When I was in college I had to code a piece of software for use on the college Intranet.

When it came time to deploy, I went to the network admin to set the package up for distribution.

His first reply, "oh, it's only 8mb, thats so sad".

WHAT THE FUCK DOES IT MATTER AS LONG AS IT DOES THE JOB!

    @projektaquarius lol, the bulk of it was .net dependencies, my code was probably fractional 👍🏻

    @jacojvvdev That'll do it. Some of mine is .net, some is GUIs, some is corporate insistence that sharing code saves money so code bloat from unneeded things because shared code.

    Currently working on so many different things at work, but I have a lot of creative freedom, so I manage all packages and frameworks.

    That way I keep it nice and small.

    But I can see how just adding everything in for "reuse" can really bloat a project.

    The smaller an application with the same features, behaviour and maybe GUI, the better the developer is. If someone knows how to keep the application nice and lightweight, he's a good dev.
