Dev workflow at Die Socialisten

Interesting insights on a dev workflow at a company that went from agency-like to SAAS over at the blossom blog.

How the process changed

We do not make any projects any more, we do products. So every code we write should have a half-life of many years now. Code Quality, Coding Guidelines, Code Reviews, Pair Programming. This is all happening now on a daily basis.

Cool tools in use

• github.com centered workflow
• waffle.io for visual tracking of github issues
• intercom.io for external bug tracking / issue management tool
• codeship.com for CI
