<div class="trix-content"> <div><strong>Episode Summary</strong></div><div><strong>Adam Leventhal is the CEO and cofounder of Transposit. Transposit was born from the desire to build a way for developers to work with lots of different APIs, take authentication and pagination off the table, and let developers focus on the problems they’re trying to solve. Transposit is a serverless platform that’s free and gives you a combination of SQL or JavaScript to start playing with your API.</strong></div><div><strong>Since interacting with API data securely can be difficult, the panel discusses how Transposit might replace the personally built tools and how does it compare to JAMstack. They talk about some common things that people do wrong with security. </strong></div><div><strong>Transposit is often used as the full backend, and Adam shares how that works. There is a list of APIs that Transposit can talk to, and you can build your own connector. You can also work with JavaScript and SQL simultaneously. </strong></div><div><strong>Chris Ferdinandi asks some more specific questions about how Transposit can work with email lists. Adam clarifies the difference between connectors and apps in Transposit. He delves into more detail on what makes it work under the hood. </strong></div><div><strong>There are some 450,000 Stack applications but the majority have one user because they built it to communicate specifically with their API. The panel discusses how Transposit can help with this. Since Transposit is still in startup mode, it is free for now, and can connect to any public facing API. Adam talks about their decision not to make it open source and gives more details on where the authentications occur. The show wraps up with the panel talking about the pros of going serverless</strong></div><div><strong>Panelists</strong></div><ul> <li><strong>Chris Ferdinandi</strong></li> <li><strong>Christopher Buecheler</strong></li> </ul><div><strong>With special guest: Adam Leventhal </strong></div><div><strong>Sponsors</strong></div><ul> <li><a href="https://devchat.tv/adventures-in-dotnet/"><strong>Adventures in .NET</strong></a></li> <li> <a href="http://sentry.io/"><strong>Sentry</strong></a><strong> use the code “devchat” for 2 months free on Sentry’s small plan</strong> </li> <li><a href="https://devchat.tv/elixir-mix/"><strong>Elixer Mix</strong></a></li> </ul><div><strong>Links</strong></div><ul> <li><a href="https://www.transposit.com/"><strong>Transposit</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://www.w3schools.com/sql/"><strong>SQL</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://jamstack.org/"><strong>JAMstack</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://www.openapis.org/"><strong>OpenAPI</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://swagger.io/"><strong>Swagger</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML"><strong>YAML</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://mailchimp.com/"><strong>MailChimp</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://react-redux.js.org/"><strong>React Redux</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://gomakethings.com/converting-a-string-into-markup-with-vanilla-js/"><strong>Converting a string into Markup with Vanilla JS</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://gomakethings.com/how-to-create-a-map-of-dom-nodes-with-vanilla-js/"><strong>How to create a map of DOM nodes with Vanilla JS</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://gomakethings.com/custom-events-in-internet-explorer-with-vanilla-js/"><strong>Custom events in Internet Explorer with Vanilla JS</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://gomakethings.com/dom-diffing-with-vanilla-js-part-1/"><strong>DOM diffing with Vanilla JS part 1</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https://gomakethings.com/dom-diffing-with-vanilla-js-part-2/"><strong>DOM diffing with Vanilla JS part 2</strong></a></li> </ul><div> <strong>Follow DevChat on </strong><a href="https://www.facebook.com/DevChattv/?__tn__=%2Cd%2CP-R&eid=ARDBDrBnK71PDmx_8gE_IeIEo5SnM7cyzylV...
