A software (libraries as well as apps) design tip: validate configuration as early as you can. Validation (and failing) at build time > validation at start-up > validation at runtime. The earlier any invalid config is flagged, the faster the feedback cycle for your users.

It’s The Missing README’s one year pre-release anniversary! 🎉 Over the past year, we’ve sold 1000s of copies and gotten 41 Amazon reviews with a 4.8 ⭐️ average. But the best part has been hearing how the book has helped engineers grow. Thanks! amazon.com/dp/1718501838/…

If I may tweet my own horn a bit, we mostly wrote @missingreadme for beginners, but it's lowkey good for mid-career, too (most will find at least 50% of it useful, different 50 for each person).

There are many chapter 9 (going on-call) learnings in this post. The post is also a good example of the "follow-up" section. It's worth a read. blog.roblox.com/2022/01/roblox…
