Ulysses versus The Very Hungry Caterpillar


Session Type: Talk

As AI becomes more prevalent in our industry, it’s more important than ever to recognise the value of true craftsmanship. In this talk, we’ll draw insights from two literary classics to explore why writing clean, thoughtful code still matters.

As developers, we spend a significant proportion of our time reading code. The quality of that code can really impact how easily we understand and follow what it does. Poor code can be costly!

Taking two literary classics we will explore the challenges of complex code from the reader’s perspective. We will also look at the benefits simple code can bring.

With people increasingly utilising AI as part of their developer-toolkit, it’s important we examine the quality of our work. We need to embrace our creativity and write code that tell’s a simple and eloquent story.
