r/wgu_devs is a subreddit with 11k members. The most common kinds of discussions are advice requests and pain & anger, and the community frequently discusses software engineering, wgu, software, python, and engineering, and they frequently recommend/review computer.
This subreddit was started to support WGU students and alumni who have started or completed either the BS in Software Engineering or the BS in Software Development, but we'd like it to be a resource and community for anyone who is taking, has taken, or is planning on taking software courses at WGU.
