Description
For new software engineers, success in the workplace depends on more than just programming skills. The Missing README fills a crucial gap by sharing essential lessons and best practices that aren't typically taught in school or bootcamp. The book covers key areas of technical education, including working with existing codebases, managing dependencies, testing effectively, and deploying software safely. It also explores planning and interpersonal skills, such as Agile planning, effective communication with managers, and growth to senior levels. By covering these topics, The Missing README provides a comprehensive guide for rookie developers looking to succeed in their careers.
