Round Peg, Square Hole: How to Know If a Developer is a Good Fit for Your Team
Over the last few months, we have been recruiting developers, and we’ve started to get a sense for the type of developer who is a good fit for our team. These attributes probably apply for developers at most web startups, so I wanted to share them with you. Before I get into it, the most important thing to know is that technical skill is a threshold requirement. The assumption is that any person who is a fit for our team will have the relevant technical experience t...

Writing unit tests for legacy code – an open letter to developers I work with
This is an email I sent today to developers who work with me, it is exactly as I wrote it except for project and developer names which I’ve redacted. Dear Developers, S asked me a difficult question today, and I think the answer (which took me a few minutes to arrive at) is worth sharing with all developers, mainly because many of you will surely face the exact same problem especially in [maintenance and enhancement] projects. By now I think it is crystal clear that one of our non-ne...

Designing Great API Docs
Writing documentation is one of those things that is dreaded by many developers. It takes a lot of effort and time to get right. And too often, people take shortcuts. This is sad, because well designed documentation is the key to getting people excited about your project, whether it's open source or a developer focused product. In fact, I argue that the most important piece of UX for a developer product isn't the homepage or the sign up process or the SDK download. It's the API documentati...

Why no max/min function for integer in GoLang
You may notice that there is no max/min function provided to compare the maximum/minimum of two or more integers if you are a GoLang developer with some experience . In other languages, these functions are provided as part of the core lib functions. Have you wondered why? Indeed GoLang provides max/min function in math package, but they are used for comparing float64 data type. The signature of these two functions are math.Min(float64, float64) float64 math.Max(float64, float64) float...
My love… for Expressive Programming Languages
I started out my journey with programming as a teenager learning GW-BASIC. Soon I learnt C language followed by C++. I was impressed with the OO syntactic constructs C++ had on offer but I felt a little uneasy with a few constructs such as the scope resolution. I started studying Java. It immediately caught my attention with the syntactic improvements and simplifications it brought over C++. I was still in academics, so learning(precisely trying) programming languages on su...

7 Resources Every JavaScript Developer Should Know
A web developer today is expected to be an expert in every aspect of their craft and JavaScript is no exception. Years ago JavaScript seemed to be more of an annoyance, producing those trailers at the bottom of the browser. This has changed and JavaScript is a first-class citizen as a functional programming language and what seems like an unlimited number of resources covering the language. I have been doing more and more JavaScript lately, both on the front-end and some node.js...
