97 Things Every Programmer Should Know

Welcome to the home page for the 97 Things Every Programmer Should Know project, pearls of wisdom for programmers collected from leading practitioners. You can read through the Edited Contributions , browse Contributions in Progress , view the list of current Contributors , and also learn How to Become a Contributor . If you would simply like to comment on a contribution, please also read How to Become a Contributor as some of it applies to you.

There is no overarching narrative: The collection is intended simply to contain multiple and varied perspectives on what it is that contributors to the project feel programmers should know. This can be anything from code-focused advice to culture, from algorithm usage to agile thinking, from implementation know-how to professionalism, from style to substance, etc.

The deadline for having something considered for inclusion in the the book form of the project is 16th October 2009. Following that, 97 contributions will be picked from the Edited Contributions and published in O'Reilly's 97 Things series, which already includes 97 Things Every Software Architect Should Know (also see the 97 Things Every Software Architect Should Know homepage ) and 97 Things Every Project Manager Should Know . You can find out more about the series and the 97 Things Every Programmer Should Know project in this InfoQ article .

The 97 chosen for the book will be the ones considered not only to be the best individually, but also the ones that fit best together. Every contributor whose contribution goes into the book will be fully acknowledged in the book and will get a complementary copy of the book when it is published. The contributions for the site are being edited by Kevlin Henney , who will also be listed as the editor of the published book.
