Do you want to write better, more maintainable, and more scalable code? Then you'll want to learn about the SOLID principles. In this thread, I'll be explaining each principle and why it's important for software development. Get ready to level up your coding skills! #javascript

The Single Responsibility Principle: A class should only have one reason to change. This promotes modularity and makes it easier to maintain and extend code.

The Open-Closed Principle: Software entities (classes, modules, etc.) should be open for extension but closed for modification. This helps prevent unexpected side effects from changes.

1/ A software engineer is a solution provider not only someone who writes code or helps to get code written.
#softwareEngineering #webDevelopment #code #softwareEngineer #solution #value #business

2/ Code is one of the ways to reach a solution, not the only way.
All the points at: geshan.com.np/blog/2022/09/s…

3/ Solutions have value, mainly in terms of money earned or money saved. So the software you write is a path to saving money or earning more money for the business.

What is an API?

thread 🧵👇
#API #programming #coding #SoftwareDeveloper #softwaredevelopment #SoftwareEngineering

API is the acronym for Application Programming Interface, which is a software intermediary that allows two applications to talk to each other. Each time you use an app like Facebook, send an instant message, or check the weather on your phone, you’re using an API.

What an API Also Provides Is a Layer of Security
Your phone’s data is never fully exposed to the server, and likewise the server is never fully exposed to your phone. Instead, each communicates with small packets of data, sharing only that which is necessary—like ordering takeout

How does a software engineering team determine the value of a feature? My answer in thread #startup #product #softwareengineering

The value of a feature can be determined by three variables:

Effort required (the lower, the better)
Alignment with company’s goals (the more aligned, the better)
Shelf life (the longer, the better)

Let’s compare two examples below:

A - A landing page that is going to take 5 weeks to build but will only be available for a week. The reason for the page is to announce a new product offering, as per company’s goals

At some point, in everyone's tech careers, the time spent on refining technical skills will lead to generating less business value.

The law of diminishing returns kicks-in.

Let me explain – a 🧵

1/ As professional software engineers working in for-profit organizations (whatever the scale) our main objective is to increase business value.

This is an umbrella objective under-which everything else falls.

2/ Our compensation is "often" tied to our ability to increase / generate business value.

At the beginning, the more we enhance our technical skills the more business value we will be able to generate because:

We'll be using those skills to build faster, more reliable solutions

The Counter-Intuitive Nature of Software Engineering & Product Development, A Thread:

I had a 1:1 meeting with @jgehtland a couple of weeks back, and I'm not sure exactly how we landed on a weird topic and a message behind a famous "Programming T-Shirt."

🧵 🧵🧵

Funny enough, when Justin was trying to remember the exact T-Shirt's quote during our call, he said the following:

--> "Hours of Typing can save you Minutes of Thinking." instead of "Weeks of Programming can save you Hours of Planning."

Close enough!

He also mentioned a great quote he learned since he started to work with Brazilians at Nubank:

--> "Devagar, que tenho pressa."

TOP 5 TIPS FOR TDD

Last night's video reminded me that there are a lot of good developers out there still making simple mistakes when it comes to #TDD.

Below are my tips for success and why it WILL work for you.

A THREAD 🧵🪡

#SoftwareDevelopment #SoftwareEngineering

1) Always start with a test.

Writing the test first shapes your design for the better. Starting with a test will set you up to code in an attempt to pass your test, rather than continuously going back to fix code that's tested too late, and failing.

Start as you mean to go on.

2) New project? It's TDD time.

There's no better time to start using a modern software engineering technique like TDD than when you start new work.

It's a clean slate and a chance for you to make better software and reduce wasted time.

Once upon a time, one #SoftwareEngineering provider decided to make an online slot based on the well-known fairytale about a young boy on his quest to become rich. Released by NetEnt in 2011, Jack and the Beanstalk became an instant smash hit and still remains highly popular

Working in Tech and relocating to Europe or the USA is NOT about merit. Let me explain, a thread 🧵 #Programming #SoftwareEngineering

1/ People born in countries with limited accessibility to the west share a common misconception that finding a job and relocating to a western country is about merit or having above average skills.

2/ while it is true that having above average skills will open many doors for you, this is not the full story. Companies hiring in these desired destinations are looking for top talent WHILE remaining cost effective and reducing risk!

We take a deep dive into creating a successful internship program for software engineers with Tom Sommer, Engineering Director @redbubble. 🤿

Check out the interview: codingsans.com/blog/creating-…

Powered by @codingsans, hosted by @FancyKarolina. 🎤
Here are some key takeaways:

Set clear goals for everyone
Including the program and the interns. Do you want to provide industry insight to your interns, or are you scouting the next Elon Musk? What do they have to do to get hired? Find these answers before moving forward.

Set the bar going in
Most companies can support interns who are fresh out of college, bootcamp, or have real coding experience. Many companies can’t support interns who have never seen code. There’s a wide range in-between, make sure to find the sweet spot for your company.

A thread on how I managed to encrypt and store a video using #Flutter

Scroll for links, code snippets, and my general thought process...

Recording and saving videos locally isn't too difficult.

Dependencies:
- camera
- path_provider

#flutter #android #s21 #video #coding

Below is the code for getting a file reference:

Encryption on the other hand is a foreign language to me. From my research, I learned that each user needs an #AsymmetricKeyPair that can be used to #encrypt and #decrypt data.

To generate these, I used the rsa_encrypt package.

I'm a network engineer, and have familiarity with network vendor's software. I also worked at Amazon for almost 17 years. AFAIK, the different mindsets around testing and who owns quality is very different and I think is very imporant. #networking #SoftwareEngineering

I've never worked at a network vendor, but I've talked to engineers in many of them. I've also hired and worked with ex-network-vendor engineers and management. Almost every single one thinks that testing and quality are the test team's responsibility, not the software team.

At Amazon/AWS, this isn't true at all. Just like with operations, for the most part the engineers who write the code own the test and the ops. I think this approach delivers much better quality and systems that are much more operatable.

5 tips that will improve the design and quality of your #software:

1. Write shorter functions (methods) that do just one thing ("single responsibility principle").

2. Decrease the number of decision points (aka "cyclomatic complexity") per unit (function, method, etc).
...

...
3. Avoid duplication at all cost!

4. Keep your interfaces small (e.g. the number of arguments a function or class receives).

5. Separate concerns by making your code more modular.

What have all these tips in common?

They lead to more robust and moldable software:

1. Components become more loosely coupled and are therefor easier to reuse, test and extend (support new use cases).

Several days ago, I published a tweet where I asked which of these two statements was better:

1⃣ dog.expressHappiness();
2⃣ dog.getBody().getTail().wag();

Many things can be said in favor of the first statement.

A thread 🧵 1/6

#SoftwareEngineering #oop #100DaysOfCode

The first statement:

🔹 Increases readability: it expresses the intent of the code clearly.
🔹Reduces complexity: it contains only one method call.
🔹Hides implementation details: it expresses "what" the code does, not "how". 2/6

The second statement makes changes difficult.

❓ What happens if happiness must now be expressed by "jumping and barking"?

We have to apply changes in all places where statement 2 (or a similar version of it) appears.

This is how systems become *rigid* and hard to change. 3/6
