// ✅ Descriptive names const currentDate = new Date(); const currentUser = getCurrentUser(); const activeUsers = users.filter(user => user.status === 'active');

// ❌ Hungarian notation (outdated) const strName = 'John'; const arrItems = []; const bIsActive = true;

// ✅ Let the type system handle types const name = 'John'; const items: Item[] = []; const isActive = true;


### Functions

```typescript
// ❌ Does too much
function processUserData(userId: string) {
  const user = db.findUser(userId);
  const orders = db.findOrders(userId);
  const total = orders.reduce((sum, o) => sum + o.amount, 0);
  sendEmail(user.email, `Your total: ${total}`);
  updateAnalytics(userId, total);
  return { user, orders, total };
}

// ✅ Single responsibility
function getUser(userId: string): User {
  return db.findUser(userId);
}

function getUserOrders(userId: string): Order[] {
  return db.findOrders(userId);
}

function calculateTotal(orders: Order[]): number {
  return orders.reduce((sum, o) => sum + o.amount, 0);
}

function sendOrderSummary(user: User, total: number): void {
  sendEmail(user.email, `Your total: ${total}`);
}

// ❌ Too many parameters
function createUser(name, email, age, role, department, manager, startDate) {}

// ✅ Use object parameter
interface CreateUserParams {
  name: string;
  email: string;
  age?: number;
  role: Role;
  department: string;
  managerId?: string;
  startDate: Date;
}

function createUser(params: CreateUserParams): User {}

Comments

// ❌ Redundant comment
// Increment counter by 1
counter++;

// ❌ Outdated comment (code changed, comment didn't)
// Returns the user's full name
function getUserEmail(user: User) {
  return user.email;
}

// ✅ Explains WHY, not WHAT
// Use binary search because the list is sorted and can have 100k+ items
const index = binarySearch(sortedItems, target);

// ✅ Warns about non-obvious behavior
// IMPORTANT: This function mutates the input array for performance reasons
function quickSort(arr: number[]): number[] {
  // ...
}

// ✅ TODO with context
// TODO(john): Remove after migration completes - tracking in JIRA-1234
const legacyAdapter = new LegacyAdapter();

SOLID Principles

Single Responsibility Principle

// ❌ Multiple responsibilities
class UserManager {
  createUser(data: UserData) { /* DB logic */ }
  validateEmail(email: string) { /* Validation logic */ }
  sendWelcomeEmail(user: User) { /* Email logic */ }
  generateReport(users: User[]) { /* Report logic */ }
}

// ✅ Single responsibility each
class UserRepository {
  create(data: UserData): User { /* DB logic */ }
  findById(id: string): User | null { /* DB logic */ }
}

class UserValidator {
  validateEmail(email: string): boolean { /* Validation */ }
  validatePassword(password: string): ValidationResult { /* Validation */ }
}

class EmailService {
  sendWelcomeEmail(user: User): void { /* Email logic */ }
}

class UserReportGenerator {
  generate(users: User[]): Report { /* Report logic */ }
}

Open/Closed Principle

// ❌ Must modify to add new payment methods
class PaymentProcessor {
  process(payment: Payment) {
    if (payment.type === 'credit') {
      // Credit card logic
    } else if (payment.type === 'paypal') {
      // PayPal logic
    } else if (payment.type === 'crypto') {
      // Crypto logic - had to modify existing code!
    }
  }
}

// ✅ Open for extension, closed for modification
interface PaymentMethod {
  process(amount: number): Promise<PaymentResult>;
}

class CreditCardPayment implements PaymentMethod {
  async process(amount: number): Promise<PaymentResult> { /* ... */ }
}

class PayPalPayment implements PaymentMethod {
  async process(amount: number): Promise<PaymentResult> { /* ... */ }
}

// New payment method - no modification to existing code
class CryptoPayment implements PaymentMethod {
  async process(amount: number): Promise<PaymentResult> { /* ... */ }
}

class PaymentProcessor {
  constructor(private method: PaymentMethod) {}

  async process(amount: number): Promise<PaymentResult> {
    return this.method.process(amount);
  }
}

Liskov Substitution Principle

// ❌ Violates LSP - Square breaks Rectangle contract
class Rectangle {
  constructor(public width: number, public height: number) {}

  setWidth(w: number) { this.width = w; }
  setHeight(h: number) { this.height = h; }
  getArea() { return this.width * this.height; }
}

class Square extends Rectangle {
  setWidth(w: number) {
    this.width = w;
    this.height = w; // Unexpected side effect!
  }
  setHeight(h: number) {
    this.width = h;
    this.height = h; // Unexpected side effect!
  }
}

// ✅ Proper abstraction
interface Shape {
  getArea(): number;
}

class Rectangle implements Shape {
  constructor(private width: number, private height: number) {}
  getArea() { return this.width * this.height; }
}

class Square implements Shape {
  constructor(private side: number) {}
  getArea() { return this.side * this.side; }
}

Interface Segregation Principle

// ❌ Fat interface
interface Worker {
  work(): void;
  eat(): void;
  sleep(): void;
  attendMeeting(): void;
  writeReport(): void;
}

// Robot can't eat or sleep!
class Robot implements Worker {
  work() { /* ... */ }
  eat() { throw new Error('Robots do not eat'); }  // Forced to implement
  sleep() { throw new Error('Robots do not sleep'); }
  // ...
}

// ✅ Segregated interfaces
interface Workable {
  work(): void;
}

interface Eatable {
  eat(): void;
}

interface Sleepable {
  sleep(): void;
}

class Human implements Workable, Eatable, Sleepable {
  work() { /* ... */ }
  eat() { /* ... */ }
  sleep() { /* ... */ }
}

class Robot implements Workable {
  work() { /* ... */ }
}

Dependency Inversion Principle

// ❌ High-level depends on low-level
class OrderService {
  private db = new MySQLDatabase();  // Concrete dependency
  private mailer = new SendGridMailer();  // Concrete dependency

  createOrder(data: OrderData) {
    const order = this.db.insert('orders', data);
    this.mailer.send(data.email, 'Order confirmed');
    return order;
  }
}

// ✅ Depend on abstractions
interface Database {
  insert(table: string, data: unknown): unknown;
  find(table: string, query: unknown): unknown[];
}

interface Mailer {
  send(to: string, message: string): void;
}

class OrderService {
  constructor(
    private db: Database,
    private mailer: Mailer
  ) {}

  createOrder(data: OrderData) {
    const order = this.db.insert('orders', data);
    this.mailer.send(data.email, 'Order confirmed');
    return order;
  }
}

// Now we can inject any implementation
const service = new OrderService(
  new PostgresDatabase(),
  new SESMailer()
);

Giving Feedback

# Good Review Comments

## ✅ Specific and actionable
"This loop has O(n²) complexity. Consider using a Map for O(n) lookup."

## ✅ Explain the why
"Let's extract this to a separate function - it makes the logic easier
to test and the main function more readable."

## ✅ Offer alternatives
"Instead of mutating the array, consider using `filter()` which returns
a new array: `const active = items.filter(i => i.active)`"

## ✅ Distinguish severity
- "nit: " - Minor style issue, optional
- "suggestion: " - Good to have, not blocking
- "blocking: " - Must fix before merge

# Avoid

## ❌ Vague criticism
"This code is confusing"

## ❌ Personal attacks
"You always make this mistake"

## ❌ No explanation
"Use a different approach"

Code Metrics

Cyclomatic Complexity

// High complexity (10+) - hard to test and maintain
function processOrder(order: Order): Result {
  if (order.status === 'pending') {           // +1
    if (order.paymentMethod === 'card') {     // +1
      if (order.amount > 1000) {              // +1
        // ...
      } else if (order.amount > 100) {        // +1
        // ...
      } else {
        // ...
      }
    } else if (order.paymentMethod === 'cash') {  // +1
      // ...
    }
  } else if (order.status === 'processing') {  // +1
    // ...
  }
  // ... more branches
}

// Lower complexity - extract conditions
function processOrder(order: Order): Result {
  const processor = getProcessor(order.paymentMethod);
  const tier = getPricingTier(order.amount);
  return processor.process(order, tier);
}

Metrics to Track

Metric	Target	Why
Cyclomatic Complexity	< 10 per function	Testability
Function Length	< 50 lines	Readability

Linting & Formatting

ESLint Configuration

// .eslintrc.js
module.exports = {
  extends: [
    'eslint:recommended',
    'plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended',
  ],
  rules: {
    // Prevent bugs
    'no-unused-vars': 'error',
    '@typescript-eslint/no-floating-promises': 'error',
    '@typescript-eslint/no-misused-promises': 'error',

    // Code quality
    'complexity': ['warn', 10],
    'max-lines-per-function': ['warn', 50],
    'max-depth': ['warn', 3],

    // Consistency
    'prefer-const': 'error',
    'no-var': 'error',
  }
};

Pre-commit Hooks

// package.json
{
  "husky": {
    "hooks": {
      "pre-commit": "lint-staged"
    }
  },

Sharp Edges（常見陷阱）

這些是程式碼品質中最常見且代價最高的錯誤

SE-1: 過度工程 (Over-engineering)

嚴重度: high
情境: 為了「未來可能需要」而增加不必要的抽象和複雜度
原因: YAGNI 原則被忽視、設計模式濫用、「萬一以後要...」的心態
症狀:
- 簡單功能需要改動 10+ 個檔案
- 新人看不懂架構
- 程式碼比需求複雜 10 倍
檢測: Factory.*Factory|Abstract.*Abstract|interface.*\{.*\}(?=.*interface.*\{.*\})|Strategy.*Strategy
解法: YAGNI（You Aren't Gonna Need It）、先寫最簡單的實作、需要時再重構

SE-2: 命名不一致

嚴重度: medium
情境: 同一個概念在不同地方用不同名稱，或不同概念用相似名稱
原因: 沒有統一術語、多人開發沒有對齊、複製貼上沒改名
症狀:
- user, customer, client, account 指同一件事
- 搜尋不到相關程式碼
- 新人經常問「這個和那個有什麼差別？」
檢測: (user|customer|client|account).*=.*find|(get|fetch|retrieve|load).*User
解法: 建立術語表（Ubiquitous Language）、Code Review 時檢查命名、重構統一命名

SE-3: 深層巢狀 (Deep Nesting)

嚴重度: medium
情境: if-else 或 callback 巢狀超過 3-4 層，難以閱讀
原因: 沒有提早 return、沒有抽取函數、callback hell
症狀:
- 需要橫向捲動才能看到程式碼
- 很難追蹤哪個 } 對應哪個 {
- Cyclomatic complexity 超高
檢測: \{.*\{.*\{.*\{|if.*if.*if.*if|\.then\(.*\.then\(.*\.then\(
解法: Guard clause（提早 return）、抽取函數、使用 async/await 取代 callback

SE-4: 神奇數字/字串 (Magic Numbers)

嚴重度: medium
情境: 程式碼中直接使用意義不明的數字或字串
原因: 懶得定義常數、「只用一次不用抽出來」
症狀:
- 看到 86400 不知道是什麼（一天的秒數）
- 修改時需要全域搜尋 replace
- 同一個數字在不同地方意義不同但值相同
檢測: \b(86400|3600|1000|60000|1024|65535)\b|status\s*===?\s*['"][^'"]+['"]
解法: 抽取為有意義名稱的常數、使用 enum、集中管理設定值

SE-5: 大泥球 (Big Ball of Mud)

嚴重度: critical
情境: 程式碼沒有明確架構，所有東西混在一起，到處都有依賴
原因: 沒有模組化設計、趕時間「先 work 再說」、缺乏重構
症狀:
- 改 A 會壞 B
- 單一檔案 1000+ 行
- 所有東西都 import 所有東西
檢測: import.*from.*\.\.\/\.\.\/\.\.\/|require\(.*\.\..*\.\..*\.\.\)|lines.*>\s*1000
解法: 分層架構、明確的模組邊界、定期重構、嚴格的 import 規則

Validations

V-1: 禁止 console.log (生產代碼)

類型: regex
嚴重度: medium
模式: console\.(log|debug|info)\(
訊息: console.log should not be in production code
修復建議: Use a proper logger (winston, pino) or remove debug statements
適用: *.ts, *.js

V-2: 禁止 any 類型

類型: ast
嚴重度: high
模式: TSAnyKeyword
訊息: 'any' type defeats TypeScript's type safety
修復建議: Use specific type, 'unknown', or generic type parameter
適用: *.ts, *.tsx

V-3: 函數參數過多

類型: regex
嚴重度: medium
模式: function\s+\w+\s*\([^)]*,\s*[^)]*,\s*[^)]*,\s*[^)]*,\s*[^)]*\)|=>\s*\([^)]*,\s*[^)]*,\s*[^)]*,\s*[^)]*,\s*[^)]*\)
訊息: Function has more than 4 parameters - consider using an object
修復建議: Replace multiple params with single options object: function(options: Options)
適用: *.ts, *.js

V-4: TODO 無追蹤

類型: regex
嚴重度: low
模式: //\s*TODO(?!.*#\d|.*JIRA|.*\w+-\d+)
訊息: TODO comment without tracking reference
修復建議: Add issue reference: // TODO(#123): description or create ticket
適用: *.ts, *.js, *.tsx, *.jsx

V-5: 深層 import 路徑

類型: regex
嚴重度: medium
模式: import.*from\s+['"]\.\.\/\.\.\/\.\.\/|require\s*\(\s*['"]\.\.\/\.\.\/\.\.\/
訊息: Deep relative imports indicate poor module boundaries
修復建議: Use path aliases: import { X } from '@/modules/x'
適用: *.ts, *.js, *.tsx, *.jsx
