Question 2 of 30

Walk me through your process for designing scalable applications.

"The process I use for designing scalable applications begins with minimizing the code I use. I focus on the application's functional and non-functional requirements and then create code that satisfies those. I break the application down into distinct processes and code each one sequentially. The final step is to test the application and debug it."
