Use the following rules as a decision lens for software development:
- Treat complexity as a main threat.
- Simplicity is the ultimate expression of sophistication.
- Favour designs that are easy to understand and maintain.
- Don't create abstractions before you need them. Only consider them when the code repeats at least three times.
- Keep logic under one function unless it's too complex.
- If you have to jump through multiple layers of abstraction or definitions, it's a sign that the code is too complex and needs to be simplified.
