> *“Every company is a software company. You have to start thinking and operating like a digital company. It’s no longer just about procuring one solution and deploying one.

The heart of software companies is "developers" in the broadest sense: product managers, product designers, software engineers, software testers, security teams, operations teams and so on.

DX is a measure of how easy and enjoyable it is for developers to work in the enterprise. While "easy and enjoyable" may not seem important, given that awesome digital experiences come from the creativity of awesome developers, they are much more likely to be productive, engaged, and innovative in such an environment vs. a boring one. This will lead to better quality software, faster time to market, and happier customers.
