Last 7 daysTips
DEV tips that make every scheduled post work harder.
Grow on DEV
Pick tags people follow
DEV readers follow tags like javascript, webdev or beginners. Choose the 4 that describe your article best, since tags shape who sees it in their feed.
Lead with the problem
Developers decide fast whether a post is for them. Say in the first paragraph what problem the article solves and what readers can do after reading it.
Format code properly
Use fenced code blocks with a language name, like ```js, so DEV highlights the syntax. Keep snippets short and runnable.
Your Brand

Write in series
Split a big topic into shorter parts and schedule them a week apart. Readers come back for the next part, and each article stays focused.
Stick around for comments
DEV is a conversational community. Answering questions on your article in the first days builds trust and brings readers back for your next post.

On DEV, open Settings → Extensions and generate an API key. Paste it into SolMarrow when you connect. You can revoke it on DEV whenever you like.
DEV's API doesn't accept image uploads, so images go into the article as Markdown image links. Link to images hosted online and DEV displays them in the article.
