State of Developer Experience Report 2024

Summary


Software development teams are dealing with growing complexity and productivity expectations. These pressures can affect developer experience, which is increasingly important to retaining talent and creating more efficient teams—or at least, that’s what we were willing to bet.

In February 2024, Atlassian worked with Wakefield Research and the founders and researchers of DX, an engineering intelligence platform, to learn more about the state and effect of developer experience at global organizations. We surveyed 2,100+ developers and managers across a range of industries to get a fresh look at the points of friction getting in the way of their satisfaction and productivity—and what they're planning to do about it. While the results showed that developer experience is important to both developers and leaders, there isn’t always alignment on what needs to be improved.
