Book description
How do you turn an application riddled with technical debt into a scalable codebase that’s beautiful, clean, and productive? With this practical ebook, Harrison Harnisch and Katie Womersley of the Buffer social media management platform show you how to successfully rewrite and migrate your application using Atomic Design. In the process, you’ll discover how breaking your application into basic components makes a rewrite much more efficient.
Atomic Design, created by web designer and consultant Brad Frost, is a system for working with the fundamental building blocks—the atoms—of modern web interfaces. This guide provides hands-on instructions for stitching these simple components together to rewrite your application in a low-risk and nondisruptive way. While the ebook’s examples focus on migrating a frontend application, you can also use these techniques for mobile and backend applications.
