(Tennessee Leeuwenburg) Balancing short-term and long-term objectives during software development forms an underpinning tension which often exhibits during code reviews, sprint planning and prioritisation.
Audiences should attend to see how concepts like modularity, consistent design language and the use of software patterns can be seen as an expression of managing cost and complexity over time, and how this perspective can help bring clarity to processes such as code reviews, sprint planning, prioritisation and effort estimation.
This talk comprises an exploration of how to discuss trade-offs during software development, based on technical examples.
