Upgrade and Maintenance
Keep projects based on the boilerplate up to date without destabilizing product delivery.
Recommended approach
- Track upstream boilerplate changes and pull them in small batches.
- Separate framework upgrades from product feature work.
- Validate upgrade risk with CI and smoke environments before release.
Implementation checklist
- Keep changelog diff notes for each upgrade cycle.
- Run regression tests focused on auth, payments, and critical flows.
- Track deprecated dependencies and breaking changes.
