In this podcast recorded at QCon New York, Shane Hastie, Lead Editor for Culture & Methods, spoke to Sangeeta Narayanan of Netflix about improving the developer experience, and why it matters.

Why listen to this podcast:

• Developer Experience is about making it easy and simple for software to be developed, released and operated

• It’s about identifying and removing whatever creates friction in the process of building software

• Modern approaches increase the cognitive load on engineers in every part of the process, DevEx tries to reduce that load

• The tools and infrastructure you use to build the system is as important as the production environment – treat your tooling in the same way you treat your production environment

• DevEx goes beyond the tools into anything which influences the ability to do effective work, the culture, motivation, team and individual health and productivity
