Rethinking software development: insights from 20+ years in the field

Join us for a special online edition of our DDD Hungary Meetup!

After 9 years of in-person gatherings, we’re hosting our very first online event and we’re excited to learn about deep reflections on software development from Alexander Thurow.
Alex is a freelance software developer, consultant, and speaker based in Überlingen, Germany. Alexander has over 20 years of experience in the software industry, working in roles ranging from developer to consultant, trainer, and lecturer. His main areas of interest include Clean Code, Refactoring, Technical Debt, and knowledge transfer.

In this talk, he will share insights from more than two decades in software development. Through observations, patterns, and reflections, he explores what it really takes to survive and thrive in this complex and ever-changing field.

If you ever wondered why software development still feels so hard even with all the experience, tools, and knowledge available?
This talk offers thought-provoking perspectives on why the struggle persists and why the real challenges might not be what we usually think.
