In this talk, Sarah will guide us as we explore the transformative power of Empathy Driven Development and its impact on creating a rich developer experience. By stepping into the shoes of the developers using our products, we can transform how they interact with our products, schemas, and documentation. Sarah will also touch on the importance of future-oriented thinking in this approach, discussing how rapidly evolving technology is reshaping developer workflows. By anticipating these changes, we can adapt our developer experience strategies to remain relevant and effective. This talk promises to offer valuable insights into fostering a more empathetic, forward-thinking approach to development that improves our current practices and prepares us for the evolution of technology.
