HTML5Rocks, a beloved resource for web developers, is shutting down. This post reflects on the site's history, its impact, and the reasons behind its decline. Key factors include the shift away from "HTML5" as a buzzword, changing team priorities, lack of a focused content plan, and challenges with community management. Despite the shutdown, the author expresses gratitude for the experience and the connections made, highlighting the lessons learned about content creation, developer engagement, and the open-source community.

The Chrome and Web Developer Relations team is significantly expanding in 2022. Open roles span program management, Chrome extensions, CSS, rendering, DevTools, web performance, the Privacy Sandbox, and web ecosystem. The team is seeking program managers, developer relations engineers, technical writers, and infrastructure specialists to contribute to various initiatives, including Chrome Dev Summit, Google I/O, web.dev, and improving the overall web platform.

Celebrating my 10th anniversary at Google working on Chrome and leading a Developer Relations team. As we plan for the next few years, I'm reflecting on how we can improve Developer Satisfaction. Inspired by recent feedback on Apple's developer relations, I'm curious to hear your thoughts on what a web browser developer relations team should prioritize. What can we do more of? Less of? How can we best support you and your team? Share your opinions, especially broad strategic ideas.

I'm looking for a Developer Advocate to join the Chrome team and help us improve web privacy. We have many ongoing and upcoming projects within the Privacy Sandbox initiative. This role will focus on advocating for cross-browser privacy solutions, working with external developers, and ensuring our internal teams prioritize user and developer needs. This will involve explaining potentially disruptive changes (like the SameSite cookie attribute update) and helping developers adapt.

How should Web and Chrome Developer Relations work?

Thoughts on the year on the web for our team

TL;DR It's a long story; I learnt a lot.

It might be surprising. But it's all possible on the web.

I've run hackathons and learned they're not for winning customers. They're not about startups or brand awareness. They're about learning and improving your product. Treat them like beta tests where developers help find bugs and make your platform better. Focus on making your platform valuable and easy to integrate with. Reward developers for providing feedback, not just cool demos.
