A Gentle Introduction To Refactoring

from Complete Developer Podcast

<blockquote style="text-align: justify; font-weight: 400; font-style: oblique;">"I want to reconfigure my code to best survive the environment it lives in, it's an evolutionary process." ~ Will</blockquote> <p>Refactoring is the process of making the internals of an application less painful to code without affecting the functionality of the app. Refactoring code improves the ability of developers to troubleshoot problems and increases the speed of developing new functionality. It involves decoupling internal components to keep dependency changes from causing major rework or reorganization of code in preparation for future operations. Organizational inertia and interpersonal disagreements about how to proceed may inhibit the ability to refactor. When refactoring start with small changes and a small locus of control, reference the architecture, and make short iterations before integration.</p> Hosted on Acast.
