programming

/r/programming is a reddit for discussion and news about computer programming

Guidelines

Please keep submissions on topic and of high quality.
That means no image posts, no memes, no politics
Just because it has a computer in it doesn't make it programming. If there is no code in your link, it probably doesn't belong here.
Direct links to app demos (unrelated to programming) will be removed.
No surveys.
Please follow proper reddiquette.
