Welcome Programmers!

programming.dev is a collection of programming communities and other topics relevant to software engineers, hackers, roboticists, hardware and software enthusiasts, and more.

The site is primarily english with some communities in other languages. We are connected to many other sites using the activitypub protocol that you can view posts from in the "all" tab while the "local" tab shows posts on our site.


๐Ÿ”— Site with links to all relevant programming.dev sites

๐ŸŸฉ Not a fan of the default UI? We have alternate frontends we host that you can view the same content from

โ„น๏ธ We have a wiki site that communities can host documents on


โš–๏ธ All users are expected to follow our Code of Conduct and the other various documents on our legal site

โค๏ธ The site is run by a team of volunteers. If youre interested in donating to help fund things such as server costs you can do so here

๐Ÿ’ฌ We have a microblog site aimed towards programmers available at https://bytes.programming.dev

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ We have a forgejo instance for hosting git repositories relating to our site and the fediverse. If you have a project that relates and follows our Code of Conduct feel free to host it there and if you have ideas for things to improve our sites feel free to create issues in the relevant repositories. To go along with the instance we also have a site for sharing small code snippets that might be too small for their own repository.

๐ŸŒฒ We have a discord server and a matrix space for chatting with other members of the community. These are bridged to each other (so you can interact with people using matrix from discord and vice versa.

A library for creating fully typed and declarative API clients, quickly and easily.

What would an API client with this library look like?

For a single API endpoint over HTTP GET, it could look something like this:

from dataclasses import dataclass
import quickapi


# An example type that will be part of the API response
@dataclass
class Fact:
    fact: str
    length: int


# What the API response should look like
@dataclass
class ResponseBody:
    current_page: int
    data: list[Fact]


# Now we can define our API
class MyApi(quickapi.BaseApi[ResponseBody]):
    url = "https://catfact.ninja/facts"
    response_body = ResponseBody

And you would use it like this:

response = MyApi().execute()

# That's it! Now `response` is fully typed (including IDE support) and conforms to our `ResponseBody` definition
assert isinstance(response.body, ResponseBody)
assert isinstance(response.body.data[0], Fact)

It also supports attrs or pydantic (or dataclasses as above) for your model/type definitions, including validation and types/data conversion.

I have a lot more examples (e.g. POST requests, query string params, authentication, error handling, model validation and conversion, multiple API endpoints) on the repo's README.

I've shared this one here before but it's been a while and I've added a lot of features since.
