Sample Code

If you make software that is used by developers, you probably include some kind of API for developers to extend your product. And you probably have some sample code.

If the above statement applies to you, here are some important things you should know about samples:

1) Public Sample code is indicative of the quality of your product.
2) Public sample code is indicative of the quality of your programmers.
3) Public sample code is not for interns or junior programmers.
4) Public sample code should lead your customer to making a great product.

Break these rules at your own risk.
