• What is Technical Debt
• How to reduce or minimize it
• How does it affect Future Development
• Having a new mindset
• Getting AI, Automation and other tools to help

FileMaker enables rapid development and modifications, a quality that serves as both a blessing and a potential pitfall. In the early stages of a project, this ability to progress swiftly is invaluable. However, as solutions mature and persist over the years, the need for diligent maintenance and adaptation to evolving business workflows becomes critical. Without this, solutions can accumulate technical debt, becoming cumbersome and less adaptable to new requirements.

Managing code effectively involves continuous evaluation and simplification, ensuring it can rapidly adapt to changing business needs. We’ll explore how automation, best practices, and the promise of AI in the future can help reduce technical debt, and preserve the original investment in the solution.

Join me to understand the concept of technical debt, its impact on your projects, and strategies to mitigate its effects. Discover how maintaining a low technical debt enhances your team’s agility and helps adapt quickly to business changes, and safeguarding your investments in FileMaker solutions.

I did not get to attend this great session, but I did see it at DIGFM: https://youtu.be/q_2QMcPf7qM Not only was it a practical session about technical debt for developers, but if you subscribe and watch it at DIGFM, you can get a free copy of Inspector Pro 9. 😉
