Today, we're excited to share that we've redesigned the beloved DEV Shop to be more representative of our community's structure and relationship with CodeNewbie Community and Forem.
Introducing... the Forem Shop
Now, you'll be able to find all the DEV merch you love alongside a brand new CodeNewbie collection — all underneath the umbrella Forem brand (and yes, there's new Forem merch, too!).
A peek at the biggest changes to our shop...
Restructured Logic
As you'll see when you head over to shop.forem.com, DEV merch is now a collection underneath Forem — as is CodeNewbie merch. The reason for this change is that our ecosystem has changed dramatically since we launched the DEV Shop a few years back. Now, DEV is just one community underneath the Forem umbrella of open-source communities and we wanted the structure of our shop to reflect that.
Inclusive Sizing and Fit Language
One of the most important changes we've made to the shop is the removal of gendered language from our sizing and fit terminology. We think our new language better reflects our values at DEV of inclusivity across the gender spectrum (and many other human spectrums, too).
Forem Collection
You can now buy sleek Forem-themed merch to show the world that you believe in a more transparent and accessible internet with a greater emphasis on healthy communities. We hope you love it as much as we do!
CodeNewbie Collection
It was high time we released a dedicated collection of CodeNewbie products that represents the friendliest community of early-career software developers, coders, and mentors! We look forward to adding to the CodeNewbie Collection over time.
"Computers, Amirite?" Merch
Just for fun, we've released a small sub-collection of "Computers, amirite?" merch under our DEV Collection. Because really... what more is there to say?
SheCoded Collection
Today, we also released the 2022 #SheCoded Collection. If you publish a valid #SheCoded, #TheyCoded, or #SheCodedAlly post on DEV by March 9th, you will not only create a $20 DEV + GitHub donation to Girls Who Code but you'll also receive a credit to purchase swag from this collection. More info on #SheCoded (DEV's International Women's Day Celebration) here.
