Highlights

Version Control (Git)00:09:26

Use Git from the start. Create small, logical commits with clear, descriptive messages to demonstrate professional workflow and history management.

Problem Solving and Planning00:00:45

Focus on projects that solve real-world problems. Create a basic plan regarding the tech stack, database, and front/back-end components before writing code.

Directory and Folder Structure00:03:51

Maintain consistency in file naming. Separate source code into logical directories like 'apps', 'libs' for shared code, and 'assets'. Use modular structures to avoid overly large, unreadable files.

Documentation and Maintenance00:12:30

Create an installation guide and troubleshooting document. Include clear instructions for contributors and maintain logical documentation within project sub-directories.

Testing and CI/CD00:14:55

Implement basic unit and integration tests. Set up CI/CD pipelines to automate testing and deployment, making the project easily accessible to others.

Refactoring and Improvement00:17:31

Step away from the code for a few days after completion, then return to refactor and polish the codebase for better maintainability and quality.
