Magento 2 Mode
The Magento 2 store can run in different modes, depending on the environment, that can increase speed load.
The Magento 2 store can run in different modes, depending on the environment. Most users will want to use Production Mode as it’s the one recommended on a live environment but most don’t know that upon Magento 2 Installation the application is set out-of-box to run in Default Mode.
Default Mode #
This is a “mixed” mode Magento 2 runs in, this is the default run mode when installing Magento 2. This is not optimized for Production use and is a more in between mode.
$ bin/magento deploy:mode:set default
Default mode setting show:
Enabled default mode.
Developer Mode #
This is the mode that should be used only by developers for customization and development as it’s the least secure one and the slowest of the 3. To enable developer mode:
$ bin/magento deploy:mode:set developer
Setting developer mode for a deploy will show:
Enabled developer mode.
Production Mode #
This is the highly recommended mode to run your Magento 2 store in a live environment as it’s the most secure and fastest one.
$ bin/magento deploy:mode:set production
This will take some time depending on your server resources and output something along the lines:
Enabling maintenance mode
Config "dev/debug/debug_logging = 0" has been saved.
