Drew and James open the show with an excellent lesson on how to say Drews last name. They then discuss some of the tools around server provisioning and a new web server called Caddy. The guest this week is Bryan Clark, the Product Manager for the Firefox DevTools! The interview starts at 0:36:44.
Bryan has never worked for a company that didn't have an open source product. Before joining Mozilla on the Thunderbird team, he worked at Red Hat as a designer. But, he grew tired of the commercial product life and wanted to work on something else. Enter Mozilla. Bryan is now the Product Manager of the Firefox DevTools and has a lot to share about the upcoming features. We also chat about some of the other trends in web development, like mobile and responsive design, as well as developing for low-bandwidth.
If you are a Firefox fan or just someone who likes to keep up-to-date with browser trends, be sure to check this one out!
