FAUN.dev() is a developer-first platform built with a simple goal: help engineers stay sharp without wasting their time. It curates practical newsletters, thoughtful technical blogs, and useful developer tools that focus on signal over noise.

Created by engineers, for engineers, FAUN.dev() is where experienced developers turn to keep up with the fast-moving world of DevOps, Kubernetes, Cloud Native, AI, and modern programming. We handpick what matters and skip the fluff.

If it’s on FAUN.dev(), it’s worth your attention.

Beyond curation, we run a course marketplace (WIP) designed to keep developers current. These courses go deep into the subjects that shape real-world work—things like Kubernetes internals, modern DevOps workflows, cloud-native architecture, and using AI tools to build faster and smarter. It’s practical learning, taught by people who’ve done the work. Developers from companies like GitHub, Netflix, and Shopify already rely on FAUN.dev() to stay on top of their game. They trust us because we keep it real: no hype, no filler, just what you need to grow and do your best work. For sponsors and partners, FAUN.dev() offers access to a focused, engaged audience of technical professionals. This isn’t just another broad developer community—it’s a place where smart engineers go to get smarter. If you have something meaningful to offer them, you’ll be in good company. In short, FAUN.dev() is more than a content hub. It’s a place to grow, to learn, and to connect with what really matters in software today.
