How To Structure Your Programming Projects

[@Speykious]

The first and most important step to be an efficient programmer is to have a sleep schedule.

[@tyengineer0]

Facts 🙌🏼💯

[@bhumika1060]

Not sure bout that :×

[@Speykious]

@@bhumika1060 You should, it's a serious thing. It's bad for your health, your brain and especially your ability to focus and solve problems if you don't sleep enough.

[@andrewkariuki]

Never seen something so true

[@-XArchLinuxEnjoyerX-]

PROPAGANDA!!! THE MORE TIMES YOU HAVE TO READ A FUNCTION TO UNDERSTAND WHAT IT DOES, THE MORE L337 OF A PROGRAMMER YOU ARE!

[@JusticeNDOU]

if you use a combination of pycharm and github actions you can configure your projects such that your TODO comments in your code ends up in your Issues, this is super helpful especially on a very large project

[@edhead76]

this has been such a struggle for me. thank you for the honest and straightforward approach at tackling code. Your naming convention section of the video parallels recommendations from a book i'm actively reading, "Clean Code." awesome video. i've subscribed and liked!

[@Caliber632]

"You should use standing desks!, Ergonomic chairs!, here's a great company where you can get all that stuff from!" "Sits on the sofa, lies on the bed, laptop always on... his lap...." Me too Kalle, me too.

[@Gigusx]

Since a part of it is not about structuring a project but also being more productive in general, I'd also add learning and using basic terminal commands to the list. It's way faster, especially in new projects, to create all the files and folders using a CLI. Small thing but definitely adds to the comfort.

[@1anre]

This was one useful video, little things like this have a huge impact on your general developer productivity, & no matter how many languages you are proficient in, if you’re not meticulously organized, you might lose your mind when something breaks during your development process & you don’t know if it’s the actual code base or how you’ve structured the files & code to work that’s causing it.

[@MogelBoom]

I know it's an old video but i just want to point out that structuring your code in directories based on the technology-layer might not be the best idea because you are forced to create dependencies from package to package. It's a way cleaner architecture to structure your code based on topic (german word "Fachbereich") improves the cohesion in these packages

[@atlantic_love]

No one should ever consider a video that's a year old to be an "old video". Accountability, people!

[@andiuptown1711]

So package by feature not by layer?

[@lilalomoslama]

Nice Video, BUT: Please don’t refactor code just to make it more readable or efficient. Ensure that your Feature branch will only be merged when you are satisfied with the readability and efficiency of the changes. The reason ist quite simple: Refactoring comes with the cost of either removing important code (that you might forgot it was ever important) or introducing new bugs. You will be stuck fixing your refactorings. Only touch your code if you have to and keep your PRs small. This will improve your readability more than refactoring once a week.

[@charonder]

I'm a couple years into my PhD and this is going to be a massive help for my next project. Thank you!

[@ZubairMohammadRayhan]

what si your phd research about

[@DoctorCode9]

Finally someone spoke about the subject, this is one of the most important video for a programmer

[@engageintellect]

Kalle hits another one out of the park. Providing the information people need in a friendly and straightforward way. Thanks for the awesome content.

[@adpadillar]

I manage all of my GitHub workflow in the Source Control Feature of Vscode and i feel 1000 times more productive. I also set up verified commits as an added bonus

[@oskarthaeter63]

Regarding the MVC pattern: I find it best to choose a design pattern when modeling the project as a class diagram. If I am unsure about what design pattern to use or just don’t want to be constraint by one, I find it best to decompose the project into subsystems and create folders for each. This helps achieve low coupling and high cohesion, which is useful for when one does not need to change something in every file just because one object was restructured. A class diagram and a short list of functional and non-functional requirements goes a long way, helping to keep focused on what you want to do with your project.

[@GraphicGamingHQ]

Great comment, do you have some examples of these class diagrams? Maybe one you've recently made yourself? My biggest struggle is planning/designing data structures/project logic/structures and I'd love to find a good system that works for me to being able to tackle getting better at it!

[@oskarthaeter63]

@@GraphicGamingHQ well, I can recommend the book “Object-Oriented Software Engineering: Using UML, Patterns and Java” by Bernd Bruegge and Allen H. Dutoit. The chapters Modeling with UML, Analysis and System Design should be quite interesting! The class diagram should just be an overview of all your most important components and how they work together (i.e. class hierarchy, interfaces, aggregations etc). It can be detailed, but doesn’t have to be. In the end just go with your gut ;)

[@edgarmuradyan6881]

I just got my first real project and it is large enough. I didn't know how to structure that, opened KZbin and this video!😂👌

[@sapperjaeger]

possibly the most useful vid I've seen on workflow! well done!

[@riclerico]

Kal sounds like a pro pro pro 👨‍💻. Clear and concise in his videos. #fanfromfromghana

[@mohammedsaad3801]

Happy that i am here from when u had 50k u have come a long way gl for the future

[@codingisamazing]

In the backend, the View component in the MVC architecture does not necessarily refer to a graphical user interface (UI) as it does in frontend development. Instead, the View in the backend can be thought of as the representation of the data that is sent back to the client or consumer of the backend services. In a backend application, the View component is responsible for formatting and presenting the data in a suitable format for the client. This can be in the form of JSON, XML, or any other data format that the client expects. The View component does not handle user interactions or have a graphical interface like in frontend development.

[@andrean40]

Thanks for this

[@FlutterMapp]

The Lifting table is a must for sure! Thanks for the video man ✌️

[@ThaitopYT]

I need to be more seriously about the readme file and to-do list.

[@TheSharkbeast]

Okay by the title I really didn't thought it'll be that useful but mann this is gold 🙌,

[@awsm1680]

Kalle be reading my mind and making videos on it to make my life easier

[@muhammadrasikh]

Kalle, i think you should use timestamps for your videos... It helps me a lot sometimes

[@theencryptedpartition4633]

When something kind of happens to me I usually say that I have a friend of mine and that happened to him. And I usually mistakenly say ‘them’😅

[@dhruvajindal4932]

Who wants dedicated video on MVC?

[@mnation694]

Kalle keep doing this great videos, I like the vlogs and productivity ones the most!

[@harshthosar8600]

Exactly the video I needed to see. Thanks Kalle.

[@KyrosNox]

This really helped me get my mind right regarding my work. Thanks much.

[@nihalrahman9503]

the first 2 minutes could be cut out. this is very useful information, love ur content. notification bell turned on.

[@TN-cx4qi]

Best practice dictates cramming as much code as you can into one file. That way you know where all the code is 🤓

[@gr8tbigtreehugger]

Was exactly in the opening scenario, even knowing that I should be doing exactly what this video prescribes, twas just bouncing around.

[@phillylifer]

Vim??? Why. Except for this question. Brilliant advice!

[@ryannathanwilson]

I learned how to use VIM for editing individual files, but I’ve had a hell of a time figuring out how to use it officially for a larger code base. Any tips? New video?

[@gogatorsfoster1]

I'm also interested in seeing this

[@luisdario1493]

You need a plugin for file managment and configure your vimrc to open quickly

[@clinton5708]

I use vim(neovim) on two fairly large projects. For file management I use nnn and fzf.

[@exinr6930]

The main tip I've heard from my vim user friends is to use VS Code with the vim extension since it has all the power user shortcuts that make it so you don't have to leave the home row to do anything, but there's still a GUI if you need it. Maybe that can help a bit.

[@akshajgotimukul204]

Use VS code instead

[@prathampatel6357]

0:00 - 0:45 bro defined devs's nightmare too accurately 💀

[@paulfrischknecht3999]

Creating a model, view & controller submodule or directory will usually introduce bad cohesion, meaning things that change together will not be kept together.

[@peachesurf]

watching this video while procrastinating programming

[@U_Geek]

OK 40 seconds in and he just described my problem, shocking if you ignore maintainability your project won't last long

[@aymenbm1966]

In ly entire life i never heard any one says MVC PROTOCOL please dont say that its MVC ARCHITECTURE or MVC DESIGN PATTERN its not a PROTOCOL and i see many people in the comment have picked up the word. Great content any ways

[@MohamedAnsari_H]

my first comment Kalle, gotta give it to ya, the opening was hilarious. LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@specialjeffy333]

Another great video! Super helpful. Although I think my favourite part was Kalle explaining he was busy buying a tshirt so he couldnt help his friend lol

[@martiananomaly]

LOL true.

[@ishanchoudhary4179]

I got an ad of Kalle on tab nine. For a sec, I thout it was the beginning of the video 😂

[@willgonzy]

[@arianpiano]

Why is no one talking about the brilliant skit in the beginning

[@couple.gamernauts]

Awesome. Keep up the good work! Always a pleasure to watch a video of yours.

[@blazi_0]

Fuck didn't expect I'll be here after 8 months of coding the project

[@farsinkp169]

The production quality 👌❤️

[@darrenmew3928]

If you use Django and python it will automatically set all this up, better yet if you wanted you could use their MVC style and copy it to your other projects

[@redsun5826]

extremely helpful video. thank you! saving it to a playlist to refer to again in the near future.

[@AbyssRein]

If you start off with github, would the github desktop app be a better fit? Like always create a repository through the github app instead of logging on your browser and running that stuff in the terminal?

[@alexisraels1437]

Didn't know about github project boards. I use Jira for work, but this will be really nice for personal projects. Thanks!

people saying src folders are redundant only use scripting languages. otherwise they would be aware that machines only run binaries.

This video is one-of-a-kind, great content! Do you have a video of how to navigate Git Hub? I have code saved on my computer but do not understand how to prepare my page in a way that would be helpful in future opportunities. Also, what is the best way to decide on the language and coding project? Do you have a guide on that? Since we have multiple options in where to go early in our career. Thank you.

You have to admit that you too were watching that plant on the bottom left corner :)

[@paulfrischknecht3999]

+1 for the suggestion to rewrite code fairly often; this is actually not that hard (compared with coming up with the ideas and code in the first place) and very helpful for refactoring, maintainability, readability etc. I wonder how to best convince product owners, management and the rest of the team of that...

[@zulucharlie5244]

Outstanding content.

[@taylorzeller3415]

I like the idea of the Every Other Day system, but, in my head, that conflicts with the idea of creating an MVP for a project before refactoring and starting UI/UX design. Am I thinking about this wrong?

[@itzthehxnry_]

3:35 how did you made that dynamic prompt? In vanilla settings there is only option to display full path. How do you display only current directory?

I'm not suure if the whole github reposit set up I did on my mac is working or not, how do I check? Thanks :)

[@mcferrill]

Have you tried the neovim integration for vscode? I'm a longtime VIM user, but directly importing my vimrc into vscode was too hard to resist.

[@mcferrill]

@@depression_isnt_real neovim is a fork of the original vim project, and the "VSCode Neovim" plugin lets you run neovim inside vscode along with your vim plugins/settings. With some work you can have a single vimrc & plugin folder that works in OG Vim, neovim, and VS Code. I have mine in a git repo with an installer script.
