Transcript

1. The Future of Developer Tools for IoT Tracy Miranda Kichwa Coders @tracymiranda
2. Developer Tools Build software stuff Quickly, Scale well Troubleshoot
3. What Language for IoT ?
4. What Language for IoT ? https://www.slideshare.net/IanSkerrett/iot-developer-survey-2017
5. C Assembler Verilog C#
6. Eclipse IDE @eclipsejavaide
9. To IDE or not to IDE?
10. VS Code
11. The IDE Spectrum Smart Editors IDE
12. VISUAL (HIGHER LEVEL) ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE CLOUD
13. VISUAL (HIGHER LEVEL)
14. We need a higher level of abstraction for digital twin.
15. All IoT tools need more visuals and less text
16. Node-Red?
17. Visual Tools Should Be: • Able to support hierarchy of abstraction layers • Allow users to work at optimal layer (e.g. drill down) • Transition to text layer • Scriptable • Debuggable
18. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
20. Intelligent Completions: Code Recommenders
21. AI-Powered Bug Detection
22. Software Mining Open source code mining Configuration mining Natural language sources
23. Who wants AI powered tools?
24. We have the technology We have the data We need the integration & design
25. “Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works” –Steve Jobs
26. CLOUD
27. DevOps In The Cloud Source Control github, bitbucket, etc Builds & CI jenkins, hudson, travis, circleci etc Other jira, bugzilla, gerrit etc
28. Cloud Workspaces
29. Cloud Workspaces
30. Language Server Protocol LSP https://github.com/Microsoft/language-server-protocol/wiki/Protocol-Implementations
31. Language Server Protocol LSP https://github.com/Microsoft/language-server-protocol/wiki/Protocol-Implementations Code Completion Hovers Jump to definition Find References Diagnostics
32. Language Server Protocol: Developer communities and tools are restructuring to work together and be more effective.
33. Language Server Protocol: Desktop editors will keep up better with changes in languages.
34. Language Server Protocol: Cloud editors are set to significantly improve their functionality.
35. Github?
36. Github http://blog.atom.io/2017/09/12/announcing-atom-ide.html
37. Language Server Protocol: Let the fragmentation continue…
38. Every developer deserves their very own domain specific language… www.eclipse.org/xtext
39. Debug Protocol gdb GDB mi Protocol
40. The future is distributed: Monoliths to microservices. IDEs to micro-ides
41. Lots of new possibilities… https://www.producthunt.com/posts/interviews-on-skype
42. VISUAL (HIGHER LEVEL) ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE CLOUD
43. Gen Z Codes in the Cloud by Default
44. Shape The Future Design, design, design Integrate all the things Think extensible Default to open source
