Making Complex Software Simple
As of this writing, Tau Station is about half a million lines of code. Most of that is Perl, a language that is famously concise. Were it written in Java, for example, it would probably clock in at well over a million lines of code. When a codebase gets to this size, it can be very hard to maintain. This is how we manage that complexity.
Wishing you a good holiday!
It’s holiday season for many right now, including the Tau Station team.
