The Best Gift For A Programmer In 2023?
This year you may wonder what to buy as a gift for programmer, coder, or just a person who’s into tech, or is interesting in pursuing technology.
The usual gift of pixel-art socks is great for every IT Crowd enthusiast. But after tenth year in a row there might be a need to find something new.
One of the fantastic options you can consider is something most likely your gift taker didn’t see in his life.
Actually, yes, there are still gifts so extraordinary to make a great surprise.
And I’m the creator of such. Over the last three years I’ve developed fantasy decks for programmers.
What makes it a great gift:
- they are fantasy themed
- 2–4 people can play with them in a card game
- your gift taker can explore his programming interests with the deck
As you can see, it’s a win-win for everyone. You will be able to spent superb time together and relax, and your beloved geek or nerd will get the most unique gift he can have!
What Deck To Choose
There are almost 20 decks for various technologies you can choose from. You don’t have to take all. One is enought.
But what deck you should choose? It depends. If you don’t know what deck to choose I recommend GIT deck.
Every programmer nowadays uses GIT and every developer would like to learn it more. The Summon The JSON: GIT deck is a great way to learn it.
Each deck has a unique set of 65 high quality, UV protected cards with luxury linen texture, and are uniquely themed with a exquisite gate and diamond indicating a specific deck.
If you know a little bit about your gift taker you can choose a more specific deck.
Just ask in what programming language they work, or wish to learn.
There’s a deck for Kotlin, Python, Javascript, Typescript, Java, C#, C++, PHP, Rust, Ruby, Swift and Golang. It covers like 99% of developers.
You can also ask a followup question if you’ll learn they code in Javascript or Typescript.
You may ask what framework do they use.
If you’ll hear about Vue, Angular, React or Svelte, good news, there’s a deck for these frameworks too!
Every Javascript and Typescript programmer will also enjoy HTML deck and upcoming CSS deck.
As you can see it’s pretty simple. Just note down the language or framework, and use the guide above to choose any deck.
What Coders Think
Developers are obsessed with Summon The JSON. Marcus Michaels wrote:
“STJ is unique for me because it implements in a correct, intuitive, and fun way, the complex task of teaching you and reminding you of some programming concepts. People who know, call that mechanism “gamification”. So, STJ is just that, a great gamified programming deck of cards.”
Summon The JSON decks are great to connect with coders even of you don’t have a clue about coding, and don’t want to.
How Much Does It Cost
Since Christmas is coming, there’s a special proposal. Normally, decks are for $77. But currently you can get a deck from $28.
Check out the Christmas guide to see what are your order and delivery options.
There’s a fast manufacturing and fast delivery option to get it as soon as possible.
What To Do More
Of course, you should buy it right away.
But also, consider sharing the link in social media, and in your company chats and so on.
