[ #85 ] Modern Software Development Permalink
Modern Software Development is an article I wrote with a concise list of technical points for a software house to implement. It has a basis in Agile methodologies but doesn't preach a certain one. It is aimed at the small software house or the beginner.
Modern is being proactive and efficient. It is being prepared, having backups, examining information, deploying with minimal mistakes and being able to recover and review when mistakes are made. Modern is being well-tested and writing maintainable code. Modern is being able to release regularly and easily.
