“Productive”?

Should be “production” but often just referred to as “prod”. Meaning the actual website the character/author is trying to use rather than a developer/staging website.

I know that but it’s odd the artist doesn’t. How can you write about IT and not know that?

“prod” remains “production” even if used as an adjective? Man, English really is weird sometimes. I’ll try to fix it later; I’m at work right now.

Production/prod is a noun in this case. It’s the name of the system/environment. Converting the noun into an adjective just doesn’t make sense.

It’s a system that is in production, it is the product, a production system, not a system that is producing.

I suppose that is a very native English thing. Sorry! Hope that helps.

“Production” refers to the released version of the software. “Productive” can refer to how useful something is, so I guess a productive website would be one that you use for work.
