Oliver Thamm wants to give this talkAPI Accessibility - Key Concepts driving Developer Adoption
How do API access methods influence developer adoption? Provide a SDK, design a REST (Hypermedia) API, integrate with adapter frameworks?

As well, learn about the influence of: authentication methods, output formats, OSS standards, design, documentation, etc.
Lowering entrance barriers to API data is key to drive internal and external innovation. An easily understandable API a.k.a. Developer Experience (DX) drives usage, reduces support costs for providers and developer costs for consumers.
