Observing the power of APIs (Interview)
About this episode
Jean Yang's research on programming languages at Carnegie Mellon led her to realize that APIs are *the* layer that makes or breaks quality software systems. Unfortunately, developers are underserved by tools for dealing with, securing & understanding APIs.
That realization led her to found Akita Software, which led her to join Postman by way of acquisition. That move, at least in part, also led her to join us on this very podcast. We think you're going to enjoy this interview, we sure did.
