Saw that a python community is still missing. Currently getting more and more into it, so would be nice.

Can we have something like nostupidquestions but for computer science/software engineering topics? Would be very helpful for beginners and could probably be a pool where people can ask stupid questions without fear.

Suggestion for a programmer humor community similar to r/ProgrammerHumor (display name Programmer Humor slug can be something like programmerhumor or programmer_humor)

What about a community for programming teachers? I work as a computer teacher in what in Spain is called Professional Studies. We teach IT in general (hardware, databases, programming, networking...), and maybe it could be nice to have a community where teachers and general programmers can meet and help to layout the best ways to teach new programmers.

Editing to add:

Url: teach_programming

Display Name: Teach Programming

Hey! Can we have one for Go as well?

Would love one for javascript if possible.

I'd love to see a functional programming community (url name: fp , display name FunctionalProgramming). 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.

Could we get a CSharp community? So /c/csharp, display name C# (or C Sharp)

Could we get a sysadmin community please?

And a privacy community?

Thanks

I would like too add neovim/Neovim community.

Could we get programminghorror (Programming Horror) please? I've got some content to post 😆

C++! cpp and C++ I guess?

CSCareerQuestions with this exact URL, please. I searched for this name on the programming.dev instance and was led to this comment that suggests ask_experienced_devs is a replacement for CSCQ, but /r/CSCQ had a different focus from /r/experienceddevs. Junior developers and interns were also allowed to contribute to CSCQ and the discussions were specifically focused on finding work in the CS industry, while ask_experienced_devs implies that any kind of question directed at senior devs is allowed.

CSMajors (discussion for CS undergrads) and an EngineeringResumes (rate my resume) equivalent would also be great to see.

Should we have a "General" or "Other" community as well? Possibly "random"

A general webdev one would be nice, I think we could match the Reddit naming convention of using just Webdev and webdev

Can we have commandline (both url and display name)? In order to share recommendations & news about software that runs on the terminal, without a UI.

Some playtesting communities for game Dev Playmygame, destroymygame Would be great

Can we have a general cloud engineering community? Something encompassing the Azure/AWS/GCS and others for news, Instructables etc. /c/loud would be perfect :)

Can we get a community for esoteric languages? Maybe “esolangs” for the url to copy the old subreddit, and Esoteric Languages for the display name?

I'm not a local programming.dev resident, but I'd be interested in a code golf community.

It could be really fun to host/participate in challenge threads, and posts about some fun golfs.

Would love to see a Flutter community!

I have some ideas:

• postgresql PostgreSQL
• astro Astro
• nuxt Nuxt
• wasm WebAssembly

Request for a Godot community (godot and Godot for slug and display name). There's one over in lemmy.ml but that one is rather dead and figure it makes more sense to have it in here

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.

Request for a general (Unix) shell community! (shell and Shell Scripting) I made [email protected], 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?

1. Scripting fundamentals translate very well between languages, not to mention tools like awk, jq, and others are common to many.
2. 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 and zsh/The Z Shell.

I wonder if there would be some interest in looking into DDD (Domain Driven Design) here. I intend to study the topic and wouldn't mind some company :) I can also serve as the mod, if that's a necessity.

URL style name: ddd
Display name: Domain Driven Design

Could we get terraform and pulumi?

Can we get a "Svelte" community, for all things Svelte and SvelteKit - url name (sveltejs) display name (SvelteJS).

Anyone else game for a Django community? I can help mod if you need.

Can we have one for LaTeX (both url and display name)? Thanks!

Can we get one for engineering management?

Url: engineering_managers

Display name: Engineering Managers

dotnet community would be nice. Display name .NET. And I could moderate it as well.

Edit: We should have docker Docker too.

I think we should have linux community, display Linux

Could we get an Angular community (angular)?

can we get !laravel please?

@[email protected] , would you like to pair up again to form a !/c/robotics community?

I'm thinking it'd be nice to have a community to post about general robotics news. media, and events that are unrelated to ROS. Perhaps something like a smaller informal version of https://www.robotics-worldwide.org/, but maybe not so academic. So, a little more community oriented and general dev oriented, where folks could re-post maker like robotics content like this:

• The Fastest Maze-Solving Competition On Earth
  • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMQbHMgK2rw
  • Videos like this don't have anything to do with ROS, as none of the competitors are using that middleware software.

So far for !/c/ros , I've been hesitant to divert ROS specific traffic away from their existing online platforms; as soliciting direct questions or discussions could fragment the already-small ROS community from their official sites. Yet !/c/ros might be a bit too narrow in scope for the example content above.

@[email protected] , suppose this'd still be in scope of this instance?

• URL style name: robotics
• Display name: Robotics

How about a perl community? I think just ‘perl’ and ‘Perl’ for the names.

I'd like a programming language and compiler community like r/ProgrammingLanguages: recent developments, personal projects, opinions and ideas, and general questions

Display name: Programming Languages

URL: ProgrammingLanguages

I have no experience with it, but I noticed there is no community for Julia (both url and display name). The locked down subreddit had almost 23,000 subscribers (if you build it, they will come ;) ).

I think we should have opensource, display Open Source community

Can we get the C programming language?
Maybe a typescript one too?

Display name: Kubernetes

URL: kubernetes

A TrueNAS community would be nice.

/c/truenas TrueNAS

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.

"inexperienced devs" or whatever cscareerquestions equivalent.

Hi @snowe,

Would it be possible to request a community for mercurial , ref: https://mercurial-scm.org/ ?

Thanks

Can we have a "Gnome Development" community please? I'll mod it.

vuejs, Vue.js please

A datascience community would be awesome.

Would love a PowerShell or at least general scripting/automation community

!sdl would be nice

/c/emacs Emacs

/c/lisp LISP (before it eventually splits off into elisp, cl, scheme, racket, etc. communities)

what about !html? We already have !css

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.

I'd like to request a developer-specific Android community - a la r/androiddev. The existing Android one is more about the ecosystem, not about development.

A Kubernetes community would also be interesting, if its more development focused. So url style (kubernetes) and displayname (Kubernetes)

A Clojure community would be cool

url: clojure display: Clojure

I'd be willing to moderate an emulation community, at least while it gets up and going. Maybe "Emulator Development" "emudev"?

Hi, would love to have a general Swift programming community, which will host the general discussion of Swift, SwiftUI, Xcode...etc for developing Apple ecosystem apps and tools.

url: swift

Hi. I'm interested in android community.
Url can be: android
Thank you!

I would like a community for useful, hype-free, programming-oriented discussion about AI.

We could call it “Actually Useful AI” (URL name: “actually_useful_ai” (but I’m open to other suggestions).

I can also moderate it if needed.

EDIT: the URL name could also be "auai", probably it's better to keep it short.

Can we get a "V" community? "Vlang" will also work.

Ok, I'm gonna do it. I can already hear the banter 🫣

java/Java

Display name: Nix / NixOS

URL: nix

I would like one for DevOps and Cloud or for Cloud Specifics like AWS, Google Cloud and Azure, but i don't have time to mod, have a lot on my plate already ^^

/c/asm (Assembly)

/c/ide (IDE)

Hi there, I would like to request to open an XR dev community for AR/VR/MR related development.

Should we make a programmer hiring community as I can't seem to find one and it seems like a good thing ('dev_hiring') ('Developer Hiring')

I see we have !ruby but can we also get !rails as well.

I miss 'CoolGithubProjects' aka Cool GitHub Projects

im a member of a different instance so im not sure if im allowed to comment, but id like to see an equivalent to r/programmingcirclejerk, a sub thats buried in like 10 levels of irony.

I think we should have a ros community (display name ROS).

Yo can we get one minecraft 'mc_dev' 'Minecraft Development'

Would wordpress and web hosting communities be a fit here? Happy to be involved in it.

A mobile development focused, language / framework agnostic community would be cool. Or if it needs to be specific I'd like to see a React Native community.

/c/mobiledev | Mobile Development || /c/reactnative | React Native

AutoHotkey please.

Edit: URL can be ahk

Voting for a Scala community, then :)

What about a general programming news community, kind of like Hacker News?

I don't know if we are limiting the frameworks we are covering, but I have r ally been enjoying Solid.js maybe URL(solid) display (Solid)?

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?

Would love a voxel game development specific community, url name - (voxel_dev) and display name - (Voxel Game Dev)

I'm a .NET developer myself, so a .NET community would be cool.

Can we get the sysadmin community? And a privacy community?

I would like to have community: Chipmunk2D.

description: Chipmunk2D is a simple, lightweight, fast and portable 2D rigid body physics library written in C. It’s licensed under the unrestrictive, OSI approved MIT license. Hundreds of shipping games have chosen Chipmunk because of the high quality, speed, and accuracy of its 2D physics simulations.

Could we have a community on machineLearning ? It's quite programming related. If anybody knows another lemmy instance with a focus on this subject, I'm quite interested !

Display name: Machine Learning

URL: MachineLearning

edit : NVM, missed https://programming.dev/c/machine_learning

I would like to request a community for Nim and I volunteer to moderate it.

I'd love to have a PHP community! Cheers.

/c/php (PHP)
