>Congratulations! You have scored 100 out of 100 in your math exam. Here take chocolate as your gift!

This kind of small presents really motivates people to keep the good work going. [Dev](dev.to) follows the same principle. Dev awards its members with badges to keep the members motivated. Which I really appreciate. Recently, I got 2 badges. The top 7 author badge and the Go lang badge.

Soon after that, I wondered exactly how many badges are there? So, I went out on an expedition. I searched through a ton of dev user accounts to make a list of all available badges. Down below is what I found. 

***
**Author note**: *I know there is a dedicated [web page](dev.to/badges) for listing all the badges. But the thing is, I found it out only after finishing my expedition. So, I am still gonna write this post. After all, this is my hard-earned bread(badges).*
