Software Practices refer to the established habits, conventions, and standards that development teams follow to write high-quality, maintainable code, such as code reviews, version control discipline, testing, and coding style guides. These practices help reduce bugs, improve collaboration, and make codebases easier to scale and hand off between engineers. Adopting strong software practices is a key differentiator between amateur and professional engineering teams.
