This includes how teams think about gradual rollouts\, tes ting and preparing for future regressions\, and defining quality gates. Sh e will cover how external factors\, such as platform updates\, add complex ity\, and why maintainability and long‑term ownership matter just as muc h as the initial launch. When in college\, one doesn’t thinking about qu estions like: Will someone be able to read and understand my code two year s from now? What happens if an API I rely on changes five years down the l ine? What if something breaks in a way I didn’t anticipate?
