Why Developers Hate Your API
John Musser
APIs are everywhere now and can be a great building block of modern applications. But all too often APIs are not great. Rather than love your API, developers curse it. How can you avoid that fate? In this session we’ll look at the most common mistakes API providers make and how you can avoid making them too.
Designing your RESTful API with RAML
Mike Stowe
Imagine being able to visually design your API and prototype it before you writing a single line of code! Imagine being able to use that same design to document and share your API with others! MuleSoft’s Mike Stowe shares how RAML is changing the way we design and document RESTful APIs.
Scaling API Design
Jason Harmon
Jason Harmon, the head of API Design at PayPal shares the key elements of API design that works long-term, even in extremely large distributed environments.
