Machine-readable Developer Experience by Adam DuVander, API The Docs Virtual 2020

Talk Description:
"Technical writing is a time-intensive art form. We bring the nuance and use cases into API documentation. Yet, machine–readable API descriptions have become more common, and with them automation. Tech writers should embrace these technologies as a way to expand the impact of our field. This session will take a technical look at developer experience and how machine–readable API descriptions can be used to improve DX. In addition to generating docs and SDKs, you'll see how these descriptions have the seeds of developer use cases, which is a huge opportunity for any API to inspire real usage."
