#080 - Documentation-driven development with Sebastián Ramirez
About this episode
This week Bob and Pybites Coach, Robin Beer, interview Sebastián Ramirez, the creator of FastAPI, Typer and SQLModel.
We talk about:
- What he is currently working on.
- How to balance the large amount of opportunities in his space (open source developer productivity tips).
- The process of designing new libraries that are the glue between other ones.
- The feeling of never being enough as a developer (the more you know the more you don't know).
- His perfect developer setup.
- How to work back from the "best developer experience" / working on documentation in tandem with the code (we came to call "documentation driven development").
- Future vision (work and Python).
- And more ...
