It can be challenging to choose the right christmas gift for developers<\/strong>. What do you think is the best gift for programmers<\/strong> or someone with a passion for IT? We’ve got some tips for Christmas IT gifts to make your Christmas shopping easier. From a certain time – usually early October – it’s almost impossible to avoid the Christmas ads and offers for Christmas presents. Most of them are, of course, completely irrelevant. Luckily, we’ve got better recommendations for you. <\/p>\n

Get inspired by our list of Christmas IT gifts!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Give a voucher for your PC service<\/h2>\n

Get over it. If you work as a Java Programmer<\/a>, DevOps Engineer<\/a>, or simply a nitpicker, to most people in your family you’re a computer engineer. Someone who knows their way around computers can install operating systems and apps or flip contacts from one smartphone to another. Possibly erase registries, fix libraries, swap a ram here and there. <\/p>\n

Give a subscription to dTest magazine<\/h2>\n

The dTest<\/a> magazine is a valuable periodical that is particularly popular with older people. A wide range of tested products, debunking some myths based on advertisements, recommending more suitable products and services. In a time of hoaxes, half-truths and unethical advertising, which particularly affect the older generation, relying on a trustworthy consumer test is an option. <\/p>\n

Give IT courses<\/h2>\n

Many people are worried that AI will steal our jobs. But artificial intelligence and machine learning don’t come about on their own. They still need to be corrected, given inputs, boundaries, and sometimes simply shut down because they don’t work properly. However, this is not what the layman understands. If computer literacy grows, so will employment. And sentiment towards the technology that makes our lives (and testing) easier will change. That’s why investing in education is always a good idea. <\/p>\n

\"Happy
For IT enthusiasts, IT courses are good gifts.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

What gifts for Christmas<\/strong> for loved ones and friends with a passion for IT can be a great addition to pre-Christmas shopping? Motivational gifts<\/strong> are one option. For example, if you decide to buy something, an IT course chosen according to the interests of the recipient can be a great idea. Motivational courses can be like the best gifts<\/strong>, they can not only develop their skills but also provide inspiration and support for new challenges and goals. Among our Slovak courses, it is worth mentioning Skillmea<\/u> (former Learn2Code), where you can also find courses by the well-known programmer Yablek (Roman Hra\u0161ka) – from the basics like HTML, CSS or JavaScript through Python to SQL databases. In addition, Skillmea also includes creative courses focused on social networks, graphic programs or marketing basics. If a foreign language is not a barrier, you can also donate courses on Domestika. This Spanish platform mainly offers a portfolio of creative courses, but among them you will also find creative and visual programming, WordPress courses, or the interconnection between programming and marketing. Give the gift of an experience in virtual reality! <\/p>\n

Give a virtual reality experience<\/h2>\n

Whether you are an IT tester<\/a> or another IT enthusiast, you can also introduce your loved ones to your “IT world”. No, you don’t have to explain to them how to find bugs in code. Just spend an evening with them in virtual reality. We at msg life Slovakia<\/a> have tried it many times and it’s really fun. We believe that this is how you show your friends that IT can be interesting and that thanks to ordinary code, sci-fi ideas can turn into (virtual) reality. <\/p>\n

Give audiobooks<\/h2>\n

In the 5AM club (the crazies who get up at five in the morning and are jogging five minutes later), audiobooks are very popular. Even a die-hard advocate of paper books will find himself in a situation where an audiobook comes in handy. When cooking, for example, it’s a seriously invaluable format; there’s no danger of charred or tomato-sauce-splattered pages. <\/p>\n

\"IT
You can listen to audiobooks not only in your armchair, but also while playing sports, cooking or driving.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A big plus of the audiobooks is the performance of the actors who read them. The Witcher in the Czech version, either in the voice of Martin Finger or Ji\u0159\u00ed Dvo\u0159\u00e1k and Ji\u0159\u00ed Plach\u00fd, are gems that give the books a completely different dimension. You can search for audiobooks almost anywhere on the web, even Martinus offers them, but if you want to support specialist portals, we recommend Audiolibrix<\/a> or Audiotek<\/a>, for example. <\/p>\n

The best Christmas gifts that cost nothing<\/h2>\n

Have you noticed that you don’t have to leave the office for even one gift on the list? That’s called an effective solution to pre-Christmas consumerism! The last tip for a Christmas gift, however, costs nothing. It’s your time. We’ve written quite a bit about wellbeing, burnout and the phenomenon known as work-life balance, and the topic hasn’t stopped being relevant. Give the gift to your loved ones and to yourself. Spend quality time together without thoughts of work. We are surrounded by things we rarely need as much as an understanding person by our side. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
