Thank you all for the support! ❤️

This was an incredible journey for me and it means a lot. 🙏

As always, I’ll try to provide as much value as possible to help you grow as a Software Engineer by sharing my real-life experience, mistakes, and learned lessons.

🤑 Lower Prices for Paid Subscriptions

I'm lowering the paid subscription price from $6 to $5 after doing several customer interviews and talking with some of you about the price.

All benefits for the paid subscribers are not changed.

I'm working on adding new stuff and enriching the paid subscription benefits.

💬 New Subscriber Chat

Today I’m announcing a brand new addition to my Substack publication: The T-Shaped Dev subscriber chat where I want to provide additional value and get closer to you.

This is a conversation space exclusively for subscribers—kind of like a group chat or live hangout. I’ll post questions and updates that come my way, and you can jump into the discussion.

How to get started

1. Get the Substack app by clicking this link or the button below. New chat threads won’t be sent sent via email, so turn on push notifications so you don’t miss conversation as it happens. You can also access chat on the web.

2. Open the app and tap the Chat icon. It looks like two bubbles in the bottom bar, and you’ll see a row for my chat inside.

3. That’s it! Jump into my thread to say hi, and if you have any issues, check out Substack’s FAQ.
