Hi everyone! 👋 I'm Viacheslav — I build ViBo, memory infrastructure for AI agents: semantic recall across sessions, up to 50–150× token savings, anti-hallucination verification, and memory security (snapshot + poison-scan against prompt injection). I spend my days in the agent-tooling space — shipping open-source skills and testing community ones. Happy to help newcomers: ask me anything about agent memory, prompt-injection defense, or building your first agent skill. Welcome! 🚀

Hi everyone! I'm Zakaria, a developer based in Casablanca. I mostly build small web tools and side projects — my latest is a free, privacy-first image compressor/converter that runs entirely in the browser. Excited to be part of the community, looking forward to learning from other builders here!

Hi Zakaria! 👋 That image compressor project sounds super useful—privacy-first and browser-based is definitely the way to go. Looking forward to seeing more of your side projects around here!

BootSaaS

Hello, I'm a software engineer focused on web development, particularly Java and Spring Boot.

I've worked across different areas of software development, from Android and embedded systems to web applications. Over time, I found myself particularly drawn to building enterprise-grade web apps and SaaS products.

While working on these projects, I noticed that many of them share the same foundations, such as authentication, security, infrastructure, multi-tenancy, and all the other plumbing that needs to be in place before building the actual product.

That observation led me to build my own Spring Boot & Angular boilerplate, BootSaaS, while also exploring better ways to build and structure software.

Here on DEV, I hope to share what I learn, build, and discover along the way. Looking forward to learning from the community as well!

Hey everyone! 👋

I'm an indie developer focused on building privacy-first, client-side web tools.

Currently, I'm working on VestingGap.com—a zero-login RSU tax shortfall simulator built for tech employees facing statutory 22% withholding gaps. All calculations run 100% in the browser, keeping sensitive personal financial data completely private.

Glad to join the dev.to community and looking forward to sharing insights, connecting with fellow builders,and getting feedback on my projects!

Hi, everyone. I'm COO at Raxis, a US pentesting company. Many moons ago I started my career as a Java, Oracle, and web developer at UNC before joining Raxis as a pentester. Now I watch our pentesting team figure out some pretty cool stuff. We have a blog of their tutorials and important updates for IT folks. I'll be reposting some of our blogs for developers here. It's always great to see when folks work security into their SDLC process. It might make for a boring pentest, but that makes us all more secure, right?!

Hi everyone! 👋 I've been exploring no-code and lightweight web-building tools lately — mainly Carrd for quick landing pages and portfolios. Excited to be part of this community and learn from what others are building. Looking forward to sharing what I pick up along the way!

Andrii Volodko

Hey everyone! I’m Andrii, a developer with 15+ years of experience, mostly working with TypeScript, JavaScript, WebGL, and HTML5 game development.

I joined DEV.to to learn from other developers, explore new ideas, and share some of the things I’m building. Lately I’ve been experimenting with game engines, visual editors, AI-assisted development, and some pretty weird simulations.

Fun fact: I can spend an unreasonable amount of time turning a “small weekend project” into a full-blown engine.

Looking forward to discovering what everyone here is building!

Hi Dev.to community. I am Oz Uzair, a Software Developer Engineer turned founder of Task Lemon. I spend most of my time building solutions for devs using Task Lemon.

Recently, my engineering focus has been on intent-driven AI architecture specifically, replacing unpredictable conversational AI with strict, deterministic backend pipelines through Prompt-Oriented Programming (PoP). I am here to learn how others are managing API integrations and strict JSON schemas in production, and to share my own findings. Glad to be here and looking forward to connect with everyone!
