What Affects Developer Experience in Software Ecosystems?

This study aims to investigate and characterize the factors that affect Developer Experience (DX) in Software Ecosystems (SECO). To do so, we reviewed the existing literature on scientific databases and digital libraries to map and analyze the state-of-the-art of DX in software development and SECO. As the main contribution, we provide a set of factors to help organizations, teams, individual software developers, and researchers to have a better understanding of the topic and create a better experience that allows them to promote engagement and other benefits when developing artifacts in SECO or elsewhere areas of Software Engineering.
