Staying up-to-date is one of the most critical challenges that developers constantly face. In today’s fast-paced and ever-changing digital world, technology is advancing at an unprecedented rate. The tech industry has never been more dynamic, and developers must continuously learn and stay up-to-date with the latest trends to remain relevant to stay in their A-game.  

Continuous learning is essential for developers to stay relevant and competitive in their field. New programming languages, frameworks, and tools are being developed and updated daily, and learning these changes in real time is critical for developers. However, the avalanche of information emerging left and right makes it challenging for every developer to keep up.  

To fill this void, daily.dev, a community-driven professional network for developers, has raised $11 million in seed round funding led by Aleph to build the world’s biggest professional network for the global developer community. The round was led by Aleph with participation from Jibe Ventures and Secret Chord Ventures alongside notable angel investors, including Ariel Maislos, Amir Shevat, and several other tech industry leaders.   

Aleph’s General Partner Michael Eisenberg has also revealed that he will be a part of daily.dev’s Board of Directors. “daily.dev’s founders have built an extraordinary experience for experienced developers,” said Eisenberg. “It is not easy to crack the code for some of the world’s best coders, keep them engaged and active in their own development and now in the professional development of other like-minded developers.”  

The Inception of daily.dev

In the current technological landscape, developers have a multitude of responsibilities they need to juggle. With a plethora of technological updates and various resources to learn from, the pressure that developers face is insurmountable. Co-Founders Nimrod Kramer (CEO), Ido Shamun (CTO), and Tsahi Matsliah (CDO) envision this platform as a place that connects developers to accelerate their professional growth through a wide breadth of opportunities for learning, community, and collaboration.   

“Everything daily.dev has created has been done hand-in-hand with our incredible developer community,” says Nimrod Kramer, CEO and co-founder of daily.dev. “Today, developers are center stage. Times are changing, and a new generation of developers is now born into a well-established ecosystem that has more content, more tools, and more opportunities than they can deal with,” Kramer explains.

“This is where daily.dev comes into play, we made it to let devs easily navigate the abundance of knowledge and discover the content that they need with zero effort. Given the change in what it takes to succeed as a developer, we are convinced that this is the right time to build a professional network that will redefine the impact developers have on the global economy.”  

Kramer also notes that their focus is on empowering developers to develop a sense of community among fellow developers to unlock their own potential. “Through our community, we’re learning how challenging and complex the developer journey is, and together with them, we’re building the ultimate platform to empower learning, collaboration, and community,” he adds. “Right now, we’re focused on shipping new product experiences that can only be unlocked together with friends and colleagues. That means letting developers create micro-communities inside daily.dev, where they can share and curate content for the benefit of others both as individuals and as a group.”
