Software developers play a key role in the architecture and design of any project. The current modern architecture world requires modern or smart developers who are equipped with a variety of practical skills. Naturally, socialization and intelligence are the developers of the world. So how should we define smart developers? There are five key fields:
1. focus and target-oriented
Start reflecting on and planning your career. For your code, you should:
- Modularization-personalization and specialization-both aspects need to be well considered and your to-do list needs to be organized on a regular basis.
- Stay clean and follow the rules-we need to follow the coding rules and our own rules, and keep the goals clean and measurable.
- Maintain loose coupling-do not couple many targets together-maintain simplicity and flexibility to change independently.
- Measurable maintenance-keep the target based on SLA and measured every two weeks, every month, every quarter, and every year. the more frequently, the better.
2. promote and marketing your ideas
- This is the most neglected aspect and the most difficult part. You need to inform others of your ideas before they can be implemented. to achieve these goals, you must first marketing your ideas to others.
- Storytelling is a well-known means to convey ideas in a way that everyone can understand.
- SapientNitro redefined Storytelling to Storyscaping. this is a new way to tell stories, which connects experience (for marketing ). This can also be used in normal storytelling.
3. improve work efficiency
Continuous efforts and thinking process to create new and improved ways of doing things. A simple example is: by detecting early problems, Jmeter scripts are used to perform performance tests at the unit level and reduce quality costs.
Share your knowledge with your team (in the form of a blog or online meeting ). This will help improve the efficiency of the entire team and give feedback to others.
4. learn to keep up with the times
- By reading Blogs from leading high-Tech companies (Netflix Tech Blog, Oracle OTN, AWS Blogs, IBM Emerging Tech Blog, DZone, TechGig, TechCrunch)
- Browse high-tech company developer websites (such as Facebook for Developers, Twitter Developers, Amazon AWS)
- Raise Questions on the Q & A website (such as Quora and Stackoverflow)
- Learn from MOOC websites (Coursera, Udemy, etc.) or YouTube channels
- Finally, use the following channels for key technical figures/companies on social media (Twitter, LinkedIn, etc ).
5. have a healthy mind, body, and soul
This is the most important thing, because it can maintain a person's spirit, ensure that we have a fresh and healthy mentality to deal with any challenge, and come up with innovative ways to do things.
All in all, these five skills can help us achieve more success in the current dynamic and rapidly changing technology world.
