Ask HN: Who has best DevRel these days?

Hi HN! I am trying to get a sense of how SOTA in DevRel looks like to start building our own developer community for my startup.

Any thoughts, links, suggestions, opinions on best practices are highly appreciated.

I personally think tailwindcss and n8n do a great job.

I watched a couple of classic things like John Sheehan's talk https://www.heavybit.com/library/video/runscope-ceo-and-twilio-dev-evangelist-on-hero-making/ or Danielle Morrill https://www.heavybit.com/library/video/lessons-from-twilio-content-marketing-to-developers/, but probably it's a bit outdated already.

Looks like that now great DevRel uses Twitch streams, regular community zoom meetups, using Twitter heavily.

Thoughts?

I personally love the vibes around Replit. Check out their Twitter as an example: https://twitter.com/replit

They've been around for years but it seems they've only recently started getting more focused attention. I wonder if they can point to a deliberate strategy as the cause of that, or if it's mostly just good timing and getting hyped by the right people (e.g. PG on Twitter).
