The problem with a team of only junior developers: Anti-patterns proliferate


The problem with a team of only junior developers: Anti-patterns proliferate.

One dev does it the "hard" way, or the "wrong" way, and the others copy.

To be clear, juniors are great. But, a team of *only* juniors is not.

At least one senior dev is critical to ensure quality.
Example: I'm dealing with a codebase where no one on the team knew about array.find.

So instead, the code is littered with verbose forEach loops like this.
