Armed to the Teeth

[Intro] Brace by your side, code’s about to ignite Patterns, smells, tools—get your skills airtight From Nystrom to Fowler, Smith shows the power Now it’s Finals Week—this your finest hour [Chorus] Write it clean, let your code talk real mean Readable, lovable, something others ain’t seen Patterns in your pocket, smells you intercept Refactor 'til perfection, always leave it prepped [Verse 1: Patterns – Nystrom] Nystrom’s the architect, patterns to dissect Observer snaps back when changes connect Flyweight’s light, trims the memory tight Singleton stands alone, keeps the code contrite MVC splits the logic, makes it panoramic Model’s pure data, view keeps it dynamic Actions pack moves, commands in the queue Sandbox the subclass, let creativity accrue Type Object flex, plant types come alive Write it once, use it thrice—reuse to thrive Data locality, keep it fast, don’t roam Patterns stitch the pieces, now this code feels home [Chorus] Write it clean, let your code talk real mean Readable, lovable, something others ain’t seen Patterns in your pocket, smells you intercept Refactor 'til perfection, always leave it prepped [Verse 2: Smells + Refactoring – Fowler] Fowler’s the doctor, smells in his sights Magic numbers lurking? He wipes out the blight Repetition’s lazy, long methods ain’t crazy Tight coupling too needy, prune it up, keep it breezy Extract that method, name it with finesse Inline what you don’t need, make the clutter less Separate the layers: gameplay's here, render there Introduce that object, make parameters fair Temp into query, loops smooth like butter When code smells dirty, clean the whole gutter Fowler taught us this: refactor to refine Code that flows easy, future-proof every line [Chorus] Write it clean, let your code talk real mean Readable, lovable, something others ain’t seen Patterns in your pocket, smells you intercept Refactor 'til perfection, always leave it prepped [Verse 3: Tools – Smith + Brace] Adam said “Check it, your tools ain’t a crutch” Pre-commit snaps, hooks that adjust Vite builds fast, TypeScript’s the cast Interfaces guard contracts that last Brace watched your back, answered on command Debugging through the night like a tireless stand GitHub staged commits, docs clean with Markdown Promises async, await like a boss now Copilot dropped lines, AI on your grind But tools can’t think—stay sharp in your mind Smith had us geared, automation aligned Now we’re armed to the teeth to handle any grind [Chorus] Write it clean, let your code talk real mean Readable, lovable, something others ain’t seen Patterns in your pocket, smells you intercept Refactor 'til perfection, always leave it prepped [Outro] Nystrom laid the plans, Fowler cleared the air Smith passed the torch while Brace was always there Now it’s over to you, Finals week’s at your door Keep your code singing clean and let your tech soar
