After its 2015 acquisition, fans worried about its future, and Microsoft confirmed their fears in. This acquisition is a bold move from the 800-pound gorilla to strengthen its mobile app ecosystem.

Decem5:25 pm CET Ten years after its founding, Wunderlist is saying goodbye. This was a wide array of topics, but Chad was equipped to discuss all of them–since he works at Microsoft, makes large investments in the future, and studied music when he was in school. Chad gives his perspective on Kubernetes, functions-as-a-service, and how developer tooling might evolve in the near future.Īfter talking about near-term developer tooling, we talked about the distant future: bug bounty marketplaces on the blockchain using Github repositories to train machine learning models about how to write code the comparison between music collaboration and software collaboration. We started off the conversation with the story of this rearchitecture, and how he sees the current opportunities in front of Microsoft. He then helped the company navigate to the successful Microsoft acquisition. When Chad joined Wunderlist, he helped start a large refactoring of the software architecture. And he has novel things to say about all of them! I’ve had a lot of fun talking to Chad, because he can move seamlessly between talking about disparate subjects like cloud computing, investing, cryptocurrencies, and music composition. He also works as a venture capitalist at BlueYard Capital, an early stage investment firm. Since the acquisition, Chad has become the general manager of developer advocacy at Microsoft. Chad Fowler was the CTO of Wunderlist prior to its acquisition by Microsoft.
