Poorly written code is hard to understand, maintain, and test. But what separates poorly written code (aka code that smells) from beautiful code that talks? In this course, the expert instructor walks you through common code smells found in C# programs, and how to refactor them using ReSharper. Refactoring is changing the design of the existing code without changing its external behavior. This course is packed with techniques and is a must for any C# developer who wants to improve the quality of their code.
