Episode 440: Making your own tools

Neil Johnson's been building some incredible tools for Mac Admins of late, and we wanted to sit down with him and talking through Apple Policy Explorer and some others. What's it like building tools these days, where do you start? Who is the right audience to design for? We'll dive deep on his process here this week, as well as talk about what's going on at Microsoft.
