What is Production?
The live environment where real users access your application
Why It Matters
Production is where your work reaches actual users, so it needs to be reliable and well-tested
Real-World Example
The live version of your website that customers visit, as opposed to your test version
“Understanding terms like Production matters because it helps you have better conversations with developers and make smarter decisions about your software. You do not need to be technical. You just need to know enough to ask the right questions.”
From definition to deployment
Knowing the term is step one. Using it in something real is the rest.
