If you want to onboard developers quickly, and retain them by providing a frustration-free environment, you need a great developer experience (DX). This goes beyond just providing CI/CD. It requires runtime libraries, build tooling, local environments, data collection, an internal developer portal (IDP), and migration automation. All of these work together to create a constant two-way stream of information between the platform engineers and their client development teams.

This talk does not dive deep into technical details, but is more of a conceptual overview of the various pieces of a platform DX solution. It does not propose a specific DX solution, but does suggest some tools that are useful to have in your toolbox. This talk is most relevant to developers in the platform engineering, developer experience, and developer productivity spaces, but developers of all stripes will be able to take away some ideas they can implement in their own teams.
I have not yet delivered this talk publicly.
