  • What is it about?

    Jakub: About RESTful and web APIs. How to design them, how to maintain them, how to offer and support them. And how not to go crazy.

  • What will the visitors get from it?

    Jakub: Warm fuzzy tingling in their tummy.

  • For whom it is?

    Jakub: For everybody who understands they'll need an API soon.

  • What do I presently work at?

    Jakub: I direct and develop apiary.io. I help people create REST APIs quickly and easily.

  • Which of my existing achievements do I value the most?

    Jakub: I built a Prague JS team in GoodData from scratch. I founded my own company and I received an investment.

  • What would I like to achieve?

    Jakub: Build a large, successful international company that developers love. Apiary will be the Czech Github.

  • What do I look forward to at the WebExpo?

    Jakub: To a meeting with people.
