Something I wish I had started doing much earlier in my career was writing about the things I was... Tagged with career, writing.

Dev.to is a community platform for developers, offering resources, discussions, and networking opportunities to empower individuals in their coding journey. Developers can learn new programming languages, frameworks, and tools, engage in discussions on best practices, and share their experiences with fellow developers to enhance their skills and grow their professional network.

Writing down what you learn is important for solidifying knowledge, sharing with others, and preparing to teach or share knowledge in your career.

Write It Down

Totally agree ! Writing about what you learn helps reinforce your knowledge and can benefit others. It’s a win-win! If it’s worth knowing, it’s worth writing about. 📚✨

This was a great read; thank you!
As a Developer for over a decade, I started to get a good writing habit.
But did not write or share too much about what I have learned in software.
But, have recently started on that path.
I like your phrase: “If it’s worth knowing, it’s worth writing about.”

Writing things down is the only way I know that I’ve understood something enough that it will sit in my brain.

I wholeheartedly agree! Documenting your learning through writing serves to solidify your understanding and can also be advantageous to others. It is a mutually beneficial practice. If the information is deemed valuable, it is certainly worth documenting.

I use markdown files and upload them to a repo on github.
Formatting is quick and easy and remember most markdown editors support code syntax highlighting for many languages - my choice of editor for markdown is visual studio code.
