🌟 #DEVImpact2023 Reflections

Pachi 🥑 - Dec 20 '23 - - Dev Community

Proud Moments

I am thrilled and proud to see the growth in the posts in Portuguese, using the #braziliandevs tag. I have been heavily advocating DEV to the Brazilian community, and this year I saw soo many awesome articles in Portuguese!

DEV Contributions

I think 2023 was the year I wrote the most articles for Dev, both in English and Portuguese. If I am not mistaken, 27 so far and we still have a few weeks to go! So, I'm hoping to end the year with 30 articles.

Brilliant Fails

I haven't had any fails I consider brilliant this year, honestly, it was tough! I lost my dad, months after I lost my job and I am still jobless. So I guess I am just proud I took time for myself when I needed it and that I kept going.
Still looking for a new job tho 🥲

Future Goals

I don't know... I am still looking for a new job so my hopes and dreams for 2024 are a mystery yet.

What Does DEV Means to You?

DEV means a lot to me.
From the very beginning of my developer journey, I was here. I made some awesome friends here.
And once I transitioned to Developer Relations it became an important working tool.
It is my very favorite place on the internet.
