7 Rules Every C# Developer Should Follow
Who on earth wrote this?
Remember the time when you first stumbled upon a chunk of code and thought, “Who on earth wrote this?”. Well, I’ve been there.
And let me tell you, I’ve learned that the difference between a ‘good-enough’ and a ‘great’ programmer often lies in the small details and practices they follow.
Here are the seven rules that I swear by in C# development.
Embrace SOLID: Your Code’s Backbone
SOLID principles? They’re vital. They make your C# code scalable and maintainable. Dive into them with resources like Microsoft’s documentation. “Clean Code” by Robert C. Martin? Highly recommended.
Design Patterns
Design patterns solve common problems. They’re like your coding cheat sheet. Get to grips with them at Refactoring Guru. Their examples are super clear.
Readability is Key
Readable code saves future you a headache. Be clear, be concise. Need guidance? “The Art of Readable Code” by Dustin Boswell and Trevor Foucher is a fantastic start.
