Writing clean code is what you must do in order to call yourself a professional. There is no reasonable excuse for doing anything less than your best. — Clean Code

How do you learn how to write better code?

Maybe there’s a secret book that only the experts whisper about via private Slack channels?

Or an online course or school that would teach me how to write cleaner code with less bugs?

I have read horror stories on Medium about companies crashing because their code rotted.

Functions were thrown together. Variable names were randomly assigned. Structure was ignored. Until… it was to late.

Another time I worked on a jQuery project with more than 4,000 lines of code that removed and added CSS classes to an interactive web page.

I called it cowboy code — written by a rookie that preferred frustration instead of simplicity.

So how do write the high quality code that would light up any senior developer’s face?

You could read what the experts have written.
