It's probably not entirely too presumptuous to say that we all want happy, productive developers. But how do we move beyond good intentions and actually create a stellar Developer Experience (DevEx)? Jeremy will talk about ways to transform your DevEx from a well-meaning goal to an achievable result. He'll start with some foundational strategies for improving workflows and automating away developer toil, and then address how to foster a collaborative environment. Along the way, he'll likely include some relatable anecdotes and a healthy dose of self-deprecating humor.

I want to get past the buzzwords and the hype, and instead bring some signal to all of the noise surrounding developer experience and productivity. I'll look at what actually helps developers do their best work and helps companies achieve their goals.
