How to Improve Programming Efficiency

Before exploring how to improve programming efficiency, we need to know the process of developing a software project.

  1. Requirement analysis
  2. System overall design and detailed design
  3. Source code implementation
  4. Testing and fixing bugs
  5. Deployment
  6. System iteration and improvement.

Next, I will cover how to improve efficiency at every stage of software development.

Requirement analysis

✅ Do not start working before clearly understanding the requirements. If there is anything unclear, ask immediately.

System overall design and detailed design

✅ Design principles and best practices. Examples of design in real application scenarios.

✅ Design document templates.

✅ Design tools. For example, draw UML diagrams.

📆 Implementing commonly used technical frameworks, middleware, libraries by yourself. To deeply understand the principles of technology.

🚀 Implement common systems by yourself. To know domain problems and solutions in common industries. For example

  • Management systems.
  • Shopping systems.
  • IM systems.
  • CRM systems.
  • Mini-Programs.

Source code implementation

✅ Writing blogs and source code examples. For example

  • Use of frameworks and code libraries
  • How to integrate a code library into the framework.
  • Solutions for errors.
  • Best practices.
  • Performance optimization.

✅ Using generative AI and AI code completion tools.

✅ Implementing common-use code libraries and functions by yourself. For example

  • commons-lang

✅ Implementing a code generator for your use.

Implementing common-use page layout, style and UI components.

Testing and fixing bugs

✅ Writing unit tests.

Deployment

✅ Using Docker and CI/CD.

System iteration and improvement

✅ Writing project documentation.

✅ Regularly upgrade the version of the code library in your project. If the version of code library in your project is very outdated, it may not be compatible with some new code libraries.

Others

✅ Implementing a data handler for your use.
