Talk 2: Secrets to become a rockstar software developer

Being a “rockstar” or a “celebrity” developer is not about being popular or giving presentations at big events. What sets those developers apart is the work they do on innovative projects and initiatives. By working with other great developers, they create a positive feedback loop that lifts their career into the stratosphere.

The question is: which comes first? Do great developers work on great projects, or are they made great by the projects they work on?

To learn the secrets of rock star developers, we traveled the world and asked them directly. In this talk we show you what they did that made them rockstars. Because no matter what project you are working on right now, you can take the same path.
