In this episode, I speak with Amelia Winger-Bearskin, Contentful's Developer Evangelist, all about what developers and creators need to know to create web experiences and apps with Contentful. We touch upon many topics including the Contentful's API, how to create Content Models, what resources are available online to help you along your journey and much more.
