Qualities of great and worst devs Source: https://medium.com/javascript-scene/getting-to-10x-results-what-any-developer-can-learn-from-the-best -54b6c296a5ef
Solutions and value to business is much more important than
the latest language/framework.
Be strong in the basics.
First, solve the problem. Then, write the code. - John
Johnson
Writing simple and clear code is more difficult than writing
magic code.
Code reviews help both the reviewer and reviewee.
(Automated) Testing is easier than debugging.
Automation is King.
Application logs + monitoring save your sleep.
Non tech things are very important like proactive communication, being
on time etc.
You might not need that abstraction - like an ORM.
Thanks! Any questions? You can find me at @geshan &
Geshan.com.np There is no pill to convert yourself to a good programmer, it takes lots of reading, learning and practice. So start now. - source
