Feature Comment from last week thread!
Last week, I asked the community "What is the one project you are proud of? (I recommend creating a post about your project and sharing it in the comments!)" and here is one answer that stood out to me by @artemkozak where he built DockGraph!:
I Built DockGraph: A Live Topology Map for Docker and Compose
Question of the Week!
"What is the hardest bug that you have to encounter as a developer? Did you fix it?"
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! Thanks for all the help and articles to get started!
For me the hardest bugs are rarely the most complex ones but the ones you can't reproduce consistently and only show up under very specific conditions 😠
Recently we had a race condition in production. It never showed up in development or QA, only under real load. The hardest part was proving it existed. We eventually traced it to concurrent updates hitting the same resource and fixed it with proper concurrency controls.
Welcome to Dev!!❤️
Thanks!!
Hey Axel! It's always the one that is hard to prove. Once the bug is there, you have to reproduce it to the best of your ability. Sometimes the bug shows up and never shows up again lol.
Thanks for sharing and welcome to DEV! :D
Thanks!!
Hi everyone 👋
I'm Chinaemerem Nkwachukwu Nwachukwu — a cybersecurity engineer and founder based in Nigeria.
I build detection tooling and security infrastructure under Tinlance Limited, my AI and cybersecurity studio. My first article here covers ThreatFade, an entropy-based C2 detection engine I validated against real Merlin QUIC malware traffic. Before that I contributed Nigerian fintech credential detectors to Nuclei, TruffleHog, Semgrep, Gitleaks, and Slither — the gap in coverage for Paystack and Flutterwave patterns bothered me enough that I just fixed it.
I'm here to write about threat detection, building security products as a solo founder in Africa, and the actual engineering decisions that go into shipping real tools — not the sanitized version.

Looking forward to connecting with the security and open source folks here. If you're working on detection engineering, C2 analysis, or building SaaS from emerging markets, I'd love to talk.
Hey, welcome to DEV 👋
Impressive! Welcome
wow
Nice to meet you. I’m also here to learn and write more consistently. What topics are you most interested in?
Welcome aboard! Saw you're working with cybersecurity. I went down that same rabbit hole over the last couple of years and reached the HTB leaderboard. Happy to swap notes anytime.
Hey everyone, I’m Jack.
I’m working on AI developer tools and recently spending more time around LLM APIs, model routing, and practical AI app infrastructure.
I joined DEV to share small technical notes, learn from other builders, and write more consistently about what I’m building and testing.
Outside of work, I’m usually exploring new dev tools and trying to turn messy setup problems into simpler workflows. Happy to meet everyone here.
Hey Jack, welcome to DEV 👋
Hey welcome!
Hey Jack,
Welcome to the community! I just joined today as well 👋
In my career, I specialized in turning messy problems into simpler workflows, as well!
Glad to have something in common 😀
Hi everyone 👋🏼
I’m new to Dev.to and here to get a bit creative and see where it leads.
I’m a self-taught developer with years of experience in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, currently working in integrations and moving toward Developer Advocate roles.
Reach out if you're keen to build cool projects.
Hey Shannon, welcome to DEV 👋
Hi! Welcome!!
Hey everyone! I'm plasma 👋
I'm a developer advocate at TokenBay — we're building an API gateway so you don't have to juggle 6 different LLM provider keys, dashboards, and billing pages. Before this I was just another indie dev whose AI API bill randomly doubled one month and decided to do something about it lol.
Outside of work I'm kinda obsessed with workflow automation (been diving deep into n8n lately) and agent architectures. When I'm not staring at code, you'll find me on a tennis court taking my 3.5 rating way too seriously 🎾 or dragging myself up Mission Peak on weekends.
Been lurking on DEV for a while but finally decided to stop being a ghost and actually talk to people. What's everyone building right now? Anyone else out there juggling multiple LLM providers or is that just a me problem?
Happy to chat about APIs, agents, workflows, or anything else. XD ☕
Hey plasma, welcome to DEV 👋
Welcome everyone! It’s so great seeing so many people joining the community!✨
You're right. Here:
Hi everyone! 👋
I'm Saylee — a Flutter developer from India who spends way too much time debugging audio/video call issues at 2 AM. When I'm not wrestling with WebRTC, I'm probably building something I'll never finish or arguing with my code.
Started my journey in 2023, currently building things that break in interesting ways, and writing about it so the next person doesn't have to learn the hard way.
Excited to be here! 🚀
Hey Saylee, welcome to DEV 👋
Hi, everyone. This is Gwen- A engineer at Tokenbay. .
I work on building OpenAI-compatible gateways that help teams evaluate and switch between multiple LLM providers without rewriting their apps. In Dve.to , I’ll share practical engineering notes on routing, testing, cost/latency tradeoffs, and how to roll multi-model setups into production.
Nice to see you guys again!😀
Hey Gwen, welcome to DEV 👋
Hey! I'm a full-stack developer from Spain. I'm really into building APIs and AI integrations. Looking forward to learning from this community and sharing what I build along the way!

Hello everyone!!
Hey Vartika, welcome to DEV 👋
Hey!! 👋🏻 Welcome to Dev ❤️
Hi everyone - I'm Lavkesh, a senior engineer in Dallas working on cloud-native systems and AI. 15 years in and I still write my own code, which I think is the only real way to keep your judgment sharp. I write about what I actually build at lavkesh.com - cloud architecture, AI in production, distributed systems, and occasionally something that has nothing to do with any of that. On the question of the week: the hardest bug I've hit was a race condition that only appeared when two services crossed a Daylight Saving Time boundary at 2am on a Sunday under real production load. Three weeks to reproduce it deliberately. Yes, we fixed it. No, I'm not over it.
Welcome. How do you define cloud-native systems?
Good question, because the term has been stretched to mean almost anything.
My working definition: a system is cloud-native if its architecture was designed around the cloud's actual characteristics namely - elasticity, managed services, ephemerality, pay-per-use rather than designed for on-prem and then migrated. The distinction matters more than people think. A system that runs in Kubernetes but was conceived as "always-on, single-region, stateful" is not cloud-native. It's just containerized. Cloud-native means you assumed from day one that instances die, that you pay for what you use so idle compute is a failure, that infrastructure is disposable and reproducible, and that scaling out is cheaper than scaling up. In practice it shows up in three places: how you handle failure (retries, circuit breakers, graceful degradation built in, not bolted on), how you deploy (infra-as-code, nothing exists unless it was provisioned deliberately), and how you observe (structured logs, metrics, traces from the start, not after the first 3am incident). The textbooks will give you a longer answer. I prefer the shorter one.
Wow. Yet another reason for everyone to just use UTC. Why does it need to be a certain time of day for the number we assign to it? 😅 That bug would've broken me.
UTC was not the problem. Both services used it correctly. The bug was in the scheduling logic - one service had to run at 2am local time by design, and the other assumed the timezone offset never changed. They were both right. Together they were wrong for one hour a year. That is why it took three weeks to reproduce deliberately.
hi I am Barrack a junior backend and systems engineer
Hey Barrack, welcome to DEV 👋
Hello everyone! 👋
My name is Divine, and I'm excited to join the DEV Community.
I'm currently building my skills in Cloud Computing, Networking, Azure, and Microsoft 365 Administration. I recently earned my Microsoft Certified: Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900) certification and have been documenting my learning journey through technical notes, GitHub repositories, and LinkedIn posts.
At the moment, I'm focused on:
I believe in learning in public, sharing what I learn, and connecting with others who are on a similar journey.
Looking forward to learning from the community, contributing where I can, and documenting my progress along the way.
Happy to connect with fellow learners, cloud enthusiasts, and IT professionals!
Welcome!!💗
Thank you so much
Hey, welcome to DEV
Thank you so much
👋 Hey everyone! I'm a data engineer by day, and I build small data-utility websites on the side under a project I call NicheLabs — basically taking public datasets that are stuck in terrible formats (scanned PDFs, clunky government registers) and turning them into clean, queryable tools.
What brought me here: I just shipped a site on a fresh domain and hit a result I couldn't find written up anywhere — Bing started ranking it 2.6× harder than Google. Came to dev.to to share the data and learn from people who've seen similar patterns.
Fun fact: my tech stack of choice is almost embarrassingly cheap — Next.js static export on Cloudflare Pages means I run these sites for about ₹1,000 (~$12) a year total. The constraint is half the fun.
Currently learning a lot about how AI Overviews are reshaping SEO — it's changing what kind of content is even worth building.
Hey everyone! 👋
I'm one of the devs behind Multita (multita.com.ar), a service that checks traffic-fine status across a pile of Argentine jurisdictions. There's a lot of scraping, queueing, and Cloudflare Workers behind it, and after lurking here for ages, I finally started writing some of it down.
First post went up this week: how we stopped bots without a CAPTCHA, using proof-of-work in the browser + Cloudflare Workers. It's in Spanish, but the snippets and diagrams should carry the idea even if you don't read it.
Fun fact about the problem space: in Argentina, checking your own fines means visiting a different government portal for almost every province, each one slower and weirder than the last. The product basically exists because doing that by hand is miserable😅
What are you all building on Workers these days? Always curious about edge use cases.
This hits home — I do a lot of scraping into Cloudflare D1/Workers myself, so the "every government portal is slower and weirder than the last" line made me laugh in recognition. The proof-of-work-instead-of-CAPTCHA approach is clever, going to read the post even through the Spanish (the diagrams will carry it). Curious how you handle portals that change their structure on you — that's been my biggest maintenance headache. Following along.
Daily checking your business does the work. Thank you!
Hello 👋
I'm Toshio. By day: credit risk modeling (15+ yrs). By night: building networking protocols from scratch in pure Python.
What I'm building:
h2, no C extensions. Every block annotated with its RFC 9113 section number.Co-authored a joint BOJ/ECB study on fintech. My work converges on one question: what does it take to turn a spec into a correct, fast implementation — and what breaks when you get the details wrong?

Hey Dev.to! 👋
I’m Kenji, a Senior Full-Stack & Mobile Engineer (7+ years exp) based in Japan. My daily drivers are React/Next.js, Node.js, TypeScript, and Flutter. I love architecting systems and shipping clean code, but I'm not a salesperson and I'm in the wrong time zone for EU client calls.
The Idea 💡
I'm looking for a Europe-based developer to partner up and start a small boutique agency.
You: Handle client acquisition, sales calls, and scoping in EU time zones.
Hey everyone! 👋 I'm Vinoth - Head of Platform Engineering for Identity provider
What brought me here: I built an AI agent that investigates production incidents 24/7/365 so I or my team don't have to. It works so well that I realized I should probably write about it before someone else figures out the same pattern and gets the credit. 😄
What I do: I lead platform engineering for a global IAM/SSO platform supporting 30M+ users, 5 AWS regions, 20+ EKS clusters. My team keeps the lights on at 99.97% uptime. My AI agents keep us sane while doing it.
Fun fact: I named my agents after Tony Stark's AI assistants because if I'm going to be on-call at 2 AM, I at least deserve a butler. FRIDAY handles the incidents. JARVIS handles the security. I handle the coffee. ☕
Looking forward to connecting with fellow practitioners who are actually shipping AI to production not just talking about it at conferences. 🚀
FRIDAY for incidents, JARVIS for security - splitting them by job makes sense. I run something close for problem analysis: an agent that stitches logs, metrics, and user activity into one timeline, so I'm not bouncing between five dashboards lining up timestamps by hand. That part - correlating across different signal types - is where I think AI is underrated. Everyone talks about it writing code. Almost nobody talks about how good it is at reading the telemetry nobody has time to read. Does FRIDAY pull from multiple sources like that, or mostly logs?
💯
Hi,
I'm a vibe coder. I don't write code from scratch, but I understand enough about how codebases work to spot the kind of problems other non-technical builders hit when they use AI tools.
I've been using Claude Code for a while now and learning where it works well and where it quietly fails. I'll probably write about that here, specifically the gap between what AI tools claim and what they actually do.
Check out my latest post here:
Stop Saying Python Iterators Are Eager
Hey everyone,
I joined dev about a month ago, and I've been learning a lot from all the posts I read.
I use Python mainly, but I'm also emphasizing the tech writing side, like technical documentation, which is often underrated field in tech.
If there is no topic or hashtag related to the tech writing, I'm thinking would like to start one.
Anyway, happy writing.
About Me
I’m Habibu, founder of Sentinel SCA.
I build governance and security infrastructure for autonomous systems, with a focus on runtime decision enforcement, cryptographic auditability, and execution control for AI agents.
My current work centers on Sentinel SCA, a runtime governance layer that evaluates AI actions before execution and produces signed, auditable ALLOW, REVIEW, or DENY decisions.
I’m particularly interested in AI governance, agent security, autonomous systems, cybersecurity, and building practical infrastructure that helps organizations safely deploy increasingly capable agents.
On this blog, I’ll share engineering lessons, architecture decisions, validation results, failures, and what I’m learning while building Sentinel in public.
👾 Hi everyone!
For a long time, I have been working heavily behind the scenes on closed-source projects across a wide variety of industries. Now, I want to take that knowledge and give it back. My goal is to start creating open-source applications, tools, and full-scale solutions so they can be accessible and useful to the entire world. 🌍. I build systems to solve complex problems. I focus on deep R&D, understanding processes, and engineering non-standard solutions — from writing code to designing new tools. I planning to create useful posts about my researches, new open-source projects and ergonomics tips&tricks.
Here is my "bubble" 😊:
Tech Stack
Profile
Hey, I'm John. Software architect, about 15 years in. PHP, DDD, and Clean Architecture have been my corner of the world for most of that time.
What brought me here is pretty simple: I've had a lot of opinions about writing software the right way for a long time, and I'm finally starting to put them on paper. The thing I keep coming back to is that AI coding tools are a real accelerant... but if there's nobody on the team who actually understands the domain, you're just generating a mess faster. That's the thing I want to write about.
Good to be here!
Hey!! John nice to meet you!!!❤️
Welcome to Dev
Thank you 🍻 Nice to meet you too
I'm a pre-final year B.Tech student at HBTU Kanpur building production AI systems across computer vision, tabular ML, and LLM/agentic pipelines.
My work so far: a multi-agent LLM product (Socra) handling 30 concurrent users in production at $0.022/session, a RAG system over 241 lectures achieving 0.773 faithfulness on RAGAS eval, an aerial livestock detection system for an international AgTech client (mAP@50 = 0.731), and a skin lesion classifier at 87%+ accuracy with Grad-CAM explainability.
I'm also conducting independent research on tennis match outcome prediction — a hybrid ML pipeline over 27,510 ATP matches achieving 72.4% accuracy and beating closing market odds, with a manuscript under submission.
Recently contributed to OpenLLMetry (7k★), implementing DeepSeek provider instrumentation with 121 tests — currently under review.
I work across the full AI engineering stack: PyTorch, LangGraph, FAISS, FastAPI, Docker, MLflow, Langfuse, PostgreSQL. I don't just build models — I deploy, monitor, and ship them.
Open to ML Engineer internship roles. Let's connect.
Hey, I'm Leon — solo developer based in Brisbane, Australia. I've been building local-first Python desktop apps and self-hosted AI tooling for a while now, mostly under my GitHub handle 7h3v01d. Strong believer in keeping your data on your own hardware and AI that you actually control. Currently working on UCI (Universal Capability Interface) — an open protocol for letting AI agents safely interact with your software. Just released UCI Scout, a tool that scans any Python project and tells you how agent-ready it is. Looking forward to sharing more here.
Hi. Just signed up.This was recommended by Claude as I'm doing work in Python and have applications that would be very useful for people teaching programming.
I've been programming since the 1970s, mostly in real time applications - machine control and process control. More recently I've written some iPhone apps and have developed Universal Message Manager: A project that has been on my to-do list for over 30 years. Using Claude I was able to finally develop it.
Hello DEV Community! 👋 I'm Taha — a Full-Stack & AI/ML Engineer from Pakistan.
Hey everyone! 👋
I'm Muhammad Taha Nawab, a CS student at COMSATS University Islamabad and a full-stack developer who got obsessed with making AI actually work in production — not just in notebooks.
What I build:
I work across the full stack — React, FastAPI, Node.js, PostgreSQL — but my real passion is the AI/ML layer. I've shipped things like:
🩺 A medical wound analysis platform with computer vision tissue segmentation under 5 seconds
🔬 A disease prediction system with ~90% accuracy and sub-200ms live inference
🎫 An enterprise ticketing system with SQL-trigger-based SLA escalation and real-time dashboards
I care about the gap between "it works in a Colab notebook" and "it works for real users."
What I'm learning:
Deep Learning, NLP, LLM Agents, and MLOps — working through a 12-month AI/ML program. Also going deeper on Docker, cloud-native deployment, and pgvector for RAG systems.
What I'll post here:
Lessons from building real AI/ML systems
Full-stack architecture decisions (and the mistakes that taught me)
ML + backend integration — the stuff nobody writes tutorials about
Hackathon builds and project breakdowns
I'm based in Islamabad, Pakistan 🇵🇰, open to collaborations, hackathon teams, and connecting with fellow developers and early-career engineers anywhere in the world.
Drop a comment and say hi — I'd love to know what you're building! 🚀

Hey DEV! 👋 I'm Aayush, a React Native developer from Ahmedabad, India — I build mobile apps and talk to AI agents more than I probably should.
Lately I'm focused on learning app architecture, performance, and system design — and learning to use AI agents in the best ways I can, getting hands-on with workflows and automations along the way.
Away from the screen, I keep things moving — badminton, cricket, pickleball, table tennis, or snooker.
And since the Question of the Week is the hardest bug you've faced — here's mine.
The hardest bugs aren't the crashes — they're the ones that look platform-specific but aren't.
I had a voice assistant in a cross-platform mobile app where the same command — "turn off all the lights" — worked on Android but returned "Sorry, I couldn't process that" on iPad. Same code, same input, so I wasted a while assuming it was an iPad problem.
It wasn't. The assistant uses an LLM with tool calling, and "all the lights" makes the model fire multiple tool calls at once. My code only handled the first and left the rest unanswered — but the API needs every tool call answered, and that broken exchange got saved into the chat history, so the next message failed too. Whether it showed up just came down to what was sitting in each device's saved history.
Fixed it by handling every tool call instead of just the first, plus cleaning malformed turns out of the history before each request. Lesson: when a bug looks platform-specific, check your state before you blame the platform. 😄

Hey everyone 👋
I'm Andrii from Ukraine — I'm the project manager on a small indie game called KUTO: The Lock of Time. "Team" is generous: it's basically two developers and me keeping the whole thing pointed in one direction :)
The game is a 2D action-roguelike built around one idea: when you die, time rewinds ~3 seconds instead of throwing a game-over screen at you. So dying stops being a punishment and becomes part of the fight — you watch your own death and get the moment back to fix it.
We started on top of the Corgi Engine and the guys ended up ripping a lot of it out to make that rewind state behave. We wrote up what we kept and what we threw out here, if anyone's into the messy technical side: dev.to/thelockoftime/building-a-ga...
Fun fact: the hard part was never the rewinding itself — it was getting enemies, particles and physics to all agree on what "3 seconds ago" actually means.
What's everyone else building?
Hi everyone, myself Pranav
I am a B.Tech student passionate about AI, machine learning, and software engineering. I build projects, experiment with emerging technologies, and write about what I learn along the way.
Welcome!!!❤️
Hi all, Edward here. I work on persistent memory for AI agents at Mnemoverse. I have been hiding on LinkedIn and GitHub for a while and finally got tired of pretending Dev.to was not the place where the interesting builds actually happen.
Posted my first thing this week, a take on a recent paper arguing agent memory is not a database. If you are building anything that has to remember context between sessions, I would be curious how you handle the stale parts. Memory that cannot let go quietly turns into a database full of confident lies.

Hey everyone, Nick here. I run growth and automation at a small AI-forward agency (The Good Guys) in LA, and I'm not a career engineer, which is part of what brought me here. I just open-sourced my first real software project, a memory layer for AI agents called Myco Brain, built over a few months by directing a team of AI coding agents.
Right now, I'm learning a lot of MCP, more Postgres than I expected, and how to write about technical work for people who build for a living. I want to get better at building in the open, which is why I'm finally on dev.to.
Fun fact: a year ago I couldn't have shipped a repo with passing CI by hand, and now there's one with my name on it. Still can't quite believe it works.
Glad to be here.
Hi folks, I am Sne!
I am an Account Executive, based in London. I love exploring background agents, personalisation, and editorial experiences for the Next.js and Astro apps. I am here to learn and share what I think could be valuable for the end users.
Other than work, I play tennis and speak broken Japanese.
👋 Hey DEV! I'm Jaafar — web engineer and founder of ManTek Technologies in Dubai. For ~16 years I've built the tech behind UAE newsrooms: WordPress + AWS at the kind of scale where a breaking story can 20× your traffic in minutes. Currently building NUZ, a cloud-native publishing platform.
I'll be writing about web performance, the edge, and keeping publishing systems calm under load. Just shared my first post — how we built our site for basically the price of a domain (static Astro on Cloudflare Pages).
Glad to be here!
Hey everyone — I’m devdev here. I’m a cybersecurity student and backend-leaning developer building practical portfolio projects while developing my freelance brand, devdevbuilds.
Right now I’m working on backend projects, dashboards, landing pages, brand kit assets, and cleaner technical documentation. I’m especially interested in APIs, cybersecurity fundamentals, GitHub workflows, and projects that are useful enough to explain clearly.
Currently pinned: ZeroSOC and Geofence. One is more security/backend focused, and the other leans into location logic and product-style thinking.
Glad to be here and open to connecting with other people building projects, learning in public, or slowly wrestling their portfolio into something presentable.
👋 Hi everyone, I'm Suzy Chase, a longtime NYC podcaster + creator.
Over the past year, I've been experimenting with using AI as a personal data analyst to help make sense of weight-loss maintenance, sleep, recovery, workouts, and daily health data.
That experiment turned into the GLP-1 AI Method, a framework and interactive tool I'm launching on Product Hunt next week.
I'm a non-technical creator who used AI to solve a personal problem and ended up building a product around it. Looking forward to learning from everyone here and sharing what I discover along the way.
Hello Everyone! 👋
I'm excited to join the DEV Community.

Looking forward to learning, sharing ideas, and connecting with developers, marketers, and AI enthusiasts along the way.
Happy to be here! 🚀
Hey! I'm Omkar from Pune, India 👋
I'm a fresher MERN stack developer — just finishing my BSc and figuring out this whole "becoming a real developer" thing. Did an internship last year, built a couple of projects, and now trying to go deeper into React and Node.js instead of just jumping to the next shiny thing.
Joined Dev.to because I want to start writing about what I'm actually learning — not polished tutorials, just honest notes from someone who's still in the middle of it.
What brought everyone else here? And is anyone else at that stage where you know enough to build things but still feel like you have no idea what you're doing? 😅
Hey all! Dropping in to say hello. I'm a tech leader and full-stack engineer building cross-platform web/mobile/desktop apps and open-source utilities. Looking forward to checking out everyone's builds here!
Hi everyone, my name is James. Glad to be here. I live in north Florida (very different from central and south Florida) If you love nature this is the place to be. Lots of springs and nature preserves, parks etc.
I'm a long time systems engineer (25+ years) and love automation whereever possible. Not a strong coder but have created extensive scripts.
Currently strengthening my Python skills to help with my side-pivot, machine learning. My day job is at a large University Health System administrating virtual infrastructure. I hope to learn much here and contribute when I can.
Hi everyone!
I'm João Camarate - a startup founder and CTO from Portugal (Aveiro!)
I've been building SaaS for 15+ years, doing a lot of mentorship and investing lately (after my last exit 4+ years ago) and recently I've thrown myself into the arena again and started a new company (called defract, yes its AI 😅)
I'm NodeJS/Rust guy, really familiar with AWS at global scale, PostgreSQL/REDIS lover, and I'm currently a Claude Code fanboy (which can change at any moment!)
Happy to meet you all and exchange thoughts and ideas around production grade code with AI as this revolution unfolds!
Hey everyone 👋
I'm Kamil, a full-stack developer from Poland.
Right now, I'm building MCPForge, a platform that helps developers turn OpenAPI specs into production-ready MCP servers. I've been spending a lot of time learning about MCP architecture, AI agents, security, permissions, audit logs, and governance.
I'm here to learn from other builders, share what I discover, and hopefully contribute useful insights along the way.
Fun fact: I often go down deep rabbit holes researching how AI systems are deployed in production, then turn those findings into articles and product features.
Looking forward to connecting with everyone!
Hello, everyone!
My name is Ari. I'm a Graphics Engineer from the US.
I'd heard of this site, but never knew much of what it was, so it's nice to finally be here and be all set up! I'm currently enrolled in classes over this summer: Reverse Engineering, Malware Analysis, and Offensive Network Security. This is for the purpose of finishing out my bachelor's degree. I am going into my senior year and plan to graduate in May 2027 :D
In general when I'm not too busy coding or doing 3D art, I play collegiate Overwatch for my university, play Rocket League, Counter-Strike, or other games, and watch & track the weather here in Tornado Alley (I'm a huge weather nerd), or read! I'm mostly here to learn more about what other people are venturing into both for inspiration and curiosity. I'm not much of a poster in general, but I'd still love to meet people and share things I'm learning.
It's really nice to meet you all!
Hey DEV Community! 👋
We're ByteLeaps.
We love building products, solving complex engineering challenges, and helping startups turn ideas into reality. Our team works across modern web technologies, mobile development, SaaS products, and AI-powered applications.
We're here to learn, share knowledge, write about our development journey, and connect with fellow developers and founders.
What's everyone currently building? 🚀
Hey, I'm Alex. Cybersecurity by day, building AI games and agents the rest of the time. A good chunk of what I "do" now is actually run by two agents I built and named.
One's Simona - she drives my computer, edits code, makes videos, runs my writing. The other's Marlow, a long-loop agent that writes and self-publishes a tech blog on its own, 24/7, and watches my apps for breakage. Simona built Marlow and keeps maintaining it. It works, mostly.
My best project so far is a social-deduction game where AI bots pretend to be human and play against real people. Getting a model to lie convincingly turned out way harder than getting it to hallucinate - they hide a secret role fine, but ask one to build a real bluff and every other model immediately piles on.
On the side: a cheap AI video pipeline (gen-AI motion clips stitched with ffmpeg over stills, a 2-minute piece runs about $20), a pile of local models on a self-hosted box, and a habit of coding my own little apps just to cancel subscriptions. Like a calorie-tracker or a skin care routine helper.
Nice to meet you all.

I'm a generalist who sets direction and lets AI handle execution — I ship Chrome extensions, web scrapers, data pipelines, and small digital products, mostly working solo with tools like Cursor. Lately I've been deep in scraping at scale and turning messy public data into something useful.
Here to write about what I learn building small things alone — the scraping side, the data side, and the unglamorous parts nobody warns you about. Happy to connect with other indie builders and anyone working with Python, scraping, or AI coding tools.
Fun fact: I treat every small product like one coin in a jar — none of them is big, but they add up.
Hello everyone! I'm Louise Klyde, I am an IoT & Full-Stack Software Engineer. A co-founder of NanoPrograms Software Service company, I specialize in developing software applications and IoT projects that meet the client needs.
It's my first time here in dev.to, it's a very good site specially for developers, just found this while searching and it's a pleasure be here to share projects, ideas, advices and more.
I'm still a 3rd year college student and a self taught developer that is why I advanced.
check out my web porfolio: LouiseKlyde.site

Hi everyone 👋
I'm Halim. What brought me here is the dev side of running an online store — I sell refurbished IT and office equipment, and I'm slowly learning my way around automation, a bit of JavaScript and a few APIs to make listing and inventory management less painful.
Fun fact: I probably rack, cable and stress-test more second-hand switches and servers in a week than most people see in a year. 😄
Looking forward to learning from this community!
Hi everyone, I'm an independent developer and I recently joined this community. I'm passionate about sharing technology, and I'm currently releasing my own agent framework.
I enjoy incorporating novel ideas into my projects; for example, I'm currently integrating chaos engineering into my agent framework, although it's still in beta…😀
Anyway, I'm happy to join this community, and I welcome everyone to share technology with me.
Hey everyone, I’m Michael.
I’m a solo developer building small macOS apps under QuietWare. Lately I’ve been on a roll creating useful tools, experimenting, learning, breaking things, fixing them, and slowly building a small collection of apps that feel personal and practical.
Right now my apps are free / pay-what-you-want on itch.io, and I’m sharing the journey as I go.
I’m here to connect with other developers and share what I’m building.
Excited to be here.
Hope you’re having a great day.
Hey dev.to — I'm Jason 👋
Senior engineer in Singapore. Been building backend systems for a while, but lately I've been obsessed with one question: why do AI agents forget everything between sessions?
So I built Lorekeeper — an open-source memory server for AI agents. It's the kind of tool I wish existed when I was teaching Claude my codebase and it forgot by morning every single day.
Check it out and leave a star as support! github.com/Jessinra/Lorekeeper
I'll be writing about agents, MCP, persistent memory, and building developer tools in public. Already got two posts up since joining last week — more coming.
Say hi if any of this resonates 🤝
I built this after doing 5 manual security audits on vibe-coded apps. Every single one had a critical issue. One had their Supabase anon key hardcoded in the frontend — anyone on the internet could read and write their entire database. The founder had been live for 3 weeks with paying customers and had no idea.
The goal is simple: make production-grade security accessible to non-technical founders. No jargon, no DevOps knowledge required. Just "here's what's broken, here's the fix."
We're live at vibesafe.store
Happy to audit anyone's app live in the comments — drop your GitHub URL and I'll do a quick public scan.🤫
Hi everyone 👋
Looking forward to connecting with the security and open source folks here. If you're working on detection engineering, C2 analysis, or building SaaS from emerging markets, I'd love to talk.

Hi, I’m Axel. I work in digitalization inside a company whose main product is not software which means my work sits between technology, business processes, adoption, and ownership.
I travel often to help standardize processes, give talks and my personal favorite, get my hands dirty with the process and the people behind it.
I spend most of my time thinking about how to turn operational problems into systems people actually use. Not just apps that look good in a POC, but tools that fit the way work really moves inside an organization and help change behavior.
I’m here to share what I’m learning about enterprise software, AI, inner source, collaboration, developer culture, and the messy middle between building something and getting people to trust it.
Fun fact: I have a soft spot for handmade art. I like things that feel personal, imperfect, and made by someone who actually cared.
Hello, my name is Zeeshan Zakir, and I am a MERN Stack Developer. Currently, I am working on a blogging website and a service-based website, codewithlogs.com, so that I can start earning and build a startup. I need your support and guidance. Thank you!
Hello Dev.to! 👋
I'm Arvind.
Most developers spend their time building apps, APIs, and SaaS products.
I'm currently trying to digitize a centuries-old geomantic system using rule engines, AI, and modern software architecture—which has led to some surprisingly interesting problems involving knowledge representation, conflicting authorities, and explainable reasoning.
I'm here to learn, share lessons from the journey, and connect with fellow builders interested in software architecture, AI, and unusual problem domains.
Looking forward to being part of the community.
Hi everyone 👋 I'm a developer based in Japan, building open-source tools for the LLM-agent workflow.
One thing I've been obsessing over: coding agents now draft specs and code in seconds — but a human still has to read the docs and give feedback. I'm building a tool to speed up that review step.
I wrote my first post here about that problem and a structured-feedback approach to solve it:
The next bottleneck after AI writes your code is reviewing the docs it writes
Planning to write more about single-file HTML tooling and building for the Claude Code / MCP ecosystem. Happy to connect with anyone working on AI dev tooling.
Hi there team!
My name is Jan and currently residing in England. I've spent a lot of time this year writing OSS and I wanted to share it and learn from everyone. I'm currently into all things node.js, json parsing, binary encodings and general make-things-go-faaaaaasst type of work so if you're interested in those, would love to chat!
Ello everyone! 👋
I’m an AV technician at the UEA (Norwich, UK). I've recently been diving into coding—starting with Python and exploring full-stack web app architecture.
I've been focusing a lot on AI-assisted development to help bridge the gap from hardware to software. I just published my first major side project, Shared Pulse (shared-pulse.base44.app), which is a completely anonymous, serverless map built without a user database to see the world's real-time frequency.
Looking forward to connecting with other solo developers, swapping notes on leveraging AI for building, and learning from the community! 🙂
ola, I work as a cloud infrastructure consultant. I'm doing ML studies and certifications on the side and want a place to engage and be inspired to do cool things. Dev.to looks to be a very positive community, something I've been witnessing becoming more and more rare these days. Happy to be here.
Hey everyone! I'm a CS student aiming to become a professional game developer.
To practice my fundamentals (physics, loops, and math) before jumping into heavy game engines, I built a web application using pure vanilla JavaScript and HTML5 Canvas with zero dependencies.
• It simulates planet gravity/air drag, mixes RGB colors mathematically, and checks WCAG contrast accessibility in real-time.
I'm here to connect with other developers and learn as much as I can.
• 🌐 Check it out live: Space Art Calculator Demo
• 📦 See the code: GitHub Repository
Would love to hear your feedback on the physics or canvas setup. Happy to be here! 🚀

Hi, I'm new here at Dev.to and I just wanted to share a little bit I have going on, my favorite tool is my diesel scan tool with read write access and claude powered ai integration and It houses cummins, mac, and Detroit with additions of what ever you want under one gui, and I had issues with getting JavaScript to automatically deploy and configure itself to the user environment. I have all kind of versions. jsx, apk, ps1, and .exe. I got everything working down to the terminal outputs with no GUI. Just terminal based readings I'm still working out kinks.
Hi everyone 👋
I’m new to Dev.to and excited to be here. I’m currently exploring cloud computing, DevOps, and machine learning, and I enjoy learning how modern systems are built and deployed.

What’s up, internet? I finally decided to stop lurkin’ in the shadows, reading your brilliant articles at 3 AM while my code refuses to compile, and actually create an account.
I’m a developer who loves building things, breaking things, and then staring blankly at the screen wondering which of my three personality traits (Python, Node.js, or Go) caused the crash.
Since we’re getting to know each other, here is how my brain splits up my tech stack.
Hi everyone! I recently discovered this community and joined to share what I’ve learned while developing and validating two AI frameworks for enterprise code generation. In my testing, they reduced AI usage by roughly 90%. My approach differs from common practices centered on adding more agents or context, so I’m looking forward to sharing my ideas, learning from others, and joining the conversation. 👋
Hi everyone! I’m Ata Can Yaymacı, a Full Stack Software Specialist and Software Development Project Specialist based in İzmir, Turkey.
What brought me here: I’m passionate about open-source and constantly looking for ways to bridge the gap between complex backend architectures and user-facing applications. I’ve been heavily involved in building out full-stack ecosystems, particularly with Java, React, Python, and TypeScript.
What I'm working on/learning: Lately, I’ve been diving deep into integrating AI agents into software workflows—specifically working on RAG and vector database implementations. I recently launched a Python package called Lumina (for 3D-printable lithophanes and spiral art) and have been working on an open-data SDK for the İzmir Metropolitan Municipality.
You can check out my projects and follow my latest work on my GitHub profile: github.com/AtaCanYmc
I’m always open to discussing new technologies, collaborative projects, or just connecting with fellow developers. Looking forward to being a part of this community!"
Fun fact: When I’m not coding, you’ll likely find me in my workshop—I'm quite active in 3D printing and IoT prototyping. My current focus is experimenting with ESP32 microcontrollers and Meshtastic configurations.
Looking forward to connecting with everyone!
