During the technical course I took, I often heard my programming teachers (C# and JAVA) speak about the importance of developing easy-to-maintain code, but what in itself determines that a source code is or will be easy to maintain?

At the moment I am developing a code in a certain way extensive and that may in the future be maintained by other developers, for this reason arose this concern/doubt

    Only experience makes the person able to do something easy to maintain. There is no way. There may be some techniques, but when applying them is more important than them and it takes time to learn, you have to do a lot, work with those who already do well (if you don’t have this support, the internet is there to help in specific points)but doesn’t have an easy cake recipe.

  • Okay, thanks for the feedback. This is my first question considered duplicate, I need to remove her @bigown?

  • No, it can be useful for other people to reach her and then go to the question where it has relevant answer.

  • Okay, thanks for your help :)

Some factors, such as:

  • readability
  • clear and objective comment
  • outspoken
  • among others

There are several development methodologies that aim to facilitate maintenance and deliver other advantages, go from the taste of each following a methodology, or adapting an existing one to their own, or following the existing methodology in their workplace.

If you research "software development methodology" you will find several articles explaining each.
