In this episode, I sit down with Fred Harper, Developer Relations Manager at TinyMCE, for a deep dive into what developer relations actually is -- and what it is not. Fred shares his 20+ year journey from software developer to DevRel, how his extroverted personality shaped his path, and why introverts can be just as successful in this role.
