This month we'll be featuring a talk by a member of our community on tech debt.

Topic: A Practical Guide to Managing Front-End Tech Debt

Technical debt is a universal problem for all software developers working on growing products. As your product changes and grows, with each new feature and code edit, your tech debt also grows. How can you manage your resources to best help your product grow, meet business expectations and reduce your technical debt? This can seem like an impossible task, especially when you have limited resources and time. In this session, we will discuss how to make managing technical debt part of your product growth. We will look at some technical patterns like documentation and testing, as well as at some soft skills like cross-team communications to provide some guidelines on managing your front-end technical debt.
