Reminder: #Fediverse #Developer Network meetup in about 12 hours: Wednesday June 5th at 9:00am pacific.

You are all invited, particularly if you are a #developer new to ActivityPub and the #fediverse, or if you have an existing implementation and are interested in the first round of test results from @feditest!

Details are on https://fedidevs.org

We are thinking of hosting a periodic "Welcome to the Fediverse! Ask your fellow developers anything!" online meetup.

Many people are now looking at developing for the Fediverse, as this week's announcements show, and we know it can be daunting to get started. Maybe other developers can help?

Thoughts?

@andypiper (with a little bit of help from @J12t) ran a session about the Fediverse Developer Network at #FediForum this week. There were about 25 people in the session, so there's quite some interest!

Slides and notes will be up on the fediforum.org site shortly.

The recording of our Fediverse Developer Network meeting yesterday is now online: https://fedidevs.org/notes/2024-03-07/ and there are meeting notes, too.

Main subject was an early show-and-tell-and-feedback of FediTest, developing a #testsuite for the #Fediverse.

Thanks @andypiper running the meeting and making the recording.

For more updates on #FediTest, follow @feditest.

@andypiper and @J12t are going to restart FediDevs meetups, starting next Thursday March 7.

Main topic: FediTest early show-and-tell and ask for feedback. More details: https://fedidevs.org/notes/2024-03-07/

Have topics for future meetups? Bring them on!

We have 26 responses so far on our Fediverse developer platform survey. That must mean there are at least 26 #Fediverse developers in the world 🙂

There are some clear trends already. For example, nobody develops Fediverse apps on Windows ARM (not much of a surprise there) and Fediverse developers generally know lots about Linux.

If you are fediverse developer, take 5 minutes and add your voice?

Will publish results probably after the holidays.
