Clean Code

Writing Code that Speaks

This video introduces our series on software professionalism. Let's imagine that we all live and work in a giant O'Neil habitat, plying the orbits between Earth and the Asteroid belt; gathering solar energy and mining the asteroids for volatiles, minerals, and metals. Such a vessel requires a lot of software. The software teams on board are led by "The General".

Over the next weeks and months, Micah and Uncle Bob will re-implement the cleancoders.com website in Java before your very eyes. You'll see them applying all the principles, patterns, and practices that you've been learning in the Clean Code series. But instead of learning about those principles, patterns, and practices, you'll see how they use them in real life.

The Web has been a dominant platform for over twenty years, but over that time code quality has been surprisingly low. An entire generation of developers came up through the ranks with a working understanding that front-end code was hard to write well, and harder to maintain over time. How did we get here, and how can we make positive changes towards quality in our browser code?

In this Clean Code Java course you will learn useful software principles that you can use in your every day programming.

Become a professional Kotlin developer and write cleaner code in your Android apps than in Java, avoid boilerplate code

Exploring functional programming with Uncle Bob, because it is there!

The second promise of The Programmer's Oath is: The code that I produce will always be my best work. I will not knowingly allow code that is defective either in behavior or structure to accumulate.

Now of course you realize that an episode entitled Small Releases would be all about source code control systems – right? Not just about source code control, but about the history of source code control. Makes perfect sense, right? Well, that's what you've got in store in this episode.
