Key learnings from the inaugural #PlatformCon

- Everyone is building a platform, whether they realize it or not
- Platform as product FTW 🚀
- Getting exec/C-level buy-in is challenging
- Platform Product Manager will be a hot role 📈
- Balance devex, CLI, UIs, & IaC ⚖️

1/ Everyone is building a platform, whether they realize it or not 🤔

There was a real mix of platform tech at the event:
- Kubernetes
- Serverless
- On-prem

One key theme: every "platform" helped devs to code, ship, and run, reducing toil and increasing speed and safety 🚀 ⛑️
A lot of (successful) platform builds and adoption appeared to be driven bottom-up by developers 🧰

And yes, even that janky "setup-local-dev. sh" script and clumsily assembled GitHub Actions building and deploying from your repo onto an EC2 instance count as a platform 😁
