All about the talk
Building Developer Experience: the Hyvä Toolbox
One of the aspects of my job I enjoy the most is building tools for developers. Done right, a tool can reduce the time to launch substantially. The same is true for the ongoing costs after launch. The current renaissance of Magento is bringing an approach with a focus on simplicity into the limelight. In this presentation I want to show how the things built into Hyvä are focused on developer experience and how developers can get their job done more quickly while enjoying their work. Aside from showing concrete examples and a bit of code, I want to share the underlying ideas that make all the difference. These ideas will help attendees to build software that makes other developers happy.
