         @chris_hayes @zachleat @dylanbeattie Yes, that would be a great option for certification as a Rockstar programmer.

            @mvdkroef @chris_hayes @zachleat This sounds delightful. What do I need to do to make it work?

               In basic just inform the Rockstar developers to follow the steps from the Linkedin documentation to add a certification to your Linkedin profile, with for example Certified Rockstar Developer.
               The only thing to get this active, you have to connect it to a "company"-page on Linkedin.

               For fun you can add form to the Rockstar website, where the developers can answer a "question" to get the certification. 😆 . Zach created suchs as well https://www.11ty.dev/blog/certification/

          @simoncox @zachleat I'm thinking that I'll forgo the “official" cert and just go about feeling cert’d.
