MD10 Thinking
summary
Defines the MD10 rule: critical operations should have fewer than 10 dependencies, fewer than 10 interactions, and finish in under 10 minutes. Describes a concrete monorepo setup (five projects, ~200k LOC, 90 people) that deploys every two days with production deploys via a single command (~3 minutes), hotfixes (~4 minutes), automated pull‑request merges using a GitHub label, Datadog for logs, and dedicates 20% of engineering time to tooling.
