Meet.js Summit, Poznań
A production deployment is not the end of a frontend change; it is the moment where process, tooling, and ownership are tested. This talk follows the story of one Jira frontend commit moving through review, CI/CD, release, production validation, and then the uncomfortable path back when the change needs to be corrected.
The session treats delivery as a full engineering loop rather than a pull request handoff. It explains where frontend engineers meet build pipelines, release coordination, feature confidence, observability, incident response, and the decision between a hotfix, a rollback, and a roll-forward.
The main theme is preparation without panic. When a team understands what happens after merge, production failures become less mysterious: ownership is clearer, recovery is faster, and the same deployment process that ships features can also help bring the product back to a good state.
