Internal DX is Critical
Internal Developer Experience (DX) is the experience that your software developers have when working, including their time efficiency. Good DX makes good software, but most of the work involved in good DX is generic and not unique to your business. Bad DX is this, this, and this and causes unhappy developers and slow progress. Worse, the most senior developers and tech leaders are often responsible for DX, making the time spent even more impactful. Good DX is…
Allow your team to focus on the product, not generic work, and let them do so more efficiently through streamlined activities.
Automation, good test strategy, and self-healing infrastructure eliminate human errors and reduce manual testing.
We all want to spend our time being impactful, and waiting and doing repetitive tasks is not that.
DevOps, architects, and platform developers all have a role in good DX. With good DX you can do more with less.
When the product is reliable and your features are delivered with speed and predictability your customers will love it.

Level-Up your team
What is your DX Level?
- 1
Tests and Linting
Most teams have something in this area. Specifically, unit tests should be easy to run and write, and tests and linting should pass before merging. This establishes a code-quality baseline.
- 2
Automated Good Deployments
Automated deployment to development and production with self-healing infrastructure mean your product is as reliable as your product code, and not dependent on human deployments.
- 3
Fast Dev Cycle Time
All common tasks should be fast. For example as soon as code is saved it should be running in your local environment. The same goes for tests suites - fast and reliable.
- 4
UI Test Coverage and Feature Flags
End-to-end test coverage enables low stress and frequent deployments. In addition, feature flags allow rapid change without slowing down. As a result, the business gets a faster product feature cycle time.
- 5
Modern Frameworks and up to Date Dependencies
Continuously upgrade dependencies for happy developers and better security. Upgrade your frameworks without slowing down your team.
