🚨 ANNOUNCEMENTS 🚨
Our community launched this week!
We had a very successful community launch on Thursday and it was thanks to all of you. Huge shoutout to Codeland Conf and the team over at Forem for allowing us to participate in their awesome conference as a sponsor.
We also hosted a Developer advocacy AMA Twitter Space yesterday that was rich with amazing content, speakers, and attendees. We can’t thank everyone who participated enough, it was successful because of the folks who joined—we just brought people together!
We’re planning to do a Twitter Space every week on the topic of the week. Next weeks topic is Building Your Personal Website (as a developer advocate). Join our Twitter Space at 12pm CST/7pm CET
PS: We’re always looking for Twitter Space speakers & content contributors, let us know if you’re interested in contributing. 🙌
