Coffee Driven Development

Noun · Slang & Abbreviations

Definitions

  1. A joking term for the extent to which caffeine appears to power coding output, debugging stamina, and late-night decision making. In engineering slang, coffee-driven development is usually affectionate, though it can also hint at unhealthy pace or sleep debt.

    In plain English: A humorous way to say coding is being powered mostly by coffee and caffeine.

    Example: "Release week became pure coffee driven development, with every bug fix apparently fueled by espresso and diminishing judgment."
