1. ESLint Integration: Code Poets created a separate branch for integrating ESLint with a recommended set of rules tailored for JavaScript and HTML code. This process identified thousands of warnings and errors in the existing codebase.

1. Automated and Manual Code Fixes: The team utilized ESLint’s capabilities for automatic fixes and performed manual tests and corrections to ensure the application’s functionality remained intact.

1. Rule-by-Rule Code Correction: Each rule violation was addressed individually, facilitating a detailed review and decision-making process for the application of each principle. This approach also led to the creation of a document for collaborative analysis and input from the development team.

1. Pre-commit Hook Implementation: To maintain code quality, a pre-commit hook was added to ensure all new code submissions complied with the established ESLint rules.


Solution

- Over 20,000 lines of code were modified for better consistency.
- A unified, regimented frontend code style was achieved.
- Significant reduction in warnings and errors.
- Enhanced code structure for improved handling and readability.
- Prevention of problematic code additions during commits.


Results

The successful integration of ESLint into the L7 Informatics project is a testament to Code Poets' innovative and proactive approach. As creators at heart, our team recognized the value of uniform coding practices and spearheaded the implementation of ESLint. This strategic initiative has yielded long-term benefits: the codebase is now more coherent and aligned with best practices, enhancing both efficiency and clarity. This alignment not only simplifies current implementations but also streamlines future upgrades to the main front-end framework. Furthermore, early identification of potential issues has become more efficient, demonstrating our commitment to continual improvement and excellence in software development.


Ongoing Benefits

BACKGROUND
Please describe your company and your position there.
As Senior Director of Engineering at L7 Informatics, a fast-growing life sciences enterprise software company, I am responsible for providing the engineering and engineering support teams with everything they need to keep up a furious momentum, including additional staffing resources.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE
For what projects/services did your company hire Code Poets?
Planned expansion and maturity of our software suite required fast expansion of our team, and because we prefer to pepper our team with resources that have experience in our customers areas of operation (biotech, manufacturing, etc.) often finding ideal resources is a huge challenge.

What were your goals for this project?
This is very much a staff augmentation engagement rather than a 'project'. Our goals were to find talented resources that could work well with our US-based staff. We were open to a workable timezone delta even with its potential challenges and merits.

SOLUTION
How did you select Code Poets?
CodePoets and our CEO crossed paths in early 2020, and with our strong preference for resources with experience in our customers' areas of operation (biotech, life science, manufacturing, etc.). CodePoets' focus on tech and science sounded like a good fit, so we kept them in mind in case we had a need for staff augmentation. Mid-year we developed that need so we gave them a ring.

Describe the project in detail.
Again, this isn't a project but staff augmentation in support of a product suite and implementations with many wide scopes.

What was the team composition?
We started with a couple of very strong resources who hit the ground running and produced solid results quickly with minimal training. They have been stellar at taking assignments and parsing them, asking excellent questions, and producing excellent work. We've since expanded our team at CodePoets and expect to continue doing so.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
I would assert that the fact that we've continued to expand our team with CodePoets on a pretty regular cadence since starting with them is pretty good evidence of progress and success.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
Active communications and jira-centric workflow between L7 and the CodePoets resources can only be as effective as L7 enables, and the CodePoets resources have been very proactive in their communications and very understanding of our need for them to work relatively independently at times.

What did you find most impressive about this company?
CodePoets had and has found excellent and appropriate resources for us, all of whom have been talented, reliable, responsive, and nimble.

Are there any areas for improvement?
To date I have no complaints.

Code Poets Success Story in BioTech, HealthTech for Innovation Hub - A case study | 2024

As the collaboration between Code Poets and L7 Informatics evolved, the natural diversity in coding styles among the expanding team became evident. Each developer's unique approach, while a reflection of their individual expertise, started to introduce variations in the front-end code's consistency. During this phase of ongoing development and bug fixing, Code Poets identified an opportunity for further refinement. This led to the strategic decision to integrate ESLint, aiming to harmonize these diverse coding styles while respecting the individuality of each team member.


Background

The main challenge was the varying personal coding styles among the growing number of developers, which led to inconsistent code in numerous components. This inconsistency was not just a matter of aesthetics but also affected the efficiency and clarity of the codebase.
