Lab Introduction
Lab: Making the Collapsible Content Plugin Reusable – Part 3
Video Runtime: 07:43
In this lab, you will learn about how to make your code reusable. You’ll learn about what it is, why you want to change your mindset to build code in a reusable way, and then how to do it.
You are a professional web developer. It’s your career and/or business. You need to make money. Designing your code to be reusable is a strategy to reduce your time and thus costs over the entire lifecycle of the code itself. In other words, it makes you more profitable.
To get started, make sure that you have completed Part 1 and 2 of this series. Remember that this series is you and I building a custom plugin together. I’m sharing every single step and my years of experience to help you deeply learn about the process as well as methodologies and best practices.
Before you move on, we need to uptick the plugin’s version number from 1.0.0
to 1.2.0
from the last lab. Whoopsie, I forgot to have you do that. You’ll uptick and then push the changes to your git-powered repository.
Who needs copy/paste? Right. Writing code from scratch is fun!
