In the past, many user interfaces (UI) have limited developer productivity by not offering the level of automation that developers need to be efficient. Users were often required to jump between pages in order to switch environments, move between code databases and files, and monitor website health. In order to keep up with the rapid of pace of development, users need a UI that is both fast and responsive. Join us for this webinar as Cory Hubbard discusses the importance of having a fast, responsive UI in order to optimize developer productivity. Attendees will gain an understanding of: -How to reduce the amount of page refreshes to provide more real-time, asynchronous updates -The benefit of utilizing a front-end framework of styles, components and patterns that are consistent and strategically designed -The importance and ease of minimizing the onboarding time for new developers
