Lessons Learned: Code Review
I had my first informal code review yesterday. By informal, I mean my lead and I sat in a room and just went through the website I recently built for a client.
It’s always hard when someone calls your baby ‘ugly’ but I also think character is built when you take criticism well. We weren’t going to do a review, but I specifically asked for two reasons.
- To make sure I wasn’t delivering a shoddy product
- To learn from my mistakes and their expertise
my lessons:
- Mobile first is easier than last.
- Assume everyone will look at the site on a mobile device.
- You have to test on various browsers – IE is still prevalent no matter how much you avoid it.
- Bootstrap is structured so that you use a container, row and columns.
- Usually, if you add rows and columns at the start of your section, you don’t need to repeat yourself through out that section unless you are creating multiple columns.
- Embracing technologies you haven’t used before, in this case jquery, is fun.
- Estimating is hard so under commit and over deliver.
- Ask for a code review as soon as possible instead of waiting until the end.
