As part of the follow-up, I’m looking into the APIs offered by ASX100 companies and, for no scientific reason, chose to start with an analysis of NAB’s developer portal. This post isn’t a strict analysis, rather it’s a sharing of thoughts as I step through NAB’s API with a longer view of gaining a better understanding of API best practices in the wild.

Good teamwork is a mix of effective leadership, open collaboration, and helpful tools to make it all easier.
