This is mostly it.

Before Stripe payment processing was abysmal. There was no thought at all given to the developer/implementer experience.

Stripe basically put a clean and straight forward API and product around the mess.

I know java is 'not cool' but it feels like javadocs in 2002 which are generally well organised by virtue of myriad of conventions, as opposed to docs in some other langs. which can be hit and miss, though getting better.

Stripe is a pretty good example of good product experience for those having to 'do the work', because they will likely have a lot of say in it, in the long run.
