We're diving deep into the concept of technical debt. I'll explore what it is, where it comes from, and most importantly, how to manage it effectively. I'll discuss strategies for using technical debt as a tool without letting it become a burden, and how to balance the need for progress with the importance of maintaining a healthy codebase. Join me as I navigate the complexities of technical debt and keep projects on track.
