Fabien Deshayes shared Monzo's DevEx recipe at #QConLondon 2025:
- Assemble effective teams
- Build impactful products ("Monzo Magic")
- Communicate value.

"The dopamine hit of instant answers has replaced the satisfaction of genuine understanding."
Agile Bible, Verse 5:
“Build projects around motivated individuals. Give them the environment and support they need, and trust them to get the job done.”
Now tell me, when every process, idea, stakeholder, task, OKR, strategy, tool, framework, micromanagement, team structure, and team requirement comes top-down…
What exactly are you doing to ensure every individual has the environment and support to deliver their unique value and impact?
(Spoiler: The value and impact is not equal to your role. Shocking, I know.)
"Would you happily go on-call for a system of fully AI-generated services?"

How AI Agents Are Quietly Transforming Frontend Development, by @TheNewStack:
https://thenewstack.io/how-ai-agents-are-quietly-transforming-frontend-development/
Platform.sh and Upsun docs just got smarter. 
Both are now llms.txt compatible—giving AI models structured, respectful access while keeping control in human hands.
This is about future-friendly documentation, better indexing, and transparency by design.

"Is your team too slow and unpredictable even though you are doing the maximum amount of work in parallel, or because you are doing the work asynchronously with extra overhead?"
#softwareengineering #developerexperience #faster #productivity
I’m still wary that many people in #DeveloperExperience confuse feeling fast with actually being fast https://jchyip.medium.com/what-does-speed-mean-in-software-product-delivery-9bc95c1c36c3
Stuck in a big ball of mud codebase? 
Modularity & cohesion to the rescue!
Faster dev & maintenance
Less risk
Scalable teams
Smooth onboarding
More flexibility
Engineer growth
A must-have for modern, robust #software.

This website https://viewdns.info/, just like https://expeditedsecurity.com/aws-in-plain-english/ is a good example of nice #devex.
Yes, being technical I should know what "Reverse MX Lookup" means. But it also takes 30 characters and little effort for you to make it so much clearer to me.

Last week was my first time doing a Keynote, and also my first time speaking in almost two years! And it was a special day, since I brought one of my daughters for the first time 
. What a cool day. We talked about #developerexperience, obviously!
"Pull Requests create blocking problems as people wait for approvals or merges. This has yielded many new experiments and practices—async pull requests, ephemeral PR environments, and byzantine branching strategies.
I can't help but wonder if we're spiraling toward complexity here for no good reason."

Just wrote about API versioning strategies for your developer platform! From Semantic Versioning to different implementation approaches (URI, header-based, and query parameters), I break down the pros and cons of each method based on real-world experience.

"The research makes clear that cognitive load management isn't a luxury—it's a fundamental requirement for building high-performing, sustainable technical organizations in an increasingly complex world."
"Just because it's called a 'platform' doesn't automatically mean it reduces the cost of effort. It's relatively easy to (unintentionally) design a platform that makes productivity worse"
