The field of software engineering is shifting towards a more human-centered approach, with a growing focus on the experiences and well-being of developers, users, and other stakeholders. Recent research has highlighted the importance of accessibility, inclusivity, and social learning in software development, as well as the need for more effective support systems for developers and users. Notable papers in this area include: The paper 'Towards a Science of Developer eXperience (DevX)' which advocates for the formal recognition of Developer eXperience (DevX) as a distinct research field. The paper 'Is It Safe To Learn And Share? On Psychological Safety and Social Learning in (Agile) Communities of Practice' which investigates psychological safety within Agile Communities of Practice and provides practical guidance for organizers seeking to cultivate inclusive, high-impact communities.
