Unleashing Developer Productivity: Supercharging Zero Day Cloud-Native Developer...
summary
Adobe builds custom IDE plugins for VS Code and IntelliJ that wrap “golden paths” so code, test, deploy, monitor and debug run from the IDE; back end uses GitHub, Backstage, Argo for deployments and an in‑IDE chatbot for failure guidance. Onboard surveys (~3,000 devs) and monthly NPS probes drive prioritization and show a measurable drop in meantime‑to‑hello‑world, lower cognitive load, fewer hops, and higher confidence when developers follow the default flow.
