Why WhatsApp?

WhatsApp has long been the go-to community platform for individuals across the world, from rural to urban neighborhoods, with varying levels of connectivity.

Its community function allows for different groups or topics, as well as create events or make general announcements.

WhatsApp logo and text
A woman with long black braided hair sits on a tiled bench outdoors, smiling at her open laptop. She has a white handbag on her left side and is dressed in a patterned jacket and black pants. In the background, there are parked motorcycles, people walking, and trees.

Global Dev Chat is a WhatsApp community, a place to share ideas, brainstorm, be supported, be mentored, ask questions, get answers, or even just chat when you are feeling stuck, bored or need inspiration.

It’s a community of individuals who like you (and me), want to do good work to make the world better, but also want their community around them as they grow.
