Feature Comment from last week thread!
Last week, I asked the community "What is your favorite programming language?" and here is one answer that stood out to me by @techie_sprinter:
Question of the Week!
"What is the one project you are proud of? (I recommend creating a post about your project and sharing it in the comments!)"
The comment will be featured on the next Welcome Thread!
Thanks for stopping by! Feel free to introduce yourself and welcome others by replying to at least 2 people! It would be greatly appreciated! :D
Hi!!
Welcome Julian!
HI
Welcome Cole :D
Hey!
Hello :)
I am a Technical Writer trying to keep up in the AI-paced environment. My dear @klaudiagrz encouraged me to look in here :)
Welcome to
dev.to! 😀 It's a lovely place where you will find interesting articles and a supportive community. I'm sure you will love it here! 💛Hey Martyna, welcome to DEV 👋
I’m happy to see you join DEV.to! I created my account a few weeks ago and like the platform. How do you know @klaudiagrz?
We've been working together for eight(?) years now ;) I introduced her to our first company, and then she introduced me to another one.
Hey everyone 👋
I’m Saurabh, a Chief Architect based in India, working at the intersection of large‑scale software architecture and applied AI. Over the past few years I’ve been helping enterprise teams design and ship systems that are reliable in production but still move fast enough for modern product demands.
I’m here on DEV to share what I’m learning about AI‑driven architectures, platform engineering, and the “executive view” of technical decisions; as well as to learn from how you all are solving similar problems. I’m also an active open‑source contributor and love turning real‑world challenges into reusable tools and libraries.
Outside of work, I enjoy experimenting with new ideas on my OSS projects, writing about architecture trade‑offs, and having thoughtful discussions about where AI is actually useful (and where it’s just hype).
Looking forward to connecting, swapping ideas, and hopefully collaborating with some of you on cool projects!
Hello, Saurabh! I think that what you shared about what you do is really interesting. I am definitely less experienced in coding than you, since I only started coding maybe a year ago (in the 6th grade) or so, and at my age, there isn’t much for me to code that makes a difference the way you do. I decided to join DEV.to because it’s at the intersection of what I love to do at this time, coding and writing.
Hey Tyler, that genuinely made my day, thank you for sharing that!
Starting to code in 6th grade and already thinking about where it intersects with writing? That's not "less experienced," that's a great foundation. The curiosity you're describing right now is what most senior engineers are still chasing years later.
The projects that make a real difference often start exactly like this: someone young, curious, and willing to explore without the pressure of already knowing the answer. Some of the best open-source tools and ideas I've seen came from people who were just experimenting for the love of it.
Keep coding, keep writing, and keep showing up in communities like this. The combination of both is rarer than you think, and more powerful than it seems right now.
Looking forward to seeing what you build. 🙌
Hey Saurabh, Welcome to DEV 👋
Thanks for the warm welcome, Hemapriya 😊
Happy to be part of this community and always great to connect!
Hi everyone! 👋
I'm Laxman Poudel from Nepal.
I'm a student, developer, and cybersecurity learner interested in web development, internet infrastructure, and domain intelligence.
Recently, I've been building projects focused on Nepal's web ecosystem, including a domain intelligence platform called NP Radar.
Right now I'm learning more about cybersecurity, building web applications, and sharing my development journey.
Looking forward to learning from the community and connecting with other developers!
Welcome to DEV, Laxman 👋
Thank you, Hemapriya! Excited to dive into the community and check out what everyone is working on.
Hello, Laxman! You seem to have a wide range of complementing interests. What is it like being a developer in Nepal?
Hello Tyler,
Thanks for the welcome!
Being a developer in Nepal is both exciting and challenging. We have access to great online learning resources and global communities, but the local tech ecosystem is still growing compared to larger tech hubs.
I'm currently a student, so I spend a lot of my time learning by building projects and exploring cybersecurity and web development.
Recently, I've been working on a domain intelligence platform focused on Nepal's .np ecosystem, which has been a great learning experience.
Looking forward to learning from everyone here!
Hi everyone, I’m Dima
I work in automation and build small products. My current project is Langooo, an app for learning languages through songs.
The idea is simple: find a song you love, follow the lyrics, understand each line, and save unfamiliar words.
I joined DEV to share the technical journey honestly: Jetpack Compose, Node.js, SQLite, translation APIs, product mistakes, and the uncomfortable shift from coding to finding real users.
Right now, my rule is: no new feature unless a real user is blocked by its absence
Looking forward to learning from other builders here
Hello, Dima! I really like your idea of learning languages through song. It seems like a new idea, considering the closest thing to what you are making is just multilingual lyric videos on YouTube (which is no where near what you are probalbly doing). Is your application, Langooo, available for usage at this time, or is it still an early prototype?
Welcome to DEV, Dima 👋
Wishing you success with Langooo and your journey as a builder.
Thank you, Hemapriya👋 Appreciate a lot 🙂
I’m an independent maker building tools for YouTube creators.
In 2025, I ran five faceless YouTube channels and generated over 400 million views. That experience gave me a close look at how creators work, where they struggle, and what tools are still missing.
Before this, I spent 10+ years in product and user operations at major Chinese internet companies, including Alibaba.
Now I’m building products like AudienceCue, TimedSubs, and JungRoom, with more creator-focused tools on the way.
Hello, Yana! I think your experience with running faceless YouTube channels definitely complements how you make tools for YouTube creators. I used to have a YouTube channel, but the content was not very educational and did not serve much of a purpose. What type of content did your faceless YouTube channels publish, and how was that content made?
Hey Yana, Welcome to DEV 👋
Hello DEV! 👋
New here, so let me introduce myself properly.
Things I love: green tests on the first run (a rare and sacred event), dark mode, and the smug satisfaction of finally closing 47 browser tabs.
Things I fear: merge conflicts, off-by-one errors, and anyone who says "can you just quickly center this div?"
My goal here is simple: to one day have more open Stack Overflow tabs than unsolved bugs. A dev can dream. 🚀
Hi everybody! I'm Santi.
I'm a SW Engineering student and I joined the platform mainly to work on my communication skills and to share with you guys anything valuable I learn in the process.
I'm also here to learn from you all and what you've got to share, specially if its related with production Backend systems, Devops, Cloud and ML!
Hello! Software engineer by day; photographer, videographer and digital artist by night. My laptop fans have seen things.
I like building tools for devs. Just shipped confi.sh, and the process took me to places no tutorial ever warned me about.
Hey 👋 I'm Bilal Malik, but you can call me byllzz.
Here because Stack Overflow made me cry.
Learning: how to name variables like an adult.
Fun fact: deleted a semicolon once, fixed everything. Still scared.
Hello guys.
I am studying aerospace engineering and I want to get into control engineering.
In order to build up my programming skill, I will try to do few projects by myself and I´d like to share my progress here.
Hey, welcome to DEV 👋
Good luck with your projects! Looking forward to seeing your progress.

Hi everyone 👋
I’m Vladyslav, a PHP developer working on Coretsia — an early-stage PHP 8.4+ framework experiment focused on deterministic tooling, strict package boundaries, and source-of-truth-driven architecture.
I’m mainly interested in long-lived PHP systems, framework internals, developer tooling, and architecture decisions that stay maintainable over time.
I recently joined DEV and published my first post about designing the framework before the first stable release. I’m not looking for hype or production adoption yet — mostly thoughtful feedback from people who have worked with PHP frameworks, internal platforms, or complex backend systems.
Happy to be here and looking forward to learning from the community.
👋 Hi everyone! Thanks for stopping by to read about GoRelay.
I'm Amit, the creator of this project. This is my first open-source library, and I'm both nervous and excited to share it with you.

Hi everyone! 👋 I'm Alex, a designer turned developer from Spain.
I just launched three Chrome extensions (TabCost, PR Focus, and ChainTrace). I'm still in the early stages; I don't have any significant figures yet, but I'm learning a ton about the MV3 architecture, Gumroad's digital footprint licensing, and the freemium pricing trap (giving away too much).
If you've also created extensions, what was your biggest technical surprise with Manifest V3? I'll share mine in the replies. I'd love to talk about it!
Hi im Leo. I Built AltiVerse: Fork Any Decision Into Living Simulations With 1,000 Personalities
What if you could see the real human consequences of a decision before making it?
Not through abstract models or spreadsheets — but by watching living simulations of people reacting, interacting, and slowly pulling realities apart.
Hey, I'm Usman. Java developer for about 10 years, based in Netherlands. I'm building Marshal, a behavioral supply-chain scanner for JVM dependencies. Instead of checking CVE databases, it watches how packages change on Maven Central and scores each update for suspicious patterns.
Just published my first post here about running it against real packages and finding false positives in my own tool: dev.to/usman18/i-scanned-real-mave...
Looking forward to connecting with other Java and security folks here.
