The Redis Manifesto

  • 'Code is like a poem'. 'We optimise for joy'.

    Too often software development is veiled in acronyms and jargon. It is great to see a lot of humanity in this manifesto. Software development becomes a huge part of a benevolent dictators life. The simple aspiration of saying 'I want to enjoy this' is a refreshing thing to see.

  • Brilliant. I wish more developers would adopt to these principles.

    I recently discovered redis while looking for a website statistics option. I was impressed how easy and well designed redis is. Starting with building it, over using it to sample the data, to querying the data for the charts.

    I was so impressed, that we will add Redis to our hosting offerings for Node.js apps.

  • Just FYI, it was written almost a year ago.
