Clever Code is usually good
The problem is showoff code

[aussieraver]

Absolutely agree.
Some coders think it's better to compact lines of code into one line.

It's impressive....but what the heck does it do.

[Raj-izuz]

Just started coding so good code & bad code all feels great when it works 😂🙏🏻

In JS world, we just let the transpiler make our code mysterious 😎

This shouldn't be called a clever code. Clever is used in positive terms. You can simply call it unreadable code with meaningless variables or functions etc

[amanagarwal]

sometimes, simple code is not scalable and results in code duplication. Plus mostly the code gets complicated due to design patterns. Instead, proper documentation of services and interface creation is the only solution.

no man clever code is a way of marking your territory its an animal instinct, like saying this is my shit right here

[oladipupolawal]

Nice. It needed to be said and you said it. Thanks

Hi Bro,
Really your content is too good.
Some additional points wanted to add:
--> Writing Unit Test should be appreciated. No worry later point, a unit test can be a good entry point to understand complex code for devs.
--> Reading every changeset on a weekly basis of your team's mates at a high level.
--> Taking part in POC's, collab with architects.
--> Taking full advantage of your IDE's for better debugging.
--> Be a Polyglot dev, to explore different programming paradigms (Highly influenced by Venkat Subramaniam Sir).
--> Following some good coding practices and conventions (prettier, stylecop etc).
--> Find a mentor that motivates and guides you.
...Lot more things 😊

So you're telling me using ternary operator is a bad thing?

[AlessandroBottoni]

Always prefer READABILITY over cleverness. The next poor programmer who will have to maintain that mysterious piece of code could be YOU.
