Ask HN: Which developers should I follow?
I had a great mentor that recently left. I learned immensely from reviewing their code and having them review my changes. Their reviews dramatically changed how I structure interfaces and code.
To keep learning more, I would like to read other developer's code. Which codebases should I follow to see how other people write clean and clear code?
- fabianhjr 5y agoI would read the standard lib of whatever language you are using. It normally has most of the common patterns and best practices of each language.
- speedgoose 5y agoBut never ever look at the standard library source code for C or C++ unless you want nightmares !

- cpach 5y agoWhat languages are you interested in? C, Clojure, Kotlin, Javascript, Python, Racket, Crystal, Java, something else?
- jpollock 5y agoAny options you have, there will be someone around interested. Personally, I will find value in all of them!
