EP 5 - Refactoring and Restructuring Code | Howtocodewell podcast

The technical language and the terminology that we use to explain how a system is built, how a system needs to be altered and how it can be improved is very important in programming. Often we mix up the meaning of restructuring and refactoring and this can lead to confusion.

In this live stream I am going to talk about the differences between refactoring and restructuring a program.
Some questions I will try and answer
- What does refactoring do?
- What is the purpose of refactoring code?
- Why is refactoring important?
- Is refactoring or restructuring limited to just application code or can a graphical frontend also be refactored and restructured?
