Title: The most beautiful code in the world
Proposer: Gil Zilberfeld
Type: Workshop
Duration: 90 mins
Description:
We don’t get many opportunities to make our code as beautiful as it can be. We try to do our best, but
due to pressure, deadlines, or conflicting ideas of what beauty is, we stop.
Not this time. In this workshop, we’ll write the most beautiful code we can. Nothing is more important,
and you have all the time to make it so. It’s about showing off!
We’ll start from a simple goal, and using TDD (or not, it’s your choice) will design the code. Once we
identify a code smell, we’ll deodorize it. The code needs to work, (and you need to supply proof), but
otherwise, it’s open season on simplicity and beauty.
This session is all about deliberate practice, and this time we’re focusing on form. Make it a classic!
