RECORDING: jug.ch YouTube-Channel

There are many concepts, principles and rules to discuss the design of source code.
Like SOLID, Code Smells, Cohesion and Coupling, LCOM4, and so on...

What if there would be a single concept which covers it all?
“The Grand Unified Theory Of Software Development” as Jim Weirich said in 2009?

The concept of Connascence is simple, yet very powerful in the context of Object Oriented software development. It generalises the ideas of Cohesion and Coupling and combines them in a more exhaustive classification under three axis, using a proper taxonomy.

Sounds scary? It’s actually easy to grasp when we will look together at real life code examples. Step by step, will will discover the different kinds of Connascence.

After this talk you will have another nice tool for your toolbelt as Software Developer. Connascence will give you practical pointers about how to improve your code day by day. And maybe, you will fall in love with Connascence like I did some years ago.

This talk is organized and brought to you in collaboration with our friends from the Software Crafts Romandie Meetup Group.

Due to the current situation with Covid-19, we are not currently holding any events on site. This event will be broadcast live on the Internet. You do not need to install any software or plugins, everything runs in your web browser. Registered participants will receive a link to the webinar by e-mail shortly before the event.
