How We Do Code Reviews at Cloud Four

Cloud Four shares their code review practices for small teams working with clients and contractors. Key guidelines include: requiring all code to be reviewed before production (enforced via GitHub branch protection rules), preferring many small focused PRs over large ones, writing PR descriptions that explain why a change is needed (not just what), and providing detailed step-by-step testing instructions. The post frames code review as a culture issue centered on reducing cognitive burden for reviewers and building a team that values quality.
