daily.dev

Developer news aggregator and community feed for articles, releases, and tech discussions.

Overview

daily.dev is a professional network and personalized news aggregator built specifically for software developers. It aggregates content from over 2,000 trusted sources and presents only the most relevant articles, tutorials, and discussions based on your tech stack and interests. The platform combines a curated feed with community features including Squads (developer communities around specific tools), discussions, job listings, and reading streaks to help developers stay current without the noise of traditional social media.

The product started as a Chrome extension and has grown into a multi-platform service with native apps for iOS and Android. It emphasizes developer trust, quality over speed, and community as a core product feature rather than a marketing surface. The team operates remotely across eight countries with no mandatory offices.
