Can Developing Code Become Fun Again?

Which parts of your codebase are puzzling your developers? Where are they spending their time? Can you find it? Can you visualize it? Can you find a way to make developing code fun again?

Arty Starr, Founder of FlowInsight, joined the virtual meetup group GDG Cloud Southlake to explain the concepts of developer flow and possible solutions for keeping developers in a flow state. Arty demonstrated her FlowInsight tools and augmented reality tools that aid in the discovery of hotspots and tools to make developers more productive. More productive developers should create happier developers and more productive companies.

“Create a crisp, clean, and high-definition image featuring a captivating background filled with floating orbs in various sizes. The orbs should be in the colors Cornflower, Periwinkle, Violet and Lavendar. The overall composition should evoke a sense of enchantment and wonder. The image should be visually striking and showcase the vibrant hues of the orbs against the background. Please ensure the final image is of excellent quality and ready for high-resolution display.” with Craiyon.com

In the Developer Coefficient white paper from Stripe, you can read about estimates of $300 billion USD loss annually due to lowered developer productivity and that “‘bad code’ costs companies $85 billion USD” per year. How can augmented reality help developers improve their productivity and find that bad code? How can FlowInsight tools help developers? Check it out!
