The UI Monolith Making App | #116

PawCast with GeePaw Hill

The ultimate making app for a shipping multi-service system is actually a one-machine monolith with a UI. If your team is experiencing the most common pains from working in a large SOA environment, the productivity payback will be enormous. We've talked a lot about the idea of having a shipping app for our customers and a making app for us. We can use the same source base to make multiple binaries. We target customer needs with one of those, and we target developer needs with the rest. The economics of this approach are straightforward: As long as a making app's benefit — improved productivity on the shipping app — is less than its cost — the time spent working on something we don’t ship — we get a net gain in productivity.
