🧠 There is a very important rule that you must keep in mind if you are a programmer.

You write code for other people to read.

That may sound easy. But let me say that I've been involved in many companies that don't mind about this.

Why?

📌 Most companies don't mind cleaning code. This seems like a waste of time for them. So they don't motivate their workers to do the same.

📌If it's working don't touch it. It's the most destructive rule but many companies adopt it because time is money baby.

📌If you can see it, you won't believe it. Many programmers have never seen clean code. That's why they don't understand the value of doing this.

So what I think are the most important values of this? If your code is clear...

💬 ... you'll spend less time cleaning and updating the code. 💬 ... new programmers on the team will adapt fastly. 💬 ... you will develop an empathic way to work because you put yourself in other's shoes. 💬 ... it looks more professional due that it has more value.

🤓 So.. how to learn this.

📎 Clean code - Robert C Martin. This is your header book for this way of programming.

📎 KISAP. Keep it as simple as possible. Try to think of small solutions. Many times we know how to do many things, but sometimes we have to stop thinking like we used to and try to do it simpler.

📎 Iterate. Make it works. After try to do it better . After make it cleaner.
