DX Core 4 unifies developer productivity frameworks
My latest article on LeadDev explores how DX Core 4 combines elements from DORA, SPACE, and DevEx.
Today, DX debuted a new developer productivity framework, DX Core 4. I'm excited to break the news with LeadDev, interviewing one of the designers of the framework, Abi Noda. The framework encapsulates the best of predecessors like DORA, SPACE, and DevEx.
What's interesting is the focus on self-reported metrics as well as financial outcomes, as well as unique metrics like 'time to 10th PR' in addition to the typical agility measurements. Unifying things like this could get multiple stakeholders involved.
The release follows increasing interest in developer productivity engineering. I'll be interested to see how folks respond to this, given some push back leaving some executives uncertain whether measuring productivity is worth it.
Of course, productivity measurement shouldn't be done at the individual level for many reasons. Check out the full story for a closer look into the new framework and how to get productivity measurement right in general.
