1. Building polyglot developer experiences in 2024 AppDeveloperCon EU, Paris
2. Building polyglot developer experiences in 2024 Building “Cloud Native” apps without dying in the process Disclaimer: Almost no YAML has been produced for this presentation.
6. K8s! K8s!
7. Why are we here? - Show a solutions-based way to code, build and ship applications - New tools are constantly introduced, it is hard to judge the impact on developers teams - Teams suffer from slow feedback loop cycles due fragmentation in tools ecosystem and complex environments - It is hard to create consistent experiences when glueing tools that were conceived with different use cases in mind
8. Core idea Remember how it felt when you were able to have a good understanding of the system mostly by mostly checking at the code
9. Marcos Lilljedahl (@marcosnils) Software engineer @Dagger Mauricio Salatino (@salaboy) Software engineer @Diagrid @Knative @Dapr @Keptn - Distributed systems - Developer tools - Platform engineering (before it was cool) - OSS maintainer & contributor
12. Let’s look at this “simple" system Forked from : https://github.com/dockersamples/example-voting-app 41 Yaml # File changes 2019 - 2024: 40 Yaml 30 CS 17 Dockerfile
13. - Containers, configurations and Environments - Services are tied to the provided infrastructure - Different delivery pipeline and practices with very little reuse, small difference can cause slowdowns and issues Challenges
14. Let’s zoom in a bit more
15. How could we improve this?
16. Databases KV Stores Message Brokers Secret Stores A unified programming model exposing application-level APIs for building distributed apps using best practice software patterns and practices with complete code portability across cloud and edge. Distributed Application Runtime
17. Dapr Building Blocks
18. Dapr version: https://github.com/salaboy/example-voting-app
24. Dagger is CI as code (and much more)! Transform your messy scripts into code pipelines that run the same way locally and in CI
25. Dagger • Your team's "designated devops person", hoping to replace a pile of artisanal scripts with something more powerful. • A platform engineer writing custom tooling, with the goal of unifying application delivery across organizational silos. • A cloud-native developer advocate or solutions engineer, looking to demonstrate a complex integration on short notice.
26. VOTE APP DEMO DAGGER
27. 27 Dagger API https://docs.dagger.io/api/reference/ • Container • Directory • File • Secret • Service • Socket

29. Dagger + Dapr
30. Dagger Module for Dapr (Ecosystem) - Anyone can now create consistent experiences to work across environments for teams to leverage tools like Dapr or any other - We can rely on an a vibrant ecosystem of integrations to build API based solutions independently of the underlying language
31. Bringing the experience closer to developers
32. Takeaways - Hide complexity behind APIs - Build beautiful experiences for your teams - Always aim to reduce your teams’ cognitive load
