Kodsnack 445 - The momentum of developer love, with Guy Podjarny

<p>This episode is sponsored by <a href="https://snyk.io/">Snyk</a>. Fredrik talks to Snyk founder and president <a href="https://twitter.com/guypod">Guy Podjarny</a> about building security tools for developers, tools which you will actually use and enjoy.</p> <p>Guy talks about how Snyk was built to bring developer focus into security, building with a great focus on the user instead of on the person paying the bills for tools or looking at the reports. The world may not stop revolving around developers - meaning we need to cover wider and wider areas of knowledge - but we need to accept the responsibility of this, and use good tools to enable us to build better things more easily and take on all that responsibility in a good way.</p> <p>Guy describes Snyk&rsquo;s suite of tools and how they are built to be maximally useful and convenient to developers. Security problems and their fixes can be as easy as fixing a spelling mistake if built right! Snyk&rsquo;s tools can look at the whole application and understand the context. They can look at node_modules and filter out the problems which actually do not affect your app, and suggest appropriate fixes for the problems which do.</p> <p>Thank you <a href="http://www.cloudnet.se">Cloudnet</a> for sponsoring our <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_private_server">VPS</a>!</p> <p>Comments, questions or tips?
