believe in the importance of building apps that truly protect users and keep them safe.
My dream is to create apps that spark a real breakthrough in the world even if they start small.
Welcome Sonia. Your focus on building secure mobile apps based on your cybersecurity background is essential. Thanks for joining.
Thanks for explaining this, Sonia. I appreciate you sharing your work and the idea behind MindShield AI with the community. Wishing you success with it. ✨
I’ve bookmarked your article and will make sure to read it soon.
Thank you so much for your kind words. I really appreciate you taking the time to check out my work. I’m looking forward to hearing your thoughts once you’ve had a chance to read the article.
You’re welcome, Sonia. I’ll read it soon and share my thoughts. Thanks again. 🙏
Hi, I'm serving for 5+ years. Contributed on large scale startups and gov projects. I have faced lots of problems in my development career. Also solved them by taking various actions. Now planning to share my knowledge among other devs. So they can avoid those mistakes and grow.
Welcome Rakib. Sharing lessons from large-scale and government projects will probably save others a lot of time and mistakes.
Sure, Shahrouz. I will start soon. Stay tuned. ;)
Looking forward to it. Good luck! 👍
I am an old school programmer who is interested in up skilling. I would like to start by learning Javascript
Welcome Beatrice. It’s never too late to upskill! Starting with JS is a fantastic choice for modern development. Good luck with your learning journey! ✨
Welcome Beatrice! I'm in the "not young" category myself, and always upskilling. It's a great place to be and a great time to be here!
A while back I wrote a blog post "The Best Programming Language" to help folks be more productive. It's a short read, no ads, and no tracking. Maybe it will help.
You might find the GoMakeThings blog by Chris Fernandini useful.
It focusses on vanilla (plain) JavaScript.
Hi,
I am building a fun travel app called Borderly. I want to share my development experience, especially now that i am turning the website into a mobile app. A first for me.
If you're a travel enthuisast check out borderlyai.com, its free and all you gotta do is upload your boarding pass and compete on the leaderboard.
Hi Borderly. Turning a website into a mobile app is a big transition. Good luck with the Borderly project! ✈️
Great! Lets success attends you!
Hi DEV.to Community!
I'm excited to join this incredible space of builders and learners. I'm a full-stack developer and AI engineer with a passion for creating accessible, user-centered applications, and I'm currently diving deep into AR, AI, and spatial intelligence; areas that fascinate me endlessly.
I'm here to connect with fellow developer, share what I'm learning, and hopefully contribute to the amazing conversations happening in this community. Looking forward to great insight, learning and being apart of this community... building something great!
Hi. Welcome Erica. Combining full-stack with a focus on AR and Spatial Intelligence is an interesting path. Thanks for the intro. 🤖
Hi and thanks! AR relies on spatial intelligence. In order to design effective AR experiences, developers often leverage spatial reasoning, ensuring digital overlays align correctly with physical space. I viewed a remarkable developer who is in the field its fascinating what she does with AR/SI/AI. To be good in AR/AI I'm studying its foundation. Spatial Intelligence helps us understand and manipulate space. I am still learning.
Thanks for sharing that, Erica. That explanation makes a lot of sense, especially the focus on foundations before tools. AR + spatial intelligence is a deep space to explore. Respect for taking the long-term learning route.
Greets, havn't done any coding in over 30 years but had an itch to scratch, so earlier this year I started vibe coding, building a site, and learning huge amounts of things I never knew I'd need.
By day I am a perfectly presentable, stable employee in a large company. By night I am a mad Saas developer dreaming of going full time :-)
Welcome back to the world of coding, Grant. That’s an inspiring return after 30 years. Good luck achieving your full-time SaaS goal. 💻🔥
Thanks Sharouz
😂😂, same here without the stable employee, 😭 I'm currently the mad Saas developer working full time without pay yet.
Thats rough ... admirable ... and rough :-)
Hi, I am working on my own SaaS app. I can't program and I am afraid to build in public. I am interested in the business side of application specifically cost.
Welcome Johann. It's helpful to have a strong business and cost perspective on building SaaS apps. Good luck with your project. ✨✨
Thanks Shahrouz. Cost based pricing in SaaS apps is still a bit of a mystery to me.
Totally get it. Pricing can be confusing. Wishing you the best with your SaaS journey!
Hello dev.to,
I am Avadhoot, and I am a beginner developer. I look forward to improving my programming skills and develop efficiency over time. I want to minimize the use of AI in code while, at the same time, making ChatGPT the vice head of all my projects. I crave perfection and clean animations and UI/UX design. To build the logic, I am currently doing C, to get closer to the device I am gonna earn my living from, then I'd move on to CPP and then to Javascript. I hope my journey forwards would change me positively somewhere, somehow, and at the end of the day, make me a better programmer.
Thanks for reading all that!
Welcome to DEV, Avadhoot. That's a strong learning path (C to JS). Focusing on clean UI/UX and minimising AI use while learning is smart. Keep going! ✨
