What does modern software development look like?

Many teams that develop a product nowadays feel like it's a bit like building a space ship only for it to be launched in a black hole.

Spoiler alert: it's not about the programming language, tabs versus spaces, or Subversion versus git: it's about people, teams, communication and of course best practices, for example having a CI/CD pipeline in place as early as possible. You also don't need to have a greenfield environment to start doing modern software development.
