Bolhadev.chat
Brazil boasts a wealth of talented developers, yet the English language barrier often limits their global visibility and opportunities. Proficiency in English is a crucial skill that unlocks access to a vast amount of content and international career prospects, especially for developers.
Project Goal
The goal of Bolhadev.chat is to create a safe and supportive environment where members of "BolhaDev" can practice and improve their English communication skills. This project aims to bridge the language gap, allowing Brazilian developers to showcase their full potential on the global stage.
Technology
