Software Engineering at Google - Chapter 1 - What is Software Engineering

Our IT books club has started reading new book - about Software Engineering at Google - processes, culture, and tools that help Google create and maintain high-quality software. First chapter is about Software Engineering in general:

• What is Software Engineering vs Software Development/Programming?
• Three principles Google consider:
  • Time and Change
  • Scale and Growth
  • Trade-offs and Costs
• How these three principles are applied to Software Engineering and how it is different from Software Development/Programming

Interesting opening chapter of the book:

“Software Engineering at Google – Lessons Learned from Programming over Time” by Titus Winters, Tom Manshreck and Hyrum Wright
