For a lot of our customers working with Made is their first exposure to Agile. As part of any project, we’ll ask them to nominate a Product Owner to work closely with us throughout. Picking the right person for the job can make or break the project – so how do you make sure you choose correctly?

There is no denying that Git is a power tool. Power tools command discipline and mastery to be used effectively.

At Made we are always on the lookout for technologies and practices that enable us to deliver better code. Practices that can speed up page loads, help us write better tests, or in this case, offer up SEO improvements.

During my transition from fledgling independent developer to fully functioning member of the team at Made a few years ago, it quickly became apparent that the code I was writing needed a lot of improvement in terms of how legible it was to others.
