Scholarly Technology Group Software Development Guidelines
These documents are intended to serve as a guide to both new and current software development team members. This hopefully will facilitate the ramp-up of new team members, ensure consistency across the team and lead to the development of high-quality, maintainable software.
STG typically includes 2-3 graduate student programmers, each of which typically works with us for 1.5-2 years, so turn-over is a given. Thus, our software development processes need to be optimized for adding new team members and maintaining the contributions that they make while they’re here.
We intend to continually iterate, refine, and experiment with the various practices in this document. Thus, this will be a living document.
