{ DevFest Addis 2025 }👨🏾💻👩🏾💻 DevFest Addis 2025 hosted by
Google Developers Group Addis (GDG Addis) was an interactive and inspiring one day event. The space was open for networking with fellow designers 🎨 and programmers ⌨️
🎤 Guest speakers were awesome people, and the founder of
Jami couldn't inspire me more 🔥
💭 Since I was not coding much recently, I wasn't active on the Fest to network with other programmers. I felt like I need to code more 🍀
On the event, I got these points:
⚫️ Think beyond coding. Think about problem solving.
⚫️ Leverage AI, learn from it and go to solving problems.
⚫️ Have a GROWTH mindset.
⚫️ Whenever you are building, build scalable, secure and stable products. Start AI as a feature, not as a foundation.
👨🏾🏫 For the panels, I have joined Track #1:
Open Source Is the Shortcut: Start with Side Projects, End with a Career. I wasn't paying attention but these ideas crossed me:
👉🏾 Your code becomes your reputation.
👉🏾 Open Source Software (OSS) teaches you real skills.
New Terms (for the beginner me 😁)
✍🏾 MVP = Minimum Viable Product
✍🏾 OSS = Open Source Software
