I “m not too shy when it comes to use analogies while writing about software. But this blog makes my writings look as if they “re written by a kindergarten boy. Comparing using code generators with vibrators is very fresh and original idea.
In the essence, the blog author is right ndash; people quickly become addicted to code generators and frameworks and can quickly forget how to write code when they are on their own. Recently we “ve demoed our code generator to a perspective client, and they “ve said, “We are very impressed with your code generator. Creating a CRUD rich Internet application in 5-10 minutes? Wow! But what if you guys are not around? We “ll get used to your code generator and what if something goes wrong? rdquo;
Isn “t it a vibrator situation? But this does not mean that you should not be using frameworks and generators. But use them smartly without forgetting about the hand job if you know what I mean. You can find my blog about new breed of framework coders over here . What a boring reading isn ‘t it?
