Fastly, Inc
Introduction
Fastly’s Developer Hub is a central place for developers to easily access all the tools they need to build fast, scalable and secure modern applications on the Fastly edge cloud platform. Housed within the Developer Hub is a testing sandbox, ready-to-deploy code snippets, and a growing repository of structured tutorials, reference materials, and documentation.
Why nominated?
Fastly’s Developer Hub is designed with usability and innovation at the forefront, and serves as a central place for developers to easily access all the tools they need. For example, Fastly's Developer Hub helps developers push application logic to the edge with ready-to-deploy code examples, such as this one: https://developer.fastly.com/solutions/examples/add-a-new-field-to-a-js…
Two key features of the Developer Hub are the highly-searchable documentation and sandboxed testing. Robust, easy-to-navigate changelogs and references help continuously educate developers on the extensive capabilities of Varnish Configuration Language and Fastly’s API. Fastly Fiddle – a powerful and flexible testing sandbox – allows developers to test configurations without putting their production environments at risk.
The portal also features improved navigation allowing edge developers to discover and implement self-service solutions much faster so teams can spend time on more important tasks from optimizing sites, streamlining processes, or executing on great ideas. With this in mind, the developer-friendly search indexes content based on several different categorizations, such as command type or use case, allowing developers to discover additional related content.
The hub features a growing repository of structured tutorials and reference materials, providing developers all the tools they need to drive digital transformation and leverage the promise of edge computing easier and more efficiently than ever.
