Updated - Top 100 DevRel influencers

A few weeks ago we published our top 100 #DevRel influencers and got a lot of visits and engagement with people working in DevRel.

  • Some people suggested that we were missing some big influencers who we have now included in our calculation (we now monitor approximately 2500 DevRel influencers).

  • Many DevRel people told us they started to follow and engage with influencers in the list… which resulted in changes in the ranking (Keep in mind our ranking is based on the interactions between DevRel people).

To see the updated list in its entirety, you’ll have to stick until the end of the blog. For right now though, we’ll start by teasing the top 5 influencers that are based out of the USA.
