3 Ways to Create a More Inclusive API Program feat. Shanae Chapman, Founder of Nerdy Diva

This week on the API Intersection podcast, we spoke with Shanae Chapman, senior UX researcher at HashiCorp and founder of Nerdy Diva, which focuses on inclusive design and empowering the next generation of designers and developers with knowledge and resources to succeed in a technology career and make for a long-lasting, community impact. 


When it comes to creating a more inclusive API program, Shanae stresses that you should "start with the highest impact, high-priority, high-traffic systems and tools first and then work your way down. It takes time, so have grace with yourself and your teams. As long as you are making progress towards a goal, it matters in the end."
