Chapter 3 is about software craftsmanship. Software craftsmanship is a long term journey to mastery. It is a mindset where software developers chose to be responsible for their own careers. This means that they have to learn new tools in order to stay competitive. It is not test driven development, clean code, or specific technologies. This chapter also goes over the software craftsman manifesto which is not only working software, but well-crafted software. Not only responding to change but steadily adding value. Not only individuals and interactions but also a community of professionals. Not only customer collaboration, but also a productive partnership. These are all things that the software developer should strive for in order to achieve the title of software craftsman.
Chapter 4 is about the software craftsmanship attitude. It is important that we continue to learn and develop in our careers. Most of the time this means to not to rely on your employers to provide you with everything you need to succeed as a software craftsman, this may involve some separate studying. The chapter goes into detail explaining technology specific, conceptual, and behavioral and revolutionary categories for software developers. We should be constantly reading up on new things that we don’t know how to do, and making we stay up to date on the latest technologies. I think this chapter is very important to every software developer when it comes to self-growth. I believe this is a way that people should live their life, not just their careers.
