SHOW NOTES:
Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. Tell us about your background prior to Manifold, and what motivated you to focus on this new model of application development and integration.
Topic 2 - I know one truth about developers, that they prefer things to be simple or taken care of for them. Beyond that, I’m not sure of any absolute truths. It seems like Manifold is somewhere near the intersection of Low-Code and PaaS and Integration Services (API Gateways or Middleware) and CI/CD. Beyond simplicity, how do you describe what Manifold does?
Topic 2a - What is the interaction between the Manifold services and Prefab.cloud services?
Topic 3 - I really like the idea of shared projects and shared billing. How much do you find that overlapping or re-inventing slows down developers?
Topic 4 - Can you help us understand the business model or community model?
Topic 5 - Can you share any examples of how Manifold has helped companies and teams accelerate their application development models?
