Fast, not Furious Developer Experience

Description

Developers like faster builds, performant IDEs, and modern tools. Achieving it at scale with thousands of developers working on a single codebase requires not just improving speed but also reducing developer pain points like migrations, refactoring, and new technology learning curves. This talk will cover ways to achieve a pleasant development experience despite the not-so-pleasant aspects of software development. It will also cover how Uber solves some of these problems at scale.
