Calling all DEVs, please join us for #SheCoded 2019.

#wecoded #theycoded

International Women's Day is THIS FRIDAY!!

Each year, "Nevertheless, She Coded" amplifies the journeys of women and non-binary people who code. We started this celebration two years ago and I'm excited to share that #SheCoded has developed into a truly impressive collection of voices, with each voice full of insight and excellent advice. We hope you'll participate and celebrate this important day with us again.

Since 'Balance For Better' is the official 2019 theme for IWD, we're adding the opportunity for allies to participate as well. As they say, everyone has a part to play, and we want to hear from allies on how they'll support women and non-binary devs.

For those of you who participated last year, we encourage you to submit another post. We have an updated prompt! And if you're new to the celebration, we welcome you to contribute to the collective.

We'll be featuring your stories all over dev.to and social on Friday, March 8th but you can get started TODAY:

Note: "Nevertheless, She Coded" was inspired by International Women's Day. We include and elevate non-binary people who are interested in participating and sharing their story. However, we understand that some members who identify as non-binary appreciate the inclusion while others may want to celebrate women only. Please know we will also be celebrating International Non-Binary People's Day on July 14.
