As maintainers of the open source framework Electron , we try to be diligent about the work we take on. Apps like Visual Studio Code, Slack, Notion, or 1Password are built on top of Electron and make use of our unique mix of native code and web technologies to make their users happy. That requires focus: There’s always more work to be done than we have time and resources for. In practice, that means that we don’t want to spend time thinking about the server infrastructure for the project — and we’re grateful for the support we receive from…

When building web applications, unit testing your individual components is certainly important. However, end-to-end testing provides assurance that the final user experience of your components chained together matches the expected behavior.

Over a decade ago, Heroku co-founder Adam Wiggins published the Twelve-Factor App methodology as a way to codify the best practices for writing SaaS applications . In that time, cloud-native has become the default for all new applications, and technologies like Kubernetes are widespread. Best-practices for software have evolved, and we believe that Twelve-Factor also needs to evolve — this time with you, the community.
Originally, the Twelve-Factor manifesto focused on building deployable applications without thinking about deployment, and while its core concepts are still remarkably relevant , the examples are another story. Industry practices have evolved considerably…

Compliance Is Possible with the Right Provider
Because today’s companies operate in the cloud, they can reach a global audience with ease. At any given moment, you could have customers from Indiana, Indonesia, and Ireland using your services or purchasing your products. With such a widespread customer base, your business data will inevitably cross borders. What does this mean for data privacy, protection, and compliance?
