Developer productivity isn't just about faster builds or better tooling—it's about creating an environment where developers can do their best work. As AI transforms how we code, the fundamentals of developer experience become even more critical.

This talk will guide you through a proven blueprint for identifying and eliminating the friction that's killing your team's productivity. You'll learn to recognize hidden obstacles, build stakeholder buy-in, and scale improvements for your own team or entire organizations.

We'll explore why DevEx matters more than ever in an AI world, where context switching and cognitive overhead can either amplify or undermine AI's benefits. You'll walk away with practical templates and strategies you can immediately apply to make development more enjoyable and effective.
