For the sake of maintaining an equal hiring playing-field (Which is by law in most countries in the western world), It also makes sense to put up pages about devs that are males and other minoritity only hiring pages. But that's if you decide to do such a thing. If it were up to me, I would list developers only by the competence of their technical knowledge and stack choice or whatever it is and nothing else. Which is already equal and fair enough.

So to answer your question:

> Is it good to make a special page for female developers?

If you support double-standards based on one's sex then yes.

If not, do not bother.

Thanks rvz!

The simple answer is that this matters to many people: e.g. a company wants to get closer to a gender balance in their workforce. Also, only 14% of engineering jobs in teh US are currently occupied by women: https://insights.dice.com/2018/01/12/relatively-few-women-en...
