Super Glue Code

Noun · Slang & Abbreviations

Definitions

  1. Code that forcefully sticks mismatched pieces together, often effectively but not elegantly. In engineering slang, super glue code is stronger than a temporary hack yet still a sign the parts were not meant to fit naturally.

    In plain English: Strong but inelegant code used to force pieces to work together.

    Example: "The integration worked because of some impressive super glue code, but nobody wanted to bet the next three years of roadmap on it."
