The Most Important Code Isn't Code»
I cannot stress how much I agree with this. I’ve come to exactly the same conclusions as Zach in the last year myself. I wish I had written this post myself!
Here are my highlights:
Documentation is the best way to communicate your thoughts to yourself.
Forcing myself first to consider the API, the interface, and the end result led to a clarity that inspired less code and a more impactful project.
It improves the clarity of my code. I get more done in less lines.
But documenting your code is cool as hell. More importantly, it makes me feel more confident about my own code.
