Prebuilds trade background compute for near-instant Codespace startup. Pin your base image, keep postCreateCommand fast and idempotent, and verify the build succeeds before relying on it.
Fedora enables Btrfs zstd compression by default, but the practical decision is whether to keep it, tune it, or disable it. Here is how to measure and decide.
Decide between layered config files, process.env, or an external secrets manager for KrakenJS, with a boot-time validation pattern that keeps one artifact deployable and secrets out of version control.
