10x Development Patterns

Patterns and practices that dramatically accelerate development velocity. Covers parallel execution, automation, feedback loops, workflow optimization, and anti-pattern avoidance.

What's Inside

• Core principles (parallel execution, early validation, reuse over rebuild, automation first)
• Development velocity patterns (hot reload, type-driven dev, feature flags, vertical slicing, and more)
• Leverage points — small investments with outsized returns
• Time sink detection and elimination
• Workflow optimization (daily templates, IDE shortcuts, CLI aliases)
• Anti-patterns that destroy velocity
• DORA metrics for measuring engineering performance

When to Use

• Starting a new project — set up the right foundations from day one
• Planning sprints — prioritize work that compounds
• Optimizing workflow — identify and remove bottlenecks
• Reviewing velocity — measure and improve throughput
• Onboarding developers — teach high-leverage habits
• Retrospectives — diagnose why things are slow
