What is Build It Better?
Creating great software is not just about completing tickets faster, adding more features, or fixing more bugs.
Build It Better helps software developers and teams learn how to go beyond code, design, and product, and learn how to make smarter project choices.
Build It Better is written and sent every Wednesday by me - Jonas Fleur-Aime, a Lead Software Developer, Engineering Manager, and Startup Advisor. I share what I've learned after spending 15 yrs as a software developer and leading teams on projects big and small.
