Modern software is too large, too fragile, and too dependent on layers its own authors no longer understand.

+

We reject this.

+

We believe software should be:

+ +
    +

  • Small enough to understand.

    • +

  • Simple enough to modify.

    • +

  • Clear enough to trust.

    • +

  • Stable enough to last.

    • +

  • Portable enough to survive platforms.

    • +

  • Useful before it is fashionable.

    • +
+ +

Complexity is not sophistication.

+

Abstraction is not always progress.

+

Dependencies are not free.

+

More code is not more value.

+ +

A good program does one thing directly and predictably.

+

Its source code is part of its interface.

+

Its behavior should be explainable without mythology.

+

Its build system should not be larger than the program.

+

Its failure modes should be obvious.

+ +

We prefer:

+ +
    +

  • Plain text over opaque formats.

    • +

  • Source code over generated machinery.

    • +

  • Explicit behavior over hidden magic.

    • +

  • Small tools over monolithic systems.

    • +

  • Correctness over convenience.

    • +

  • Maintenance over novelty.
