What’s in your toolbox to develop products during the AI revolution
It has become clear that AI is now part of our workflows in building things, either as copilots or tools to develop everything from scratch. However, it’s still so new that we get AI-slop if we aren’t careful. During this talk, we’ll discuss where AI should be employed in its current state and what other tools you should have in your toolbox to get your products off the ground and ready for users.
You should build an SDK
We’ve all come across them, buried among all the third-party libraries we use to make modern applications in every framework and for every language. SDKs are part of the bread and butter that developers consume, but have you ever thought of making one for yourself?
This talk aims to make you say “YES”, we’ll cover what they are, why you should care, and most importantly why you should consider making one (with a few caveats of course). We’ll also go over the options for making them, and the best practices you should have in mind to maintain them and even open source them (if possible)!
The ABC of DX
Developer Experience is something you have been hearing about more and more recently. What exactly is it, though? We are so used to hearing and talking about bad UX, but what’s bad DevX? Let’s see what products, companies, and teams can do to improve Developer Experience where it exists; and where to start, if it hasn’t even been a consideration before. This is a practical guide, be it for developers, product managers, or anyone that cares about other developers consuming your products and tools.
