Code

Instructions for a computer, typically written in a programming language, that are compiled or interpreted to perform specific tasks. Code is the raw material of software applications and infrastructure definitions.

Impact

Code is the realization of logic. The quality, readability, and maintainability of code directly determine the long-term viability of a digital product.

Weinto take

We follow the hierarchy: Values > Principles > Patterns > Code. Code is the easy part; understanding the why (Values) and the what (Patterns) is the hard part. We treat code as a liability to be minimized—the best code is the code you didn't have to write because you used a standard component.
