Our core software principles:
Distributed Development & Microservices - As a core team enabling solutions to be developed across the business, we must provide clear development and orchestration boundaries and relieve the burden of dependency resolution on specific app teams.
Test Driven Development - We believe that architecting a solution through the lens of a robust test suite creates focus and purpose in the code we create. It is the primary enabler of continuous delivery.
Strict Typing - Simple: types enable you to catch bugs faster, greatly improves IDE assistance and enables predictable outcomes when using code produced by others.
Continuous integration - Code that sits on a developer’s machine goes stale fast. Short PRs and software switches enable the team to stay current with one “interesting” version of the code.
