@rusty-hacker why not? He is clearly asking for "what is the best...", Everyone has its own Idea of the best

@riekena To explain a bit: we are 2 (now 3 with the intern) on this project: me and the PM. We aren't in a tech-driven company, we are in a public health company and we are building a system for health structures in third countries, so my PM was first engaged to build a prototype of this system but he said he needed an Android Dev: here I come.

All this to say we are not in a usual environnement, we act like a startup inside a biggest company, so my PM needs to know what is going on about the system he is building

Wow. I don't know if I should laugh or cry

@jsframework9000 Yeah when I learned what it was I felt a bit stupid of not knowing it before, but still, everyone has to learn

@phexter I don't have any problems that she used that word or that I didn't know about it and I'm usually glad to learn new stuff (no matter if it's linked to my job or not) but I didn't like the way I've been judged for not knowing this

Devs wants to get spam during their week off.. Hope for them they won't read their mails :p

@mw108 But by doing like so you won't improve yourself because you will think "I can still code crap that I'm the only one to understand, it's safe".

Plus it won't improve your relation with the company you're working for, they will keep you because they are kind of forced to but not because they value your work as great work, it will make you much more happy to be in a company that keep you because they think "he's doing such a great work" then in one that says "we keep you not because we wants to but because we're forced to".

Well all this to say that maintenance in your code is as important, even more important, than the fact your code is doing its job.

Thanks but at this time I already take too much time to make this working that I won't touch it soon. But I keep it in mind for the next project !

My boss (not the CEO but the one just above me) is using light theme even after I tried to convince him to stop that heresy... Should I slap him?

True Words. I don't have lot of experiences in IT (only 23 years old) but from the desktops apps I made during my school days and the 2 years of Android development I have, I started web development a few months ago and I feel exactly the same.. Frameworks everywhere and nothing straight forward, always needing dependencies to do anykind of work..

This is sad but true.

First Time I shouldn't have read the comments, it really waste my time. But Nice rant, I learned things.

@nblackburn Unfortunetly no :(
