Writing your first — or your hundredth — blog post is a challenge. What if nobody reads your post? Or someone leaves a rude comment? Or you get a technical detail wrong? And, how do you feel confident enough to press the publish button? Ali has navigated all these situations in the past year and a half that she’s been writing. She’ll tell her story and why she still writes and publishes technical blog posts. Ali is a software engineer at DEV. Before that, she was a lead instructor at General Assembly. She loves Python, JavaScript, and talking about code.
