HELPFUL LINKS TO LEARNING RESOURCES

YouTube has a lot of good series on it if you're just getting started.

Learn x in Y Minutes - Pretty straight forward knowledge dump for a variety of programming languages

Code.org - Super basic intro to programming and making games. Is good for all ages.

Coursera - Computer science based courses, mostly from universities and colleges, can be done for free but if you pay you can get certificates.

udemy - Mostly payed courses but if you keep an eye out for a sale you can get good prices.

And of course /r/learnprogramming has a massive list of learning resources.

/r/cscareerquestions is a great place to seek career advice.

/r/AskComputerScience a great community for other computer science questions.

/r/programminghelp can offer assistance with any debugging or troubleshooting issues.

/r/algorithms full of knowledgeable folk to explore algorithms & data structures and their time/space complexities with.

/r/cshighschoolers High school computer science group

Hey, looking for a buddie.

My case is some special because english is not my first language, so i need someone with patience o directly someone who speak spanish mi TZ is GMT-5, and i have rotative shifts in the work and that's something to consider. Please dm me if you are interested. Fell free and drop them in the replies.

Seeking 2-4 collaborators for Python + LLM project

Hi Reddit!

I'm seeking 2-4 people to collaborate on a Python project with an LLM component. Some possible directions include:

  • a library that helps other projects to dynamically find relevant HuggingFace models
  • a command line app that takes a path or URL to some git or GitHub project and returns a bunch of statistics plus a generated summary of the project structure
  • a web service that takes a URL and performs an intelligent search for given keywords on that page plus anything directly linked from it

All of these are just ideas. I'm happy to explore anything somewhat-aligned and anything not-at-all-aligned. The purpose of this project is to build something meaningful and have fun with a few like minded individuals while showcasing my collaboration skills.

About you

You're interested in building something with LLMs or generative transformers. You would like to get a small taste of what it's like to build software in a team of equals. You are comfortable writing basic Python and you have some experience with any of: generators, interacting with APIs, concurrency (asyncio or threading), or defining your own classes. You're confident that you can dedicate 1-2 hours per week to this project for the next ~8 weeks.

People of any nationality, race, religion, political affiliation, sexual orientation, or gender identity are welcome to reply. Nobody will be asked to share any of this information if they don't want to, and nobody will be judged or otherwise affected should they choose to share.

I don't know Python but I know...

If you would like to contribute in a different language this is something we can explore. For a smaller project like this, using multiple languages may become confusing; but if a specific sub-problem can be solved better/faster/easier in a different language then the pros may outweigh the cons.

About me

I'm a 35yo father of four and recent BSc Software Development graduate. I have experience with automation of customer service processes, and that's where I'm positioning myself in the market.

Regarding my experience & ability: I've been writing Python programs continuously, although not professionally, for around three years. I enjoy working test-first (this is not something I require or expect from anyone else) and after having worked a bit with C# I've become a big fan of adding type information to any programs bigger than a single file. If you want to know more please check out my final year project or my most recent project.

About the project

Everybody gets commit access to the project -- I'm not interested in being the sole owner or gatekeeper here. We will be using the GitHub Flow for collaboration. In accordance with GitHub Flow, everybody works on feature branches and everybody has their PRs reviewed by at least one other member of the team.

For communication between group members I'm leaning towards some combination of email and Discord, but I'm happy to explore alternatives.

Get in touch!

If this sounds like your kind of project, please leave a comment or send me a DM. If possible please include a link to some recent project that you worked on or contributed to.

Athuna: New Open-Source Blogging Platform looking for Collaborators!

Hey there!
About a week ago I started creating the Blogging Platform "Athuna" as an OSS Project focused on

  • SEO
  • Speed
  • Customizable Designs

The Tech Stack is quite interesting too! We got something for everyone I think:

  • Athuna Creator: This is going to be the Blog Management Software. It will be a downloadable desktop (and possibly mobile) application written in Rust with Dioxus (which is based on Tauri) and Tailwind.
  • Athuna Blog: The Webserver will be written in Svelte with Sveltekit and Tailwind.
  • Athuna API: This is the Heartpiece, connecting databases, other APIs, the Creator and the Blog. Highly scalable and modern as a Cloudflare Native Worker App written in Rust with the Actix Framework.

If you are interested in shaping this with us from the very beginning, check out the Repos linked above or join our discord server!

PS: Your experience level is less important than actually doing something, so dont be shy!

Happy coding!

Web dev partner

I am looking for someone to get back into web dev with, I had been programming with the MERN stack for around 8 months or so and then lost traction for a few months. I have never worked with anyone else, and I know that doing so would be a lot better for consistency. I have a small amount of experience with Java and python, and I would not mind working on projects with those languages either, but I will probably be spending more time in the documentation with those languages.

Coding Buddy for making a cool real world project

Looking for a great buddy who is into full stack dev.
I'm a backend dev mainly, but generallist in a lot of tech fields, currently working as a software dev Intern, but I still don't have good projects, not just to showcase but ones that actual people use. I want to build real world projects from scratch.

If you're up for the same thing, let's discuss. It doesn't have to be groundbreaking, but hopefully something that can turn into a open source project with a lot of people making contributions to and improving forward.

Looking for a Chill Coding Buddy (With a Love for Games , BP or/and C++, Ts and Web)

On the hunt for a new buddy who’s into programming, especially around game development, also into TS and web stuff. Mainly been working on some game dev projects (Unreal Engine vibes), and it’d be awesome to have someone to share ideas, collab, or just nerd out and gameplay design with!

Bonus points if you’re into figuring out all the nitty-gritty of game mechanics, enjoy chats or game breaks, and are down to keep each other motivated.

Frontend Mentorship

Hi all! I’m a front end engineer with 5 years experience and currently at Amazon.

Are you not getting interviews? Struggling with interview prep? Still a beginner and starting to learn frontend?

I posted here a few weeks ago about offering frontend mentorship and tutoring, and since then I’ve taken on a few students, one of which just landed his first job! Here’s what he had to say:

“I’m immensely grateful for the guidance and support I received from James during my job search. His expertise and insights were invaluable at every step. From thoroughly reviewing my CV and LinkedIn profile to offering practical advice on applying and interviewing, he helped me refine my approach and showcase my strengths. His tips and encouragement gave me the confidence to pursue and eventually land a role as a Frontend engineer. I truly couldn’t have done it without his help. Thank you, James, for your mentorship and kindness!”

Im taking on more students, and if you’d like to start 1-1 sessions, DM me and we can set up a call to discuss your career, goals, and if this would be a good fit!

CS student looking for friends/groups

Hey everyone. I've been learning Python for around 3-4 years and I'm in my junior year of college majoring in CS. I've only made a few friends from school but want to find some people that I might be able to talk with more consistently. Most of the projects I've worked on have been solo ventures and are quite small in scope so I'd be interested in collaborating on some projects as well. I'm also familiar with JavaScript and interested in learning C++.

If anyone is aware of any groups that meet up online on a consistent basis, I'd be really interested to join those as well! Thanks for reading :)

Lightweight Rest API with admin panel and docker 👌

Hey 👋 reddit ProgrammingBuddies users.

If you are not in mood to read just visit: https://github.com/mikebgrep/forkapi

I want to present on your attention an new extensible RestAPI with admin panel which can hold your recipes collection on a self hosted instance and you can hackaround to design a client.

Little bit about the API. The api is designed to be easy to use without to much hustle solution the authentication for the read only endpoints is with header secret. There are an endpoints that support and token authentication but they are for create and update the recipes.

You can take a look of the docs https://mikebgrep.github.io/forkapi/ There a full description from start to deploy the API.

I am planing to release and web interface to consume the recipes and a mobile application but this will be soon.

Star the repo and stay tuned ✨️ 😎 Keep an eye on the read me I will make update there.

Looking for programming buddies to motivate me to focus on program

I am still new to programming and gotten stuck with the "A.I hell" wherein I got used to asking chatgpt for answers, I learned a lot however I can't focus too long while programming. I am looking for friends/programming buddies who are still learning Javascript, HTML, and CSS to program with. I am a complete beginner sooo having more developer friends would be nice :>
