• A role in Developer Relations is very sought after especially for generalists.
• With a lot of tools focusing on developers as the users, more and more companies have started feeling the need for a developer relations team

This would be awesome!

It's such an underlooked aspect of the industry a roadmap would make a lot of sense for people who've heard about it but have no clue where to start

Hey @kuberaspeaking, do you mind if I help you with this Dev Rel roadmap?

[kuberaspeaking]

if the author @kamranahmedse is okay with it, i'd be happy to work with @shrirajpawar4 on this issue.

[kuberaspeaking]

@kamranahmedse can you assign this issue to me for hacktoberfest ?

[kamranahmedse]

@kuberaspeaking @shrirajpawar4 go ahead please. Feel free to extend the textual roadmap with how you envision it to be and share it here; we will then review it and get it converted to the visual format.

Hello, @kuberaspeaking; I would love to work on this roadmap. Let's do it if you allow me to help and contribute to this fantastic roadmap for devrel, will help a lot of people who are currently looking for a switch or want to get started in this new field 🤟✌

[kuberaspeaking]

@akshat5302 would love some help. Maybe you can start with expanding the existing list and then we can divide up the sections. If you have any questions, feel free to ask, we can work together to complete this.

[akshat5302]

Everything looks great on the list for a beginner to kick start. One thing to add from my side as of now is that we can add social presence and community building also in the skills section(that is too, optional)

[akshat5302]

Hey @kuberaspeaking what's next

[akshat5302]

Do assign me one of the topics to prepare for that

[kuberaspeaking]

Hey @akshat5302 sorry for the delays. You can start with adding resources for the skills under - creating demos and working with APIs, It could be tools or frameworks, YT videos or articles that teach you to make basic demos using something like bootstrap, netlify, heroku or anything else that you might be used to. I will be working on introduction

[akshat5302]

@kuberaspeaking, can we have a group regarding our conversation cause every time I have to ask my questions here? It would be easy if we have a group on any social media such as Twitter or any other platform

[akshat5302]

My question is should I have to make a blog or video regarding APIs, or can I share resources. I'm comfortable with both

[kamranahmedse]

We are now closing any issues requesting new roadmap requests to clean up the issues.

However, this doesn't mean that the requested roadmap won't be added to the website. We are putting it in the backlog and will add it to the website depending on how it ranks in the backlog or sooner if we find someone interested in adding that roadmap. Thank you for the request though! 🙏
