The Myth About Better Code

So many software engineers and engineering managers don't actually understand the relationship between code velocity and code quality. This lesson will teach you:

  • Why code quality and code velocity aren't at odds with one another, completely busting the myth that writing better code makes you ship more slowly as a software engineer. In fact, they actually go quite well together!
  • The true, nuanced relationship between how good a software engineer's code is and how fast they move
  • Where you want to be as a software engineer when it comes to balancing code quality and code velocity
  • How the highest-performing software engineers use their stellar code quality as an asset to move faster and land more impact than everyone else
