Good UX, bad one even more, impacts not only the design of your APIs, but influences and drives your database layout, query optimizations and performance requirements.
Have you ever worked in a team that did not have a (competent) designer? Where your API is designed by a technical person with a lack of UX knowledge and experience?
Good UX (bad one even more!) has an impact not only on the design of your APIs, but influences and drives your database layout, queries, code and application performance you will have to explain to your customers and employer.
In this brief talk we will explain the importance of collaboration between designer and developer. And not just any developer. The BACKEND developer.

I am Python software developer since 2010. Mostly web applications. I have made right choices, wrong choices and had to maintain someone else’s choices. I have built simple and complex web applications from scratch, took over complex systems, endured countless upgrades and dependency changes. I started as a fullstack developer and system administrator. I have been a team lead, a mentor and a software architect. However, I was always, first and foremost, a developer.
