Heraklion Software Craftsmanship Community’s session – Naming: The Hardest Problem in Programming

Naming is one of the most overlooked aspects of software development.
Yet, it is the single most important factor in understandable, maintainable code. In this hands-on session, we’ll explore what makes good names. We’ll take the time (we might not have every day) to take our variable, function and class names on a journey from bad (think `var x` ) => average => good!

Expect lots of refactoring, disagreements and lively discussions, because… There can be only ONE (name) !!

As for the Heraklion Software Craftsmanship Community

This is a community for those who want to take software development one step (at a time) further. Those who believe in not just getting the job done, but want to be proud about the kind of work they produce. It is not a community for experienced, old, senior or advanced developers. Anyone who is passionate about improving on the software development craft is very welcome!

From The Software Craftsmanship manifesto:

As aspiring Software Craftsmen we are raising the bar of professional software development by practicing it and helping others learn the craft. Through this work we have come to value:
  • Not only working software, but also well-crafted software
  • Not only responding to change, but also steadily adding value
  • Not only individuals and interactions, but also a community of professionals
  • Not only customer collaboration, but also productive partnerships

That is, in pursuit of the items on the left we have found the items on the right to be indispensable.
