devtools.fm: Developer Tools, Open Source, Software Development

This week we're joined by James Pearce, creator of TinyBase. James has a long history of working on developer tools and open source software. He was the engineering director at Meta (formerly Facebook) for over 10 years, where he worked on a variety of projects including React, React Native, and PyTorch. He also worked on Portal, Meta's smart speaker, for a couple of years. James is currently living on a boat and working on TinyBase full-time. Local first software is a big part of TinyBase, and James has been working with the Local First community to help build out the ecosystem.
