Knowledge-Based Tech Debt

Knowledge-Based Tech Debt

Imagine two software engineers have worked on a new feature. They own all knowledge about this specific feature. However, other software engineers in your team don't have this knowledge. When they have to work on this feature or have to do an implementation that makes use of this feature, they won't have the knowledge required to correctly implement a new feature.

Therefore, it's essential that you actively share knowledge about features and important codebase changes.
