Going to Production Tips And Tricks
Hey,
Let's say that you have a project you work on for some client, and you work on it for a few months. When you are done, you want to deploy the app to a hosting service.
My question is: What are the steps you take (during both development and in production) to make sure the application is ready for the client/users to use it?

In the server side, I would check that you have all the required software for your application to work: extensions, versions, etc. On big projects, I usually have a checklist to run through before adding/promoting a server to production. This is applicable in any size app.

I would recommend using Rocketeer if you're looking for a deployment tool. It's pretty slick. Other than that, a lot of people seem to enjoy using Forge. I like to have more fine-grained control of my servers though, so I typically use my own provisioning script (on Linode) and manage my own servers.

Forge is awesome. It makes deployment so easy.
