Digest of news for April⚡️

🎉April 19th marked our Dev Center’s 19th birthday - a huge milestone for all of us. We want to thank everyone who has been with us on this journey.

💻1-hour coding challenge. We held a fast‑and‑fun coding contest with one simple rule: be the first to solve the task. Participants could use ChatGPT, Google, their favorite tools, or even ask a friend. The result? Excitement, zero stress, and a format we all loved. More challenges are coming soon.

🧑‍💻In Serbia we participated in a Job fair and presented our company to potential candidates.

Events of the month:
🇷🇸In Serbia we explored the stunning Kalemegdan Park and Belgrade Fortress on a walking tour! We enjoyed wandering through the Great and Little Parks, rich with history and beauty. Moreover, our colleagues participated in the Belgrade Marathon.

🇵🇱Our colleagues from Poland visited a karting arena and had a fun day with an exciting combination of speed and skill.🏎

🇭🇷Our Croatian team’s event of the month was a visit to a small, animal‑friendly zoo with naturalistic enclosures. After exploring the grounds, everyone enjoyed a picnic followed by board games and badminton.

🇦🇲In Armenia, we attended a TV‑show–style Game Show complete with live hosts, buzzers, timed rounds, and studio‑style sets. Teams faced off in trivia quizzes and creative contests - it was an unforgettable team‑building experience full of joy, laughter, and friendly competition!

Also, our Armenian colleagues have decided to add some color to our workdays!🎨
They have launched a challenge called "Colorful Week", where they come to the office each day dressed in a different color.

🧠 Build Your Second Brain: Organize Your Thoughts, Unlock Your Potential

In today’s fast-paced world, we’re constantly collecting information—articles we want to read, ideas that pop into our heads, meeting notes, to-dos, insights from books or podcasts. But without a system to manage all of it, we risk losing valuable knowledge or simply feeling overwhelmed.

That’s where the Second Brain method comes in. Developed by productivity expert Tiago Forte, this approach is about creating an external, trusted system that stores your ideas, thoughts, and knowledge—so your mind can focus on creativity, decision-making, and problem-solving, rather than memory management.
