Welcome Thread - v297

Hello,

It's been a while, so I thought to reintro: myself!

My name is Vaibhav. I am formerly a Product Manager but informerly, I love to code.

These days, I am learning and sharing about SwiftUI and building iOS Apps because they're fun.

See ya' around! <3

Hello! Long-time lurker, first-time commenter!

I’m a full-stack developer with 20+ years of experience. Seen a lot, done a lot, but the bulk of my work has been with Ruby on Rails.

Also, if you’ve played a crossword puzzle on any device — even webOS or Windows RT/8 devices! — I probably had a hand in getting it there.

I’ve been writing online for years but never about dev matters, and I figured it was time to start.

Thanks y’all for being such a welcoming community!

Hello,

I have just joined the community, Google brought me here when I was trying to understand Java EE bean annotations.

I am happy enough to code since my childhood, still enjoing it, even at work. My understanding of computing and software design comes from endless hours spent with code, trying to learn from mistakes, learning to optimize things, and solving problems.

Now I work in a corp as senior software engineer.

And have I found suitable answer to my problem here on DEV? I thing so, I try tomorrow morning :)

Happy to be here!

Hi,

I'm clearly a newbie and I do not know why I'm so late to join this community. This site has been very helpful in recent days as I occupied myself with Front-end dev. There are great resources and helpful insights that encouraged me to join and maybe contribute one or two things that I know.

I'm currently a full-time CS student who loves to build web based applications and over the last few months I have been learning 3D interfaces and VR development, which has been a cool but tricky ride.

Excited to join finally! Glad to be here. <3

Hello!
Came here because I like to develop web pages from scratch, because I like to code, I like css and I like to learn/know how the things work from the beggining, and that's saying a lot. So, mainly, I landed here now because I need a Form to my webpage and I have to learn how to code it using html, css, php and sql without using cms or others enchantments. And I think (I want to believe) I found the answer (or the way to, at least).

Hello Everyone!

My name is Morena Koaesa, and I'm excited to join this community. As a newcomer to web development, I am currently focusing on learning HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I am also exploring Gemini, a new tool that enhances my coding skills and project development.

I look forward to connecting with all of you and sharing knowledge along the way! If you have any tips for a newcomer or if you'd like to chat, feel free to reach out!

Thank You!

Hello,

I'm Sharbel from Lebanon, 22 years old, a cs graduate, and here's my intro!

My first 'programs' were in plain HTML and a turtle-based Scratch in middle school, then visual basics in high school before solo learning about other languages.

I had a burning flame for coding simply because it was fun to see the computer bend to my will through the incantation of logic distilled into keywords.

The best part about coding, as a kid, was that I could 'communicate' with the computer via nothing but pure logic and it would respond accordingly. There were no emotionally driven conversations where I could not reach the other person's mind and convince them of something simply because they refused to listen to anything.

The computer read. The computer responded. Any error in this 'exchange' was guaranteed (at least to the young me) to be on my part, hence I could resolve it!

University was heavily focused on theory, and the first year was full of math and some physics, so I gradually lost my passion.

Now I'm trying to rekindle that flame to find back the joy in writing code.

I would welcome any advice or tips on finding back your passion for coding, or how to pick a path. (I hate frontend though, lol)

And so, that's me!

See you around, and shoutout to Windows XP detective dog, Rover! <3

Hello,

My name is Daniel Shaibu, I'm a computer scientist, who loves Web development but is currently working as a social media manager.

I recently decided to take my coding seriously although I currently have no projects I'm working on.

Well that's all for now!
See ya around.

My name is Purvika & i am a engineer & I have 3 yr of experience in my field. I am here for gain some knowledge and share some ideas and knowledge. I am always ready for new challenges & learning new things.

Hi - I'm Andrew. These days I seem to mostly design projects for non-profits but my first love over the last 20 years has been old-school web development: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, MySQL. I think you get the idea ;) I hope that being part of this community will enthuse me to keep learning even when AI makes me feel deprecated!
