Designing and Prototyping APIs
Interfake and prototyping APIs
It can help to get a working prototype fast in order to drive development and realise the best design by trying them out as you go.
I'm going to introduce you to API prototyping and show you how my home-grown tool, Interfake, can help with that process. It's cool.
Feel free to bring a laptop and try it out as we go, all you need is npm installed.
Daniel Hough
Daniel is a developer who believes strongly in learning by doing. He abhors 100-page design documents, he can't be bothered with meetings where 12 opinions are expressed and no decisions are made, and he's against the "throw it over the wall" approach to design & development.
API Design
A Unified API is a must for any business sourcing data from many places.
Using lessons learned, Simon will talk you through the issues many people encounter and demonstrate how there is another way. A better way, where you can reduce risk, speed up your apps and separate business data/product data from application implementation.All this and more comes from good API design!
