My friends and I who are building websites — we’re kids! We’re kids playing around with tools given to us by adults.

DX

Since the early stages of the web, the developer world has considerably evolved. From raw languages to tools and frameworks, a lot of the technical code is getting abstracted to ease the work of developers. It’s like a game where you have a set of blocs from which you can choose from to mix & plug according to your needs. In order to make it attractive, a whole Developer Experience (DX) is emerging. From code to production, less and less repetitive configurations are being necessary and actors on the market are collaborating to make their tools and frameworks work smoothly together. There is a new kind of developer whose role is to provide their pairs the best guidance during their journey: Developer Relations (DevRel). A position midway between content, community and code. As a recreative developer myself, it’s pleasant to see how the tech industry is building trust on top of solid foundations with a focus on community. What a great time to be a developer!
