Please comment with what communities you would like to be added here.
For mod creation I need both the url style name (experienced_devs
) and the Display name (Experienced Devs
)
Hi @snowe,
Would it be possible to request a community for
mercurial
, ref: https://mercurial-scm.org/ ?Thanks
hi, could you post in the !community_request@programming.dev community? Sorry, we’ve pretty much stopped using this thread, and made it vote based now.
Sure, thanks for that and for the good work :)
Would love a PowerShell or at least general scripting/automation community
Howdy, another “new instance” admin just cruising by your instance to check it out, looks cool and a great focus! If you have Experienced Devs probably good to have Junior Devs too, or one focused on learning resources.
Would something like
/r/baduibattles
fit here?It’s gone private but here are some examples of the type of content:
https://goulartnogueira.github.io/BadUI/Just people making silly UIs for fun.
Can we have a “Gnome Development” community please? I’ll mod it.
Created! !gnome_dev@programming.dev Post there and we’ll make you mod
Done!
Is there a place here (whether a community or just a thread somewhere) for self promotion? Sort of a “show off what you’ve been working on this week” sort of deal?
Hm. I’m not sure. You could make a request in !community_request@programming.dev and see if others are interested
Saw that a python community is still missing. Currently getting more and more into it, so would be nice.
Done! If you post in it I’ll make you a mod if you want! :)
Request for a general (Unix) shell community! (
shell
andShell Scripting
) I made !shell@itjust.works, so you can tell my intentions if you read the sidebar there. I’m having issues making posts there, though, and this instance makes more sense. I’m a current mod at /r/bash, and intend to reach out to the mods of sister subreddits if they want to join.I originally was intending on all shell languages, but since we now have !powershell, I’d be fine with restricting it to Unix shells. I don’t know pwsh or batch well anyway, I’d have to ask pwshguy to help!
Why not lang-specific communities like !bash?
- Scripting fundamentals translate very well between languages, not to mention tools like awk, jq, and others are common to many.
- In practice, there was a far more overlap than not within the different subreddits; both users and content.
If you disagree with combining sister languages as a policy, that’s fine! I’d request both
bash
/The Bourne-Again Shell
andzsh
/The Z Shell
.Done! https://programming.dev/c/shell
Post there and I’ll make you mod!
Some playtesting communities for game Dev Playmygame, destroymygame Would be great
I have some ideas:
- postgresql PostgreSQL
- astro Astro
- nuxt Nuxt
- wasm WebAssembly
I’d love to see a functional programming community (url name:
fp
, display nameFunctionalProgramming
). I’m most interested in Haskell, but it might be best to start with a larger umbrella and split into smaller communities if/when there’s a sufficiently large userbase to justify it.Can we get a “Svelte” community, for all things Svelte and SvelteKit - url name (sveltejs) display name (SvelteJS).
sorry, I never responded! it looks like Ategon handled it for you.
Perhaps a Git community would also make sense. URL:
git
, Display name:Git
. I can be the mod for now just to get it started. But I think I would rather hand it over to someone else when the community grows.I would like to request a community for Nim and I volunteer to moderate it.
Hey, community requests got moved over to the https://programming.dev/c/community_request community
Theres a nim thread currently there so make sure to upvote that and say you want to moderate it in the thread
Thanks!
Hey! Can we have one for Go as well?
there’s a three character limit on community names for some reason. how about
go_lang
? orgolang
? andGo
for the community name?The one on reddit uses r/golang so let’s stick with that
