Next level – Twelve-Factor App principles

A great way to continue learning is to follow the Twelve-Factor App principles. This is a methodology to build modern, scalable, maintainable, and portable applications, and it is structured in 12 principles. The following are the 12 principles along with their definitions, taken from https://12factor.net:

  • Codebase: One codebase tracked in revision control, many deploys
  • Dependencies: Explicitly declare and isolate dependencies
  • Config: Store config in the environment
  • Backing services: Treat backing services as attached resources
  • Build, release, run: Strictly separate build and run stages
  • Processes: Execute the app as one or more stateless processes
  • Port binding: Export services via port binding
  • Concurrency: Scale out via the process model
  • Disposability: Maximize robustness with fast startup and graceful shutdown
  • Dev/prod parity: Keep development, staging, and production as similar as possible...
