Talk:
Ulysses versus The Very Hungry Caterpillar

The story of two codebases

As developers, we spend a significant proportion of our time reading code. The quality of that code can really impact how easily we understand and follow what it does. Poor code can be costly!

Taking two literary classics we will explore the challenges of complex code from the reader’s perspective. We will also look at the benefits simple code can bring.

With people increasingly utilising AI as part of their developer-toolkit, it’s important we examine the quality of our work. We need to embrace our creativity and write code that tell’s a simple and eloquent story.
