How do people qualitatively measure their developer experience?
Is anyone taking surveys specifically designed for developer teams to help organizations understand and improve their developer experience? What tools do that?

- funny_dude 3y agoThat's more around application performance. How do people actually get the perspective of their developers at scale in large engineering organizations
- factorialboy 3y agoNo. DORA metrics are not related to application performance.

It is more of a survey than measurable objective metrics, and the problem is with the implementation, like any other survey- build good questions, operating the survey analysis and results etc. There some comercial tools available, for example getdx [2] [1] https://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=3454124 https://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=3454124 [2] https://getdx.com/ https://getdx.com/

Maybe a high score correlates with a good developer experience? Otherwise it’s just asking a bunch of survey questions about developers feeling of job quality?
