That is why API teams build developer portals where the team can publish their API reference. This is where most teams fail. A great developer experience requires more than reference docs. In this talk Kristof Van Tomme will describe the upstream and downstream developer journey, and introduce the different documentation components you need to create a great DX.</p> <p>About Kristof</p> <p>Kristof is the CEO/co-founder of Pronovix, a consultancy specializing in developer portals, documentation systems, and API integrations - built in Drupal. He lives in Belgium, but runs a Write The Docs meetup and an API meetup in London. Last year his consultancy (Pronovix) customized 20+ developer portals, implementing design changes, access control, search, and other features that ambitious developer portals require. In this session he will share what he has learned.</p> <p>Many will head to the Lucky Lab at 1945 NW Quimby St. after the meeting.</p> <p>Rideshares to the Lucky Lab available</p> <p>PLUG is open to everyone and does not tolerate abusive behavior on its mailing lists or at its meetings.</p> </div> <h3>Links</h3> <ul> <li><a class="url u-url" href="http://pdxlinux.org">Website</a></li> </ul> </div>
