Perspective

I think this is a great article: It Doesn’t Have to be Perfect

Really put into perspective inheriting a project and working on other people’s codebase. I’m certainly guilty of feeling frustrated from looking at “legacy” code and getting annoyed that it’s gonna take time and lots of effort to craft it into a level that I would be happy with.

This article was a very humble reminder that it’s all about mindset. Have a read.

TLDR:

• Respect
• Listen to legacy code and learn from it
• Acceptance; nothing is perfect
• Opportunity to refactor and improve your own skills
