> A boring codebase doesn't make a bored developer, on the contrary, it frees developers up to think about important stuff and deliver value to the business. Just as I want my language to be boring so I can focus on interesting stuff, I also want my tech stack to be boring - the interesting bits should be in the value added, not the stuff under that.

### Development process/workflow
- There is a weekly call with every member of the team to set the most important goals of the week, as well as a daily call to focus on the problems of the daily tasks.

#### Daily standups (15' max)

A call that's done at the same time every workday to go through general updates, personal yesterday's work, personal tasks of today, and blockers/possible risks. The reason it's called a "stand-up" is because if attendees participate while standing, the ensuing discomfort will keep the meeting short.

#### Weekly (30' max)

A weekly call with every member of the team to set the most important goals of the week.

#### Sprint Planning (30' max)

- When working on projects, the specific tasks to tackle are written in tickets on Github Projects. Some actual Lambda's projects are working on other project management software, but these are legacy.
- [The Manager's Path](https://www.amazon.com/Managers-Path-Leaders-Navigating-Growth/dp/1491973897/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=the+managers+path&qid=1625162711&s=books&sr=1-1)
- Every week or every two weeks there's a call named Sprint Planning to create a new sprint on the Github Project and select the issues that will be worked on. The Tech Lead and the Project Manager (where applicable) will lead these meetings.

#### Retrospective (10' max)

- Before or after every sprint planning there will be a space for the team to reflect on what has been done right or wrong during the sprint and to propose practices to maintain or avoid. We don't always do these meetings, but having the praxis to reflect and balance is a useful tool.

#### All hands (or Federico's updates) (varies)

- These are sporadic meetings where upper management tells updates about the company.

#### One-on-ones (30' max)

- These are meetings between the individual contributor and one of the people he reports to (Tech Lead or PM).
- The idea of these meetings is explained in chapter 1 of this book: [The Manager's Path](https://www.amazon.com/Managers-Path-Leaders-Navigating-Growth/dp/1491973897/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=the+managers+path&qid=1625162711&s=books&sr=1-1)
