Mark Miller on Tool Development
Mark Miller talks about his experiences developing for Delphi, developing the motion control system for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles stage show, and his masterpiece, CodeRush. Mark is a big advocate of good design. He talks about plug-in architecture, another area of strong expertise, making the case for using plug-ins in everyday software. He also talks about Programmer Ergonomics- keeping fit in a sedentary job, his ideas about the future of software development interfaces, and other interesting topics.
Mark has been developing software since the early 1980s. He spent the 12 years preceeding 2004 coding developer tools, which are his -- figuring out how to make developers more efficient. He was awarded the "Spirit of Delphi" by Borland. He created CodeRush for Delphi in 1997, and it has won numerous reader's choice awards. He also created reAct, a component test program generator; and the CDK (Component Developer Kit) for Delphi. He created XL8, a translation software package, and created the motion control system for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles stage show. What can we say, he's a developer's developer.
