Quick Book Review: Tidy First

📘 Every software engineer should read Kent Beck's new book, "Tidy First". Here's why:

🔍 Beck dives into the nitty-gritty of tidying code at a granular level and how that is important. While some concepts were familiar, there were a few golden nuggets in there that I was not aware of. Awesome!

💡 Frameworks: The concepts are neatly packaged into a framework, facilitating easy understanding and recall. This structured approach is a major plus for communicating within and across teams.

🧠 Theory: My favorite part is the theory section at the end. Beck doesn't just present concepts; he explains the underlying rationale, allowing readers to adapt and modify these principles while staying true to their core purposes. The concepts readily translate to managing tech debt in general.

🚀 Concise: The book is succinct, making it a perfect read even on a short flight. Its brevity doesn't compromise the depth of the content.

Highly Recommended: Whether you're a seasoned software engineer or just starting out, "Tidy First" offers valuable insights. It's a must-read for anyone looking to refine their coding practices.
