Developer eXperience (DX) is crucial for the success of an API. 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.
