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.


🔗 Site with links to all relevant programming.dev sites

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

ℹ️ We have a wiki site that communities can host documents on


⚖️ All users are expected to follow our Code of Conduct and the other various documents on our legal site

❤️ 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

💬 We have a microblog site aimed towards programmers available at https://bytes.programming.dev

🛠️ 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.

🌲 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.

second devlog of a neural network playing Touhou, though now playing the second stage of Imperishable Night with 8 players (lives). the NN can "see" the whole iwndow rather than just the neighbouring entities.

comment from video:

the main issue with inputting game data relatively was how tricky it was to get the NN to recognise the bounds of the window which lead to it regularly trying to move out of the bounds of the game. an absolute view of the game has mostly fixed this issue.

the NN does generally perform better now; it is able to move its way through bullet patterns (01:38) and at one point in testing was able to stream - moving slowly while many honing bullets move in your direction.
