Boleros for coding

My playlist for writing code with a calm heart.

Some people code to electronic music. I code to boleros.

There’s something about that mix of guitar, requinto and voices that lament so elegantly that helps me focus. Maybe it’s that boleros are never in a hurry, and good code shouldn’t be either.

How I use it

  • For debugging: slow boleros. When something breaks, I need calm.
  • For designing: early music, no lyrics, so ideas have room.
  • For finishing a project: norteño, because it’s time to celebrate.

What music do you work to? Tell me on Instagram.
