Building Polyglot Developer Experiences in 2024
Talkat AppDeveloperCon Europe 2024 · on Tuesday, 2024-03-19· at 09:15· Pavilion 7 | Level 7.3 | Room S04·
summary
Counts across the Docker voting sample show YAML files change the most (2019–2023) and shell scripts rank second, highlighting config churn. The demo wires Dapr (sidecar) for state/events and uses Dagger modules to codify build/serve pipelines so the three-service app runs locally without Dockerfiles or Kubernetes manifests. Modules are reusable across languages, allow APIs-first abstractions, enable preview environments from a Git branch, and the live demo successfully boots the app and serves it on localhost.
