Transforming Dev Practices with Kiro’s Spec-Driven Tools | Nikhil and Richard
Season 1 Episode 67
Rapid prototyping is fun, but maintaining it? Not so much.
In this episode, Simon Maple is joined by Nikhil Swaminathan, Head of Product and Richard Threlkeld, Principal Engineer at Kiro IDE (AWS), to discuss how spec-driven development moves the focus from writing code to understanding and communicating system behavior, building software that is easy to understand so that developers can maintain code without losing clarity.
They also explore:
• Kiro’s philosophy on spec-driven development
• why specs must be composable documents
• how specs enable better review and reasoning around refactors
