    Same. I’ve been on both ends though.

    Where my peer is either above or below my skill level.

    So low they can’t read it. So high thier shit would be 3x longer than mine…

      In a similar sense to another comment on here having a more junior person read your code can be quite valuable too. If they can’t understand it, it could be a risk and it might be worth thinking about ways to simplify it. Not that it’s always going to be possible but still helpful to know that it’s a maintainability risk.

        Yeah what I’ve done with a junior is basically read through the logic of my code to ensure I didn’t miss any steps.
