What is taught?

Clean Code Essentials

What defines clean code? How does it differ from bad code? And why does bad code emerge? The basics of clean code are the foundation for every successful software project.

Mindset

Writing unclean code is a bad habit. But just as habits form, it can become second nature to write clean code. Highlighting the advantages and relevance of clean coding will make it an intrinsic need for participants to consistently maintain and clean up their code.

Coding Skills

Theory is one thing, but how do I write clean code in real projects? Using before-and-after examples, it’s demonstrated how to clean up code, make it more readable and sustainable, and build (even old) projects in a more structured and efficient way.

Teamwork

Programming is a team sport! Only with intense code reviews, comprehensive developer guidelines, and a shared understanding of clean code can projects be sustainably improved.

No-Gos & Best Practices

What doesn’t belong in source code, and what are the alternatives? The most common mistakes in software development are identified, and it’s explained how to avoid them in the future.

Individual Consulting

During the workshop, there is ample time to address individual problems and questions of participants and put the knowledge into the real context of the team.

Your Trainer

Timo Körber

Timo Körber Web Engineering

Hello everyone! My name is Timo Körber, I have been working in web development for over 20 years, and I am a freelance web developer, technical consultant, startup coach, and clean coding trainer.

As a full-stack developer, developing clean and high-quality software has always been my top priority. I am a passionate clean coder and have been giving lectures and seminars on the topic of clean coding for many years. I also regularly publish YouTube videos teaching aspiring developers how to improve their code sustainably.

Why Clean Coding?

As a freelancer, I’ve gained deep insights into the workflows and source codes of many different companies in recent years. Whether it’s a corporation, SME, or startup, they all have one thing in common: the quality of the code directly correlates with factors like team productivity, employee satisfaction, personnel and project costs, security, technical sustainability, corporate risks, and more.

The software’s source code is the foundation of a successful project, product, and company. Neglecting its quality and maintenance results in unstable, buggy software, a subpar product, high maintenance costs, unmotivated developers, dissatisfied customers, and ultimately, a software project that needs to be rebuilt from scratch at high costs after only a few years.

In my Clean Coding Bootcamp, the workshop for efficient and sustainable web development, I teach your development team how to write clean and high-quality code, refactor old and slow code, and establish a stable and sustainable project.

Is this workshop right for your team?

Are you unsure whether the Clean Coding Bootcamp is suitable for your team?
Consider if you’ve ever thought about at least one of the following points.

  • Our team has never dealt with clean coding
  • We want to work more efficiently with our code and raise quality standards
  • We’re starting a new project and want to do everything right from the beginning
  • We have many newcomers in the team and want to bring them up-to-date on clean coding
  • Working with our code is tedious and not fun
  • We have many juniors in the team whose skills we want to improve
  • Our team lacks a solid understanding of clean coding
  • There is a general "as long as it works" mentality in the team
  • Everyone in the team does what they want, and there are no rules
  • Our team lacks a shared understanding of clean programming
  • The development of our projects takes too long and costs too much
  • The code of our team is inconsistent, hard to read, and often causes errors
  • Our projects are not progressing as fast as we expect

If at least one of the points mentioned above applies, the Clean Coding Bootcamp is perfectly suited for you and your team! Schedule an appointment for a non-binding and free initial consultation now!

FAQ

We don’t work with PHP.

No problem! Anyone proficient in the common programming languages for web development (PHP, Java, JavaScript, .NET, etc.) and familiar with object-oriented programming can participate in the workshop. While I use PHP for the code examples, they are easy to understand, so even a junior JavaScript developer won’t have any issues.

I’m a Head of Engineering or Team Lead. Do I need to participate?

I highly recommend it! The workshop covers topics that go beyond coding and need to be managed by the team lead, such as introducing coding conventions, defining code review rules, and documenting the software.

I’m just starting out with programming. Is this workshop for me?

Probably not. Some experience in project work, basic software development terminology, and foundational object-oriented programming (OOP) knowledge are required. You should ideally have at least 1-2 years of experience.

I’ve read "Clean Code" by Robert Martin. Does the workshop still make sense for me?

Absolutely! Only a few topics from Robert C. Martin’s books are touched upon. The workshop mostly focuses on topics that don’t originate from Uncle Bob’s material.

Can senior developers and experienced programmers still learn something?

Definitely!!! As an experienced developer, you may often be stuck in old processes and habits. You likely work on older “legacy” projects and have gotten used to unclean code and inefficient practices. These habits need to be broken to show experienced developers that there’s a better way.

Is Timo just a trainer or also a developer?

I’ve been developing web software for 20 years and have implemented countless web projects for a variety of companies during that time. So, I come from a practical background. :) To better share my knowledge, I completed trainer certification in 2020 and have been working as a software trainer since then. You can find more about my background on my website.

How long is the workshop scheduled for?

The onsite workshop is scheduled for a full working day (e.g., 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM), including a one-hour lunch break. Of course, I’m flexible with the exact timing. The online training can be tailored to specific needs.

A full day is too long for us. Can we book the workshop for half a day?

The content and exercises are designed for a full day. However, I offer alternatives to a full-day workshop. Just book a free appointment with me, and we can discuss the possibilities.

Can the workshop also be conducted remotely?

Yes, the workshop can also be booked as remote online training. Just send me a message or book a free appointment.

What are the requirements for hosting the workshop at our location?

I just need a seminar room with a projector or TV for the presentations. For the practical exercises, a few laptops should be available, depending on the team size.

How many participants is the workshop designed for?

It doesn’t really matter. The workshop can be adjusted to the team size. However, an ideal number would be between 4 and 10 participants.
