The author of this text has a deep understanding of the challenges faced by developers in managing backend processes, deployment, orchestration, and infrastructure management. They advocate for tools that simplify workflow, automate mundane tasks, and eliminate the need for developers to micromanage project "plumbing." The goal is to abstract away computational work, allowing developers to focus on coding, innovating, and solving problems. The author believes that platforms like Bauplan are stepping in to build the necessary scaffolding to support developer workflows without becoming obstacles. They highlight the importance of serverless computing, automation, standardization, and ownership of development environments to reduce cognitive load, enhance efficiency, and prioritize developer experience. Ultimately, the future of development relies on creating a seamless bridge between local environments and cloud resources, ensuring tools are extensions of thought processes rather than hindrances.
