Productivity Engineering (medium.com)

I'm a big fan of productivity engineering, but I find this article is a bit light on actual suggestions for increasing the productivity of teams.

I find automating the simple tasks has huge pay-offs as your team grows. Specifically:

* Linting - set up a linter which enforces code quality across the board * Code formatting - similar to linting, but instead of just highlighting errors, automatically fixing them * git pre-commit hooks - Use hooks to run the linter and formatting on pre-commit and reject commits which break company standards * CI - Running test-cases and building on push is the single greatest time saver a company can invest in

I wonder what other things people do.
