When the user wants to do developer advocacy activities including conference talks, live coding, podcasts, and building in public.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Developer Advocacy

This skill helps you with developer advocacy activities: conference talks, live coding demos, podcast appearances, and building in public. Covers talk proposals, demo prep, social presence, and measuring impact.

---

## Before You Start

**Load your audience context first.** Read `.agents/developer-audience-context.md` to understand:

- Who you're trying to reach (conferences they attend, podcasts they listen to)
- What topics resonate (pain points, interests)
- Your product's positioning (what story to tell)
- Voice & tone (how formal/technical to be)

If the context file doesn't exist, run the `developer-audience-context` skill first.

## Conference Talks

### Finding the Right Conferences

| Conference Type | Best For | Examples |
|-----------------|----------|----------|
| **Large industry** | Brand awareness, reach | KubeCon, AWS re:Invent, React Summit |
| **Regional** | Local community, accessible | Local meetups, city tech conferences |
| **Niche** | Targeted audience, expertise | GraphQL Conf, RustConf |
| **Company-hosted** | Ecosystem presence | Vercel Ship, GitHub Universe |
| **Unconferences** | Community connection | BarCamps, DevOpsDays |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jonathimer/devmarketing-skills/developer-advocacy@sha256:b7c07f7b26080bd5

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
