Oleksiy Galkovich, a IT-worker, who currently serves in the Defense Forces, developed the «Such a Schedule» app for iOS. This solution helps you conveniently advertise to clients on social media about «free windows» in your schedule based on ready-made templates.

OpenAI has unveiled three new models, including its flagship Sol, but they are currently in «limited preview» due to new requirements from the Trump administration.

This week, Stack Overflow's annual international survey began, asking questions about technology, experience, and salaries. If you're involved in IT — as a developer, tester, designer, manager, or even a beginner just starting out in this field — and want to see more orders coming to Ukraine from the UK, EU, and the US, I highly recommend taking this survey.

Hello! It’s #vsrativakansii again. A new selection of trashy job offers as usual on Friday’s broadcast. Today’s episode includes new offers that are impossible to accept.

After 2022, the IT market has significantly updated and opened up new opportunities for companies. Those who previously focused mainly on development are now expanding their focus on working with demand and growing their customers' businesses. Product quality remains important, but the ability to systematically shape and manage demand plays an increasingly important role. This is becoming the new market standard. When classic sales channels give less predictable results, there is room for new approaches, in particular, for the transition from a service model to more complex ecosystem solutions. Longer sales cycles, higher competition for each lead, and a reliance on paid marketing or outbound marketing are challenges that must be addressed immediately to avoid being left behind. But this is where a new window of opportunity opens—those who are the fastest to reshape their approach to customer acquisition will win.

I’m riding the subway. All around me are these leather bags wrapped in thin fabric.

Ukrainian miltech has already proven its strength in drones to the world. The next big technological breakthrough could be missiles. In a new series of publications, dev.ua asks seven important questions to the leaders of Ukrainian defense tech companies. Today’s speaker is BlueBird Tech co-founder Valeriy Zarubin, with whom we talk about dependence on Chinese components, the shortage of engineers, the opening of R&D centers in Europe, and why Ukrainian IT should move from outsourcing to creating its own products.

MilTech software developer and former military Yaroslav Sherstyuk decided to conduct an experiment with vibecoding and turn a long-standing idea into reality - to create a tool that helps keep life, work and goals in one place. So in 5 days the Kaizen life manager was born - a personal operating system for those who live at a frantic pace, manage teams, have many life roles and constantly switch between contexts. And in general, for people who want to have an answer to the question: "What am I spending my life on?".

Communication problems are no longer perceived as a minor inconvenience, as they affect work, study, and even safety. That is why more and more Ukrainians are interested in what PON is and why optics in the apartment is rapidly gaining popularity.

I was building my first commercial website in 2005. If someone had told me back then that I would still be doing web development twenty years later, I would have probably been surprised. At that time, the Internet looked completely different. Many companies were not yet sure whether they needed a website at all. Social networks were just gaining popularity, almost no one was talking about cloud services, and most tasks had to be solved manually.

Founded by PayPal and Stanford alumni, Palantir has become the leading provider of AI solutions for the Ukrainian army and government. Their platforms help plan routes to bypass enemy air defenses, analyze the results of air strikes, and optimize regional reconstruction. We tell you how Palantir's digital ecosystem works, what it is already being used for attacks on the Russian Federation and Iran, and what hidden threats cooperation with the developer poses.

Ukrainian IT professionals are increasingly thinking about changing their profession or finding alternative sources of income. «The IT market is bad right now, to put it mildly,» wrote Threads user kulykann. She asked IT professionals who had already changed careers or were considering it. The discussion quickly turned into a kind of survey about the backup plans of Ukrainian IT professionals. Among the answers were the defense industry, data analytics, farming, customs, and even repair work.

UI/UX designer Maksym Klodchyk has been passionate about fan fiction since his student days. The inconvenience of foreign platforms and the insufficient level of English made the IT professional think about creating a Ukrainian alternative. With the development of AI tools, Maksym realized that it was time to realize his long-standing idea.

Valve has officially announced the price of its new Steam Machine desktop system, sparking heated debate in the gaming community. Expectations of an affordable alternative to modern consoles were dashed by the harsh market reality — the device’s price turned out to be in the four figures. However, the company has presented an unexpected alternative: developers are giving the official «green light» to create home-made gaming systems.

A team of Ukrainian IT professionals led by CEO & Founder Dmytro Tkachuk launched Jobico.io — a platform for searching for candidates and vacancies in the IT sector.

Ukrainian defense tech has been one of the hottest areas for hiring engineers for several years. Companies are looking for developers, testers, embedded specialists, AI, computer vision, and other specialists. At the same time, not all IT professionals are ready to change outsourcing, a product company, or a startup to work on defense technologies. Some candidates fear security risks, mobilization, or industry instability. Others don’t see the job for them due to the technology stack or the requirement to work from an office. dev.ua asked representatives of miltech companies and analyzed the answers about the readiness for deftech of IT specialists themselves, and found out what exactly repels people from defense tech and whether these fears correspond to reality.

The cryptocurrency market in Ukraine is growing rapidly: according to international analysts, our country is consistently among the top 10 countries in terms of crypto activity among citizens. Along with the popularization of digital assets, the number of fraudulent schemes targeting ordinary Ukrainians is also growing. The Ukrainian cyber police records hundreds of calls related to the loss of funds in cryptocurrency every year, and the real number of victims may be much higher, because not all people contact law enforcement agencies with requests to investigate such thefts.

If you work in IT and live in Lviv, at some point, renting starts to annoy you more than another legacy project: the neighbors change, the landlord raises the rent, and the feeling of your own space never appears. At the same time, another question arises: where to put your savings so that they don’t burn out from inflation and devaluation, especially if you have already provided yourself with a basic level of comfort. The area around Stryi Park and UCU is Lviv’s analogue of «Silicon Valley» in miniature: campus, modern business schools, IT hangouts, and a serious demand for quality housing within walking distance of the university. It is here that the developer RIEL is building the Big Ben residential complex, a multifunctional quarter near UCU, with a focus on young professionals, students, and entrepreneurs.

Daniil Zhabrovets, a 17-year-old student of Lyceum No. 1 in Zhytomyr, as part of the RJ 45 team, recently became the winner of the CTF Junior League-2026. This is a large-scale all-Ukrainian team competition in cybersecurity for young people (schoolchildren, students of vocational schools and universities), where teams solve practical tasks related to web security, cryptography, reverse engineering, OSINT, artificial intelligence, etc.

Claude Guillemot, one of the five brothers who founded Ubisoft in 1986, died in France on June 19. According to the fire and rescue service of the Loire-Atlantique department, the 69-year-old co-founder died along with the owner-pilot of the plane — a twin-engine Cessna 421 crashed near the La Baule airfield in western France. In addition to Guillemot, a flight instructor from Rennes also died. Guillemot was supposed to be in La Baule for an air show with the participation of more than a hundred aircraft.

Threads users discuss how the reservation of military conscripts works in practice at large IT companies that are residents of «Diіa.City».

According to IDC, 38% of enterprise cloud migrations exceed the planned budget, and one in three projects misses deadlines. Companies migrate monolithic systems to cloud platforms in the hope of reducing infrastructure costs, but in a year they receive a bill that is higher than what they would have on their own servers.

Over the years of working with product teams, I’ve noticed a common misunderstanding. The request «build us a scalable platform» often means architecture only. But this includes the product that the customer uses and everything behind it: servers, analytics, payments, and partner relationships. The tech part is delegated to the development team, and the business part is left «for later.»

Senior UX/UI & Product Designer Andriy Kolodyazhensky created a platform for organizers of sports events. Currently, Startlek covers events in several EU countries. The idea for the project was born from Andriy's own experience, who has been running for many years. In 1.5 months of work with the involvement of Claude, the IT specialist created a full-fledged ecosystem for organizers and participants.

The first round of the World Cup has ended, where football passions and intrigues are not inferior to the matches in terms of emotionality. A prison cell for the Iranian national team, politicized Haitian shirts, and how to earn your retirement thanks to one successful match.

The Ukrainian IT market in 2026 found itself at a unique point: on the one hand, there was a huge shortage of hardware and a GPU boom, and on the other, there was an urgent need for digital sovereignty against the backdrop of war.

Today, Raiffeisen Bank’s cloud environment includes over 100 AWS accounts, over 40 teams, and over 370 engineers who work with the cloud infrastructure every day. On this scale, the main challenge is no longer creating infrastructure. The challenge is the organization’s ability to maintain speed, transparency, and manageability without turning every change into a bureaucratic process and creating dependence on a narrow circle of experts. This is precisely the problem that Raiffeisen Bank has been solving in recent years, gradually transforming Cloud Governance from a control system into an element of Developer Experience.

Ми, айтівці, схиблені на автоматизації. Чи не так? Якщо якусь дію треба повторити двічі — ми пишемо скрипт. Ми автоматизуємо деплої, тести, збір логів і навіть замовлення кави. То чому б не автоматизувати власні фінанси?

FUIB has made currency exchange flexible and profitable — personal rate, auto-repurchase and currency exchange without credit card fees

Ukrainian defense tech has long ceased to be a niche industry. Companies attract hundreds of millions of hryvnias in investments, launch new production facilities, compete for engineers, and create technologies that reach the front every day. But how do the people who run these companies actually see the market? In the new dev.ua column, we ask seven identical questions to the heads of Ukrainian defense tech companies. About the main problems of the industry, the shortage of personnel, overvalued technologies, the future of war, and the skills without which it is difficult to work in the defense industry today. The first guest of the column is Oleksiy Kolesnik, director of XTI Engineering. The company specializes in the development and production of equipment for humanitarian demining and operates in the Kharkiv region, one of the regions where the war has the greatest impact on the daily work of engineers.
