To ensure your architecture adheres to OutSystems best practices before development, you should:

Consulting with an experienced OutSystems architect and utilizing the Architecture Dashboard is essential for aligning your architecture with best practices before development begins. Engaging with an expert ensures that you can leverage their experience to identify potential issues and design inefficiencies early in the process. The Architecture Dashboard provides analytical insights and best practice assessments, enabling you to evaluate your architecture against recognized standards and guidelines specific to OutSystems. This proactive approach minimizes the risks associated with architectural flaws, ensures effective resource use, and ultimately leads to a more maintainable and performant application.

This strategy emphasizes the importance of thorough planning and validation before jumping into development, which can save time and resources in the long run by addressing architectural concerns upfront rather than resorting to refactoring after significant development work has already been completed.
