Background

I wrote these at the beginning of my journey within product management and these principles guide my decision making on a daily basis. These principles were written from the perspective of doing product management for data products but most could easily be used for other industries.

Principles

Grow. Products not growing faster than the market are becoming less relevant over time.
We are a subscription product. Customers buy us every second. We survive if they keep choosing us daily.
Ask yourself: "what am I requiring a user learn? how would they know to find this? when would they look?"
First, write down the problem.

Simple automated GIT Deployment using GIT Hooks

Here are the simple steps needed to create a deployment from your local GIT repository to a server based on this in-depth tutorial.

How it works

You are developing in a working-copy on your local machine, lets say on the master branch. Most of the time, people would push code to a remote server like github.com or gitlab.com and pull or export it to a production server. Or you use a service like deepl.io to act upon a Web-Hook that's triggered that service.

Using the Fetch Api with Django Rest Framework

Server

First, make sure you use the SessionAuthentication in Django. Put this in your settings.py

# Django rest framework
REST_FRAMEWORK = {
    'DEFAULT_AUTHENTICATION_CLASSES': [
 'rest_framework.authentication.SessionAuthentication'

	import { h, Component } from 'preact';
	import { Link } from 'preact-router/match';

	class Nav extends Component {

	constructor() {
	super();
	this.state.title = 'Navigation'
	}

	//
	// Smooth scroll-to inspired by:

	module.exports = function (scrollTo, scrollDuration) {

	//
	// Set a default for where we're scrolling to

	import uuid

	from django.db import migrations, models


	def fill_mymodel_uuid(apps, schema_editor):
	db_alias = schema_editor.connection.alias
	MyModel = apps.get_model('myapp', 'MyModel')

	"""A basic database set-up for Travis CI.

	The set-up uses the 'TRAVIS' (== True) environment variable on Travis
	to detect the session, and changes the default database accordingly.

	Be mindful of where you place this code, as you may accidentally
	assign the default database to another configuration later in your code.
