For non-programmers, a programming interface often evokes fear — lines of code, command prompts, and parameter fields seem to whisper: this world is not for you.
Programmers, on the other hand, feel the opposite. To them, such an interface feels like home — it speaks their native language, gives them control, and invites them to explore.
Ironically, when those same programmers face a sleek but closed web interface, they often hesitate: What’s hidden behind this surface? What can I change? Am I still in control?
Thus, the same interface can be a barrier to one person, and a home to another.
