Developer experience (DevEx) is shaped by the tools, workflows and friction developers encounter while building software. SlashData’s developer experience research examines tool adoption and preferences, productivity signals, workflow challenges and the factors behind evaluating or switching development tools. Browse survey findings and benchmarks on coding environments, documentation, integration and everyday developer workflows. The research connects reported preferences with adoption patterns, helping separate a tool’s popularity from the experience developers have when using it.

In a tech landscape obsessed with speed and innovation, software development remains one of the most complex and failure-prone processes in business. Poorly structured codebases, outdated documentation and brittle architecture may sound like engineering issues, but the ripple effects of failures in these areas can deeply impact product leaders, marketers, operations teams, and even customer-facing departments!
We dive into technology leaders’ involvement in tool-buying decisions within their organisations, based on their role.
