What did developers do during Covid 19 outbreak? An infographic
Ever since the Covid-19 outbreak took on global pandemic proportions, a lot has changed about how developers work, communicate, and above all, stay sane. Did they feel the impact of lockdowns and social distancing as sharply as other people? Developer Economics ran a small poll in May 2020 asking their community members to describe their day-to-day during the quarantine. The results are summed up in this Covid-19 infographic.

Understand developer ecosystems
This is the starting point: understanding your developer audience, their needs and preferences and segmenting them, using data to make decisions and boost your marketing activities' performance. Also, it's among the most common questions vendors and developer program leaders ask Christina Voskoglou, SlashData’s Senior Director of Research and this episode's guest.
In this episode we discuss:
  • Developer ecosystems and who is included in them (spoiler alert: may include people who do minimal coding)
  • The evolution of developer ecosystems these past 10 years
  • The biggest changes seen, what drove those and how different technologies drive the future
  • Hyped technologies: do they fade away or evolve to solve other problems?
  • The most common questions asked by developer program leaders.
This episode wraps up an amazing Season 2. We can't thank you all for being with us, in this journey. 
Season 3 will be back this fall.
