We've been wanting to create a more welcoming experience for new community members and make sure everyone is aware of some key dev.to features. For example, not everyone knows that following a tag actually customizes their dev.to home feed with more relevant content. This is particularly useful for surfacing more niche programming topics directly onto your feed.

We'll continuously improve new member onboarding as the site evolves, but here's what the first iteration looks like:

1. Quick Overview

2. Shows popular tags

3. Encourages new members to get involved

Next up: including a slide that lets people follow their twitter friends and/or popular dev.to writers from the topics they care about.
