Code Clinic

Noun · Slang & Abbreviations

Definitions

  1. An informal session where people bring code problems, design questions, or debugging issues for group diagnosis. In team slang, a code clinic can be a lightweight way to spread knowledge without turning everything into formal review process.

    In plain English: An informal session for diagnosing code problems and getting help.

    Example: "The staff engineer started a weekly code clinic so newer developers could bring messy test failures and get help before those issues turned into multi-day stalls."
