Social Media for Developers

Many developers hate social media, viewing it as a vanity metric. But in 2025, your personal brand is your resume. Open source contributions and a strong Twitter/LinkedIn presence can open doors that a cover letter never will.

What to Post?

• Build in Public: Share screenshots of what you are working on, even the bugs.

• Tips and Snippets: Share one thing you learned today.

• Curate: Share useful tools you found.

Visuals Matter

Images stop the scroll. Ensure your screenshots are optimized. Use an Image Compressor to make sure they upload quickly even on mobile data.

Conclusion

You don't need to be an influencer. You just need to be present and helpful.
