27: 30 Day Code Quality Challenge, and Elm Development - a podcast by Ben Orenstein and Derrick Reimer

Ben is entering the last week of The 30-Day Code Quality Challenge. He has enjoyed getting the challenges out each day and seeing participants engage with the content. In the future he is deciding whether to personalize the programming languages or to remain language agnostic. The next cohort of the Challenge will start January 3, 2018, and Ben’s looking forward to iterating and improving each cohort of the Challenge. He also discussed a connection he made with Discourse, and explores options for forum management in the future.

The team has just completed several product structure tests using a prototype, which was a greatly helpful experience to the developers.
