I've been working on TinyDev for about...two months longer than I thought I would have, and I still have probably a month left to go before it's completely ready. Just the amount of ops work you need to do in order to lock down your stack is absolutely insane. That's assuming you invest in ops work in the first place, which many places don't, hence technical debt and war rooms and fires and the slowness of project management resulting in massive backlogs and the like.
I'm going to do a writeup hopefully up this weekend on backend level to VPC level work, just so that I can lock in my learnings. What I can say now is, the only easy day was yesterday.
