Why
Being a developer today often feels boxed in. Most platforms treat software engineering like a job title — a 9-to-5 routine — instead of what it truly is for many of us: a craft, a passion, a creative way of thinking. At UGIST, we believe that coding isn't just a career path — it's an identity, a language, and an art form. And that art deserves its own space.
We built UGIST for the makers, tinkerers, indie hackers, and dreamers who want to share what they're building without feeling like they have to pitch it, package it, or promote it through corporate lenses. There are no artificial restrictions on what topics "perform" best or what fits a professional algorithm. If it's part of your dev world — your tool, your code, your thought, your vibe — it belongs here.
UGIST also exists to elevate voices that usually go unheard — small developers with big ideas. Whether you're just starting out, quietly building your first library, or launching something wild with a few friends, UGIST gives you the space to show it, get noticed, and maybe even connect with collaborators to bring something greater to life. It's not about climbing a corporate ladder — it's about growing with others who just love to build.
This is your playground. Your lab. Your digital garage. Welcome to UGIST — where devs can just be devs again.

Meet Ubi
Ubi is more than just a mascot — he’s the spirit of UGIST. Born in Algeria, in the heart of North Africa, Ubi grew up with a natural curiosity for all things tech. As a child, he wasn’t obsessed with grades or achievements — he was simply the quiet, intelligent kid who fell in love with computers. For Ubi, coding wasn’t a career goal. It was a playground, a place where logic danced with imagination.
A Smart Kid With a Passion
From a young age, Ubi was known as the “computer guy.” He taught himself how to code not because someone told him to, but because he wanted to understand how things worked. He’d spend hours making weird little tools, playing with pixels, and crafting mini digital worlds — just for the joy of it. For him, programming was an artistic outlet, not a means to an end.
The Burnout Hit Hard
When Ubi turned 19, he entered the job market. Talented and eager, he quickly landed work as a developer. At first, it felt like success — money, structure, purpose. But as time went on, the reality of corporate development began to weigh him down. The joy he once felt began to fade under the pressure of tech culture. He was constantly told which stack to use, which framework was superior, which language was worth his time. The work became mechanical. The community, judgmental. The magic was gone.
A Decision to Start Over
One evening, after another long day of mindless tickets and tech debates that led nowhere, Ubi had a quiet realization. He asked himself, “Why did I stop having fun?” Coding used to feel like self-expression. Now it felt like survival. That’s when he made a choice — to stop chasing trends and start creating from the heart again. He didn’t want to win debates. He wanted to build something meaningful. Something real.
Welcome to UGIST
UGIST was born from that moment of clarity. It’s a digital space where developers can breathe again. A place to share code, ideas, and thoughts without judgment. Not everything needs to be perfect. Not every post needs to be optimized. UGIST is for coders who want to connect, experiment, and be themselves — no posturing, no pressure. Just real people writing real code and having real conversations.
Ubi Today
Today, Ubi is still that curious coder — but now he represents more than just a love for programming. He stands for freedom of speech, for doing things your own way, and for bringing playfulness back into the developer world. He wears glasses now, floats through cyberspace like a philosopher-hacker, and reminds every coder that it’s okay to stop being perfect and start being human again.
