Developer Avocados 🥑 Weekly - Issue 10
Developer Avocados 🥑 Weekly
We've started the newsletter 2 months ago because we were trying to fill a gap, trying to help more people get better Developer Avocados 🥑. It's not only for the ones already in the industry, but also for those trying to break into the industry.
Whenever we meet all of you at events it warms our heart when we get feedback. We love it when people tell us on twitter they love it and we should keep going. But we wanted to get some constructive feedback, to help us make it better.
Please consider filling out the survey, it should take about 2 minutes. Check all options that apply or add your own. https://developeravocados.typeform.com/to/CjkzBO​
