Writing Good APIs

Writing APIs is fairly easy but writing an API that is usable and lives longer than a few days is hard. This talk discusses methodologies, tips and tricks for writing good APIs.

During the course of this talk we'll cover many of the common forms of APIs including base types, domains, services and toolkits and how to approach writing each type. We'll also cover the different between internal and external APIs and how to protect your code from your clients.

Attendees should take away a base set of tactics that assist in writing solid APIs.
