Baby Steps

Good code is a succession of small programming steps that would eventually create a well-written functionality. 
In order to create a clean, simple, and functional code, it is good to follow some of the best practices of programming: 

Let's say we want to create UI with following functionalities: 
- List 
- Add 
- Edit 
- Delete items 

1) Create a skeleton UI with "comming soon.." text, you test and commit code. 
2) Make a fake, hardcoded list and you display it , you test and commit code. 
3) Fetch the list via a service call that returns a fake list, , you test and commit code. 
4) Implement the DAO , you test and commit. 
5) Connect all pieces, you test and commit. 

Now you have the "list" and you can move to the "add" functionality.

My favorite quotations..


“A man should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”  by Robert A. Heinlein
