Microservices Are Easy…

In theory, microservices are easy. The promise of loosely coupled, scalable services that can each be independently built, tested and deployed sounds amazing, doesn’t it?

The Trials And Tribulations of Creating An SDK - Part 1

I’d like to tell you a story. It’s an inspiring tale. One of mistakes and perseverance, but full of learning and growth. It’s the epic about my adventures in creating an SDK. I’m a software developer - full stack, thank you very much. I’ve been getting paid to write code for about 15 years now, but in reality I’ve been a developer since I was born. Some of us are like that - we’re problem solvers, tinkerers who can’t sit still and crave the next adrenaline rush that comes with fixing a bug or implementing a shiny new feature. We live for that high. You may know someone like me. Hell, you may be one of us. If so, join me in the spinning of this yarn. You’ll laugh at my mistakes, you’ll cringe at some of the things I did, but in the end I hope you’ll learn something. I know I did, and I’d like to share those learnings with you in hopes that you’ll be inspired to try something new. Because that’s how we grow as developers - even as people. By moving out of our comfort zone and taking a “leap of faith” into the unknown. Let’s get into it, shall we?
