#128 From Designing Truck Wraps to Coding SDKs and APIs with Colby Fayock

On this week's episode of the podcast, freeCodeCamp founder Quincy Larson interviews Colby Fayock. He's a Software Engineer and prolific teacher who has created 68 tutorials for freeCodeCamp, and more than 100 videos on his YouTube – all freely available.

We talk about:
- Colby's early days doing design work for local bands
- How Colby went to art school, then pivoted that into a software development
- His early career at ThinkGeek where he not only did web dev but also worked as a male model for their products.
- Colby's day-to-day work as a developer experience engineer, building demo applications and SDKs
- How Colby uses AI tools in his day-to-day work, and what he thinks its current limits are.

Can you guess what song I'm playing on my bass during the intro? It's from a 1995 punk song.

Also, I want to thank the 9,771 kind people who support our charity each month, and who make this podcast possible. You can join them and support our mission at: https://www.freecodecamp.org/donate
