DOP 247: Navigating the Nuances of Developer Relations

Episode 247

Show Notes

#247: What do you think of when I say ā€œDeveloper Relationsā€? Is it a person that flys from conference to conference giving talks? Is it someone that is chasing you down to scan your badge in a booth? What if the answer to both of those questions is both yes and no?

In this episode, we speak with Lian Li about the realities of developer relations and how developer relations isn’t just something you buy off the shelf.
