In the future of the process of building software, the ability to do more with less could become the norm, some developers say.
“The future of programming is less,” said David Heinemeier Hansson, the creator of the Ruby on Rails Web application framework and a developer at 37signals in Chicago. “Less configuration, less committees, less proprietary infrastructure. The rise of open source is causing this. Along with this transformation, we’ll see the open-source, dynamic languages start displacing their enterprisey counterparts.”
