In their own words

CodeNewbie started as a weekly Twitter chat to connect people learning to code by Saron Yitbarek. Since then, it's grown into a supportive, international community of people learning to code. Whether you're in need of early-career mentorship or you've just graduated from bootcamp and you're ready to pass along some wisdom, the CodeNewbie community is your place to champion beginner programmers, get support, and talk about the field of programming. In January 2020, CodeNewbie was acquired by Forem, the open source software company behind DEV — and this very site! Together, both communities have become a large support system for programmers of all levels, offering podcasts, Twitter chats, the annual CodeLand conference, hackathons, a platform for developers to write about their knowledge and experience, and connection with one another. We are so happy to have you as part of the CodeNewbie + Forem family. 💚 Happy coding!
