Software vs Manual Processes
Developers should understand software as a foundational concept to design, build, and maintain programs that solve real-world problems, such as creating web applications, automating processes, or analyzing data meets developers should learn about manual processes to understand baseline workflows before automating them, as it helps identify inefficiencies and requirements. Here's our take.

Software
Nice PickDevelopers should understand software as a foundational concept to design, build, and maintain programs that solve real-world problems, such as creating web applications, automating processes, or analyzing data
Pros
- +It is essential for anyone in technology to grasp how software interacts with hardware and users, as it underpins all development work, from coding to deployment and maintenance
- +Related to: software-development, programming-languages
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Manual Processes
Developers should learn about manual processes to understand baseline workflows before automating them, as it helps identify inefficiencies and requirements
Pros
- +This knowledge is crucial in legacy systems, small-scale projects, or when automation is impractical due to cost or complexity
- +Related to: automation, continuous-integration
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
These tools serve different purposes. Software is a concept while Manual Processes is a methodology. We picked Software based on overall popularity, but your choice depends on what you're building.
Based on overall popularity. Software is more widely used, but Manual Processes excels in its own space.
