EVENT: CodeScene with Markus Borg

On January 31st, our Hamburg Office hosted a gathering of tech enthusiasts and industry experts for CodeScene Insights. Our team had the opportunity to attend, and we're excited to share some of the key insights and takeaways from the event that can benefit everyone, regardless of their level of expertise in software development.

Key Takeaways

One of the main things we learned is that it's surprisingly easy to find and fix simple issues in our code, which can lead to big improvements. We also discovered that how quickly we develop software is closely related to the overall health of our code. Using tools like Code Scene can help us improve this code's health, and we can even show off our progress with cool visualizations.  

Insights and Best Practices

We learned about "knowledge islands," which are areas of our code where only a few people understand what's going on. This can cause problems when those people leave the team. By using tools like Code Scene, we can identify and address these knowledge gaps. Plus, no matter what role you play in a development team, you can use these tools to get helpful advice and make better decisions.  

Impact on Work and Industry

By using tools like Code Scene to keep an eye on the health of our code, we can actually save time and avoid problems before they happen. This is a big deal because it means we can spend more time building cool stuff and less time fixing mistakes 

Exciting Technologies and Trends

One of the coolest things we heard about was Code Scene's way of measuring code health. They look at over 25 different factors to see how healthy our code is, and then they use colorful diagrams to show us the results. It's a really neat way to understand and improve our code.

Networking and Memorable Moments

Talking to other people at the event was really valuable. We got to hear different perspectives and share ideas. Plus, there were some fun moments, like chatting with others and winning the Kahoot competition!

Implementation Plans

Now that we're back from the event, we're excited to start using what we learned. We're going to focus on fixing easy problems in our code and paying more attention to things like code dependencies. And we're already using some of the cool statistics and stories we heard at the event to impress our clients. 

Recommendation

We highly recommend attending future Code Scene Events to anyone interested in software development. It's a great opportunity to learn new things, meet interesting people, and get inspired to make our code even better. 

In summary, the Code Scene Event in Hamburg was a fantastic opportunity to learn and grow. By taking what we learned and putting it into practice, we're confident that we can become even better software developers and make a positive impact in our industry.
