CHAPTER 10

When you are done with your UI, now its the right time to code and manipulate your application in terms of syntax and logic. The chapter is entitled “Code”, as well.

Personally, this chapter is my favorite chapter of the getting real guiding principles and concepts. Eventhough the chapter talks about coding, and to admit it I’m not that of a good programmer, to refer to it directly I’m a not a hardcore programmer, but still I love this chapter. You know why? because in this chapter it doesn’t just tackle coding as well as some life insights and ecouragement to pursue your life each and everyday. Motivation, excitement and happiness are some of the things mentioned to this section. It says that being optimistic is a good way because for that condition you are able to make productive things. Craftmanship and passion are the keys that can make you a better person and professions. Your job defines who you are and your devotion to your job should always bring you motivation and enjoyment. Programming are not just codes you implement and then execute but by doing this also, though be able to express what is that you really want, and so as for the other occupations you want to pursue. And this should be the way it is.

Other discussions that was covered throughout the chapter is to build lesser software because this might save you to any bigger problems that might arise in the future. Also,  let’s code much better because you are able to maintain your web app as simple as it can be. After some time try to re examine and evaluate your codes to remove some of the unnecessary codes. Lastly, just a reminder make it a habit to put up newsfeeds and updates to inform everyone about what’s new to your site and as well as to enchance and develop your features as coming from your customers, clients and users.
