Introducing The Gruntwork Way: A Framework for Building Developer Platforms | Josh Padnick posted on the topic | LinkedIn
Internal developer platform, Landing Zone, Developer self-service, GitOps. We kept hearing from customers that they understood these terms in isolation, but struggled to see how they all fit together. So we wrote a framework to help platform engineers build a holistic understanding of all these ideas, and I am delighted to announce that it is now live! We call it The Gruntwork Way. It is not a software framework, but a "mental model framework" that we hope will improve your clarity about building what we call your "developer platform." We talk about what problems you need to solve to build a successful developer platform, the principles for building an effective platform, and offer a bunch of opinionated, real-world guidance on how to build it. We considered publishing this as a book, but decided to make it freely available in our docs instead. So we hope you'll give us feedback so we can keep improving it.
