2025 WeCoded Challenge
A Celebration of Gender Equity in Software Development
Submissions Due: April 06, 2025 23:59 PT
We're excited to announce the launch of our first-ever WeCoded Challenge—a new way to celebrate diversity, inclusion, and empowerment in the tech industry!
The Evolution from SheCoded to WeCoded
Since 2018, DEV has celebrated International Women's Day with SheCoded, a call to action for the community to share powerful stories from women in tech about their journeys, challenges, and triumphs. What began as a platform for women's voices naturally evolved into WeCoded in 2023—an inclusive space that amplifies all underrepresented and marginalized voices in our industry.
This evolution reflects our commitment to creating a community where everyone can see themselves represented, share their experiences, and find inspiration. WeCoded builds on the foundation of SheCoded while expanding our celebration to embrace the rich diversity of perspectives that make our community stronger.
Echoes of Experience
Share your personal journey or the stories you've witnessed in the tech industry—highlighting challenges, triumphs, and insights.
