Comprehensive guide to Development, Security, and Operations practices at Burdenoff.

Technology Stack

Development

  • Version Control: Git + GitHub
  • Languages: TypeScript, Python
  • Package Managers: npm, Poetry
  • Code Quality: ESLint, Prettier, Black, Ruff

Security

  • Secrets Management: GitHub Secrets, Azure Key Vault
  • Scanning: bandit, safety, pip-audit
  • Authentication: JWT, OAuth 2.0
  • Authorization: RBAC

Operations

  • Containerization: Docker, Docker Compose
  • Orchestration: Kubernetes (AKS)
  • Infrastructure: Terraform
  • CI/CD: GitHub Actions
  • Cloud: Azure

Development Workflow

Branch Strategy

  • Main branches: alpha, main
  • Feature branches: feature/*
  • Hotfix branches: hotfix/*
  • Release branches: release/*

Naming Conventions

  • Beta-Alpha: main
  • main: main
  • Stable-Alpha: stable-alpha
  • Stable-Prod: stable-prod

Environments

  • Alpha: Development/staging environment
  • Prod: Production environment

Code Quality Standards

TypeScript

  • Strict typing (no any)
  • ESLint with TypeScript rules
  • Prettier formatting
  • Pre-commit hooks

Python

  • Type hints everywhere
  • Black formatting (line length 100)
  • isort for imports
  • Ruff for linting
  • mypy for type checking

Security Practices

Input Validation

  • Pydantic (Python)
  • Zod (TypeScript)
  • GraphQL schema validation

Secrets Management

  • Never commit secrets
  • Use environment variables
  • GitHub Secrets for CI/CD
  • Azure Key Vault for production

Security Scanning

  • Automated in CI/CD
  • Dependency vulnerability checks

  • Container image scanning

Infrastructure

Docker

  • Multi-stage builds
