Philosophy

Maybe one language is better than another for a specific use case; however, these principles are what Mahaam cares about regardless of language or framework, and they are common throughout:

• Does the app meet business and user needs.
• Is the app model well designed.
• Is the codebase readable.
• Is the codebase maintainable.
• Avoid overengineering (more in Java/C# codebases).
• Avoid spaghetti code (more in Javascript codebases).
