Does your developer platform spark joy? Should it?

What does developer joy mean to you? And can (or should) a developer platform impact this? People are at the heart of teams and developer joy is a key indicator of successful teams and organizations. Come learn how your platform can spark developer joy by removing toil around “routine” but important work.‍
Talk abstract

Developer joy is a key pillar of organizational well-being. The biggest driver of joy comes from spending time solving “interesting” problems. It is equally important to reduce toil around “routine” but very important work.

In this talk, Preeti Kota, Head of Engineering for Compass (Atlassian’s brand new developer experience platform) introduces you to a weekly ritual stemming from years of Atlassian’s own learning. This ritual is powered by the developer experience platform and goes a long way in streamlining operational health. The outcome is that teams have confidence in mastering routine responsibilities and can stay focused on solving problems for our customers.

 Key takeaways:

  • What’s the secret sauce in the ritual?
  • Why does it work?
  • Success stories from Atlassian
