Being a Dev !
Nowadays every CEO, each company is talking about “Digital”, it is the master piece every entreprise in the world. Behind “Digital” there is Code. And behind Code, there is “Developers” or “Devs” as we call us. For decades I have been developing softwares for a big french telecom company, spending my time between developing in Cobol, C, Java, Kotlin, … and attending meetings. I let you guess the percentage between these 2 activities :)
As developers we are the soldiers in the front line of the “Digital World” but we are also the Officer that set up the strategy and make some operational decisions. It is too many times forgotten by Devs but this is a true power we should be aware of.
Our World is moving fast but Computer Science is moving even faster. So, as a Dev, we are “on the Edge”. In everyday we have to learn new paradigmes, new languages, new frameworks. It is quite a challenge and there some kind of gamble to make the right choice.
So It’s been a while since I wanted to share my experience and my point of view on “Being a Dev”, so I have started this blog.
I will talk about any reflexions, issues, new paradigmes, ReST API and code I encounter in my day to day work.
