Ahhhhhhhhh!!!!

HOLY GAWD PEOPLE..

  • Don't write all your new code on the production machine!
  • Use a VCS!
  • Document your functions using DocBlocks!
  • Document your API (at least LIST the endpoints)... I have to decipher the meaning from your code, and that isn't really clear
  • Use a single identifier as the primary ID in the API for a resource (ie don't return a list of group ids for listing groups and then expect the group name as the identifying parameter for modifying a group)
  • Use a consistent model for representing the same data model in different endpoints!
  • Don't concatenate fields in the API results unless there is a good reason to (e.g first name and last name)
  • Don't expose the underlying database logic. This is leaky abstraction, especially when you do it inconsistently!!

My Heroku values

Make it real

Ideas are cheap. Make a prototype, sketch a CLI session, draw a wireframe. Discuss around concrete examples, not hand-waving abstractions. Don't say you did something, provide a URL that proves it.

Ship it

Nothing is real until it's being used by a real user. This doesn't mean you make a prototype in the morning and blog about it in the evening. It means you find one person you believe your product will help and try to get them to use it.

Do it with style
