Culture Shock

I was surprised to hear these words said during the meeting to the effect: "We do not provide or recommend tools for our API." Third party app developers are on their own, what matters most the protocol is clearly documented.

That tells a lot about the culture of the company. Quite shocking for a guy who expect APIs to have a working sample code, though.

Rude awakening? Probably.

Anyway, this tells a lot about how apps will be coded in the future. I will not drop a name since this is a well known company.

So far, a lot of test programs have been coded to provide a working evidence before proceeding to the actual feature implementation.
