Hans Christian Reinl | Writing awesome code | Fronteers 2012 Jam Session

· Coding and stuff · 2 · 0 reacties · 0 trackbacks ·

Writing code is hard. Especially when you have to work in a team and everyone writes his or her code differently. As if it wouldn't be hard enough to understand and implement the functionality of an app. To work against barriers of understanding code define how your team writes code. Set up coding guidelines and style guides so you can focus on funcionality. This is not limited to your JavaScript-Code: Give some love to your HTML and CSS as well. As a result you reduce the time you spent doing tasks that are less to your joy and let you focus more on the work that you love.
