Developer Tea

The Best Tool vs. The Right Tool: Don't Forsake Personality When Picking Frameworks or Languages


Listen Later

In today's episode, I'll talk about choosing the best tool vs. choosing the right tool for a job. Stopping assumptions about faster being better or using a specific language for a specific project isn't easy.

We'll identify the difference between objective measures and subjective measures of a given language, and give you two challenges to help you evaluate your toolset.

If you have a particular question you'd like me to answer or you'd like to get more involved in the developer community check out our Slack channel: spec.fm/slack.

If you enjoyed this episode make sure you check out our network Spec.fm and if you're an iOS developer, be sure to check out our latest addition to the network: Little Bites of Cocoa and subscribe to keep up with Developer Tea and the rest of the spec.fm community.

I hope you enjoyed this episode of Developer Tea and until next time,

Enjoy your tea
