DEV just passed 1 million registered members, and the 1 millionth is @devintelbyte 😆.
Thank you to all those who have been along along for the ride, and we hope you have been enriched by at least one thing you've read on DEV. I suspect you have.
We're deep in the continuous process of reinvention, and growth of all kind to ensure that we provide a valuable experience for the whole developer ecosystem. This would not be possible without all 1 million of those registered members (even the spam bots and hackers, who have helped us develop a resilient system). It's exciting to take a moment to celebrate this milestone.
Of those registered members are 669 individuals who have committed code to Forem, the open source technology that powers DEV — and our core team members, past and present.
Here's to the first million, and our collective efforts to create a welcoming environment for the next million!
Happy coding!
