9. How do you recognize ugly code?
10. Code Smells
11. •duplicate code •long methods •large classes •too many parameters Code Smells
12. •feature envy •inappropriate intimacy •contrived complexity •über-callback Code Smells
13. Why are you still writing ugly code?
14. Ugly Code is... •... hard to maintain •... even harder to debug •... impossible to change •... it does not make you happy
15. Companies have gone bankrupt because of ugly code.
16. At Kabisa we believe all code should be BEAUTIFUL
