Coding Is Like Cooking

A blog by Emily Bache

Hello.
I’m a bit nervous actually. I haven’t had a blog before. I’m hoping that it will turn into a place for me to write interesting articles about coding, which is an activity I enjoy. (I enjoy cooking too but I don’t expect I will be writing about that so much.)

I hope I might comment on stuff other people write on the web. I also hope my writing skills might improve by doing so. So we’ll see. I think someone wrote that the average blogger gives up after about 3 months so that might happen too. I am expecting a baby in about 8 weeks time so I may not even last that long. Anyway, my next post should be more interesting than this one.

Hi – I´m Emily!

I am an independent consultant with Bache Consulting and chair of the Samman Technical Coaching Society.  As a technical coach I work with software development organizations who want to get better at the technical practices needed to be agile, including Test-Driven Development, Refactoring and Incremental Design. I live in Gothenburg, Sweden, although I am originally from the UK. I’ve written two books: “Technical Agile Coaching with the Samman method” and  “The Coding Dojo Handbook”. I teach for both O’Reilly and  Pluralsight. I’m married to Geoff Bache, creator of TextTest. I am also on Mastodon as emilybache@sw-development-is.social.

If you’d like to know a bit more about me, my work, and the talks and workshops I offer, please visit my main website: EmilyBache.com. There, you’ll find information about my background, upcoming events, and the services I provide as a technical coach and consultant. It’s a good place to start if you’re curious about how I can support your team in improving coding skills and agile practices.
