Developer Joy – How great teams get s%*t done
summary
Argues that developer joy comes from measurable improvements in quality, flow, and customer value, with concrete examples: 42% of developer time spent fighting technical debt, a flaky test detector that auto-re-runs and flags tests, and a bot that cuts PR review time from three days to 1.2 days. Recommends DORA metrics plus non‑negotiable baselines, weekly checkops rituals, a developer platform (paved road/golden path), and a SPACE-style survey to surface priorities and delegate fixes to autonomous teams.
