On Coding and Application Development with 5 Items
The adventure begins with the first click, the beginning where you hope a planned design will do great work.
It is the first step of the gains (expectations) that have taken their share from the competition of technology giants and that bring ambition and passion...
This is the sadness of being divided into a thousand pieces, not being sure whether you are using the right technologies and programming languages! In addition, the dilemmas you experience while questioning why you need it are perhaps your most important dilemma in a period when your profession is going through!
Yes development and coding. We explore these concepts!
For developers, coding and personal skills are among the strongest references to get the job they want or to set sail for a startup. Programming languages and infrastructure diversity, which must be learned especially in the cloud and mobile era, not only adds a different dimension to the competition, but also increases the expectations from the developers. In this context; distributed — multi-platforms (Cross Platform), development operations (DevOps), versioning and continuous integration (CI, ALM), etc. processes bring new languages and technological infrastructures and create a bond of skill lines.
With the spread of technology, the benefits of enterprises, mobile platforms, network access speeds and the increase in the number of active users, the services offered over the internet and the elements that bring these services together have gained great importance. Let's compile a few topics for the two leading members of these elements, code and development processes.
1. Open Source (Open Source — Power of Community)
Not a day goes by that any of the technology giants does not share a new platform with the community!
When we evaluate the huge and popular code repository Github lately, a clear picture emerges. Microsoft .NET platform, Apple Swift programming language, Google and Facebook's web, mobile and UI developments are shared as open source projects.
Many open source projects, which have the support of the community, continue their active processes rapidly and gain new features every day. Thus, flexible, efficient and rapid development environments, libraries and documents can be created that can meet the needs of stakeholders, supporters and end users.
2. Quality
Yes, anyone can write code, but code written by a good developer can be read by anyone. One thing needs to be noted during the development process; the fact that reading the code is done more than writing it. Programs compiled from different sources (References, Libraries), codes written by your teammates and each integrated resource (API) are waiting for you to be examined and discovered. If you make the first change clearly and apply it yourself, you will create a common language that does not even need a comment line! But without ignoring the relative evaluations and comments!
3. Standardization
Write code that adheres to principles and meets requirements! Yes, but at this point, a subtle point will take you to the next level. Code that is maintainable, maintainable and quickly understandable! In this, a structure that you stick to no matter what will be much better than any freedom. (Coding Conventions)
4. Focus
Effective and target-oriented management of a team that comes together for a new project full-time is of great importance in terms of not wasting efforts and in terms of the final outcome. It must be ensured that the talents are sharing work at the right layers so that the team can produce the expected outputs. Anyone can do anything might sound plausible, but this option is theoretically equivalent to doing two full-time jobs at the same time! In such a situation, do you think you can maintain your work quality without sacrificing any of them?
Don't let anything affect your performance at your full-time job! In this way, each of your days will continue to contribute to you. Whatever you have learned and developed at that moment, proceed on that path and try to do it in the best way possible.
Make a difference by not missing the details!
5. Support
The infrastructure, system and coding you have been working on so far; When the analysis, development and testing processes are completed and presented to the users, it is now called a project and debuted in a brand new world. Everything is like an investment made for these days. The right architecture will enable you to provide effective and fast support in every sense.
At this point; The principles you stick to (SOLID), the methods and standards you apply will be at your side as your confidant and most effective assistant in this process.
Conclusion:
Of course you did your best! You have worked hard and you have taken your place in the sector as a member of a beautiful project. You have encountered such a moment that; You are about to lose the time and effort you stole from yourself, your family and friends at this table you play! things didn't go as you wanted and you couldn't implement the project for a reason beyond your control!
If you don't forget that this is part of the job, it will always give you a way out and give you a chance to do better...
