   Episode 249 Sébastien Blanc, Developer Relation Engineer at Port IO

   Today, we’re speaking to someone who’s been doing DevRel since before DevRel was a term anyone knew. Sébastien Blanc is the Developer Relation Engineer at Port IO, an internal developer portal that gives developers the opportunity to do all their engineering in one place. Sébastien speaks to us about his beginnings in DevRel, and the privileges of being given the steering wheel of a budding industry. We chat about the effectiveness of bringing in Dev influencers into the DevRel space - it turns out that many factors can determine if this is the right decision for your company. We touch on the impact of co-pilot on developing, AI tooling, internal developer portals and documentation!

But IDP for portal, so internal developer portal really enters the whole new platform engineering, a move that we can see now for almost two years. And basically, what we try to do is make life of developers easier. By gathering all the information they need in one single place, a single glass pane.
