Code Smells
https://blog.codinghorror.com/code-smells/ This blog post will center on code smells which was a topic covered in class fairly early on. The reason why I’m going back to it is mainly to refamiliarize myself with the subject since it wasn’t a major topic in class. Code smells are defined by the blog post linked above as generalContinue reading “Code Smells”
DRY (Don’t Repeat Yourself)
https://thevaluable.dev/dry-principle-cost-benefit-example/ I’ve chosen to talk about a very simple design principle this week called “Don’t Repeat Yourself”, DRY for short. It’s a topic that is covered in this class according to the syllabus and I chose it since its similar to another topic I covered YAGNI in that they’re easy to understand design principles. TheContinue reading “DRY (Don’t Repeat Yourself)”

Software Frameworks

The two main reasons I chose to write about this topic is because of one, it’s listed as one of the topics to be covered in class and two, I’m not too familiar withContinue reading “Software Frameworks”
Thoughts on YAGNI
The link at the very bottom is an article focusing on a design philosophy YAGNI which is one of the topics we’re supposed to cover in class, though we haven’t gotten to it yet as of my writing this. The name is an acronym of “You Ain’t Gonna Need It” which is basically means ifContinue reading “Thoughts on YAGNI”
