10 Coding Principles Explained in 5 Minutes 

"remember code tells you how comments tell you why" This is actually so good 🔥

I have 14 years of experience as a business architect, yet I see people doing better job at summarising concepts in our pipelines here (not to mention, in the most creative way possible). I love your book too. Cheers! Thanks...🎉

I really like your content and I really like the “5 minute video” format, I think this length is optimal for tech video.

Excellent reminders and suggestions! 😎✌️

Finally getting serious about this path and was happy to run across this site. Looking forward to benefiting from past and future tips and guidelines.

Not sure if anybody told you this. But you are awesome. You have this capability to dumb down complex concepts in a brilliant way. "Dumbing down"... that is your super power.

I follow you on LinkedIn and RU-vid. Out of curiosity, I have one thing mesmerizing about how you are making these beautiful gif. Keep posting content like this.

THANK YOU for bringing the obvious truth to the masses: Code tells you 'How', comments tell you 'Why'. My colleagues seem to be to stupid to understand this and will simply deny writing any comments at all.

This is a coding principles explanation video. All codedwarfship is of the highest quality. It is encrusted with clear, eye-catching visuals and reassures with simple, easy to apply tips. In the video is a reminder to write comments for "why", not "how". It relates to whole swaths of coders not writing a single line of documentation anywhere. Jokes aside, the quality and density of advice given here is through the roof!

A great step by step explanation of principles developers should employ!!

This is Nice, thanks 👍

Great 👍

Awesome video ❤

Really love your videos, very informative 🙂

This is a great video with really valuable recommendations. Thus, please take my comments regarding the typos not as a critique of the content. - At 2:07 in the SOLID principles explanation section, I noticed a typo ISP => Interface Segregation Principle. The word Interface is misspelled. - At 2:30 the interface Eatable is misspelled (Estable in the video) - At 3:02 the last sentence of Security Test. It probably should state "penetration" testing (instead of penetrating testing) - At 4:41 the content of the white circle probably should be Refactor instead of Refractor

00:01 Coding style ensures consistent and readable code. 00:40 Write clean, understandable code with helpful comments 01:24 Robustness is key in coding principles 02:07 Coding principles help create modular and organized code. 02:49 Use single responsibility principle and automated testing for success 03:31 Database class helps keep main app logic clean 04:16 Passing parameters enhances code organization and understandability. 05:00 Security is everyone's job in coding.

Your comment on 'robustness' is extremely important. People usually write code on the 'happy path.' However handling errors, bad data, and anomalies is critical. Code in production simply can't fail. It has to handle any situation.

Thank you for your wonderful contents. P.S: There's a typo in 2:34, eatable interface is estable And Easy to test is East to test in the side of the circle

Hello! I love it! And how to create those awesome visuals like in the video? Anyone know? Thanks

Code style != Code structure, always remember to make your code extensible and maintainable with design patterns

informative!

I love your videos and watch every single one of them, but I have a recommendation. I have been noticing an increase in typos over recent videos, like for example in SOLID the Interface Segregation Principle has a typo and a line below that also is having a mistake in DIP acronym. I love your videos but doing a grammar review once before uploading would be a good indicator for your audience to show the amount of effort you put into your videos, and before major typos become a thing. Lovely video otherwise, lots of great information :D

Great graphics! Who does them for you?

I strongly agree all of them. Nonetheless, I noticed that a passion to do so and a habit to do so are more important. Often times, they compromise and do not spend 1 more hour on writing better comments but simply call it a day.

What tools do you use for your animation and video? Thanks :)

In the SOLID section the header says Robustness

Commenting is very hard. I like the traditional style emacs lisp is commented: each style starts with a big comment giving some commentary. Each file also ends with a comment, but this is mostly for historical reasons. functions defined by defun, variables defined by defvar and defcustom as well as macros (note: lisp macros aren’t not preprocessor macros) have an in-build document-string. This means that documentation is defined while writing code, but accessed independently of it. If you want to use a function you first pull out the document string, not the definition. The system forces you to write actually useful comments because you can’t rely on the code to explain your documetation. After this, comments on code are rarely needed. You can still make them of course, but you already wrote few paragraphs describing the whole file and you wrote documentation for each function so you rarely need to clarify the implementation. Many comments feel necessary only because the purpose and intended usage of the whole function or module was never written down. After those are clarified, the code can be awkward and non-straightforward, but still be understood. Good types and names can do this, but one brief documentation paragraph or two makes it very clear.

imagine the pain you have to go through having him as your pull request reviewer

assertions? never seen those

Who spotted the typo at 2:32?

Just do TDD.

SOLID has been way over hyped, and people continue to blindly cite it.

these ofc arent dogmas

These 5min videos get very fast. They don't solve the purpose unless you already know the topic well and you just want to revise.

Saying the *_word_* sequel when you mean the *_acronym_* SQL is confusing and illogical. You don't turn an acronym into a word unless the entire acronym IS a word, or you are simply using the word *_the acronym actually represents._* Throwing that entirely unrelated word in as an unnecessary expansion of the shortened acronym is going in the opposite direction of the entire point of using an acronym in the first place, and it is only confusing. Because nobody can tell which letters comprise the actual shortened term, phrase or title and which letters were just arbitrarily thrown in to make it a word. We pronounce SWAT because all the letters are in the word, but we spell out FBI instead of throwing a few more vowels and consonants in to confuse people. We don't call the FBI "FibBIng cops" Sequel is a now defunct proprietary DBMS that stopped being used or sold in the mid 1980s. SQL is an acronym for structured query language. Is you say "ess, kyew, ell" I might have a chance at figuring out s stands for struxtured, q stands for query and l stands for language. When you say sequel I might decide that sequel is how you pronounce the acronym SEQL or SQUL and now I'm thinking you're talking about symmetrical energy quotient levels of Standardized Electronic Quartz Lighting because I lost context and have nothing to work with besides the phonetic sound "sequel."

I disagree on the comments, good good does not need any comments, the functions/methods/classes names should speak for itself ...
