I found this to be an incredibly accessible and easy to read guide for software development. It’s a very short read - just a few minutes - but it’s full of practical examples and written in a way that speaks to non-engineers (like bureaucrats). If you are a non-technical person handling software stuff, this article should definitely be high on the reading list.

The author seems like an unknown in the software development world, but they’re one of the managers for Singapore’s fairly successful digital government initiative. So it does feel safe to say they have some experience.

Li Hongyi is the son of Singapore PM Lee Hsien Loong, as well as a deputy director in GovTech Singapore (the Government Technology Agency). (He's also an MIT CS grad, and a past Googler.)

I suppose he wrote this for other people in the Singapore civil service.
