Prioritize Code Quality: Set minimum quality standards, such as code reviews and unit tests, even under time pressure. Break Tasks into Smaller Chunks: Ensure incremental development so that code remains manageable and reviewable. Refactor Regularly: Allocate short sprints for refactoring to avoid accumulating bad code practices. Document Decisions: Maintain clear documentation on quick fixes or compromises for future improvements.

Para evitar a dívida técnica em prazos apertados, aplique a estratégia do MVP (Produto Mínimo Viável) utilizando a técnica MoSCoW. Classifique as funcionalidades priorizando o que deve ser incluído na entrega inicial: os Must Have (Deve Ter) s?o essenciais, como a autentica??o de usuários e o fluxo principal de compra. Os Should Have (Deveria Ter) s?o importantes, mas podem ser ajustados depois, como a integra??o com sistemas de pagamento diferentes ou otimiza??es de desempenho. Os Could Have (Poderia Ter) s?o desejáveis, como recomenda??es de produtos ou filtros avan?ados, enquanto os Won’t Have (N?o Terá) s?o funcionalidades que podem ser deixadas para uma vers?o futura, como um painel de administra??o avan?ado.

To avoid technical debt without sacrificing speed when deadlines are looming, I implement the following strategies: Prioritize code reviews: Conduct quick yet thorough code reviews to ensure quality while allowing for fast feedback. ?? Use modular design: Break down features into smaller, manageable components to facilitate faster development and easier maintenance. ??? Implement coding standards: Adhere to established coding standards to promote consistency and reduce the likelihood of introducing technical debt. ?? Automate testing: Utilize automated testing to quickly identify issues and ensure that new code integrates smoothly without compromising quality. ??

When there is a constant demand for work, expectations with speedy delivery,tight deadlines along with technical debt activity; it is quite possible that the team may get burnt out or stressed out or short of bandwidth. But we can handle the situation to make things better - 1. Ask the client to create a dedicated feature for tech debt clean up and seek capacity in the team to work on it during idle time or one can utilise their capacity to work on tech debt activity when defect density is lower . 2. Last resort scaling up the resources, ask management for a head count increment so as to manage the demand-supply.

Focus on writing clean, maintainable code for the most critical parts of the system. Apply coding standards and best practices to key functionalities that are most likely to need extension or modification later.Decide what constitutes an acceptable level of quality for the current stage of the project. This should balance speed with necessary refactoring, testing, and documentation, especially for high-risk areas.Structure your code with modularity in mind, even if not fully optimized. Writing decoupled, modular code helps to reduce the impact of changes later on, allowing for easier refactoring.
