Pair Programming

We encourage pair programming between all levels of experience at kohactive. Nobody is required to pair program for a certain amount of time, but it is a great tool to help solve complex problems quickly and more efficiently with an extra set of eyes.

When pair programming, one person should “drive” while the other “navigates.” The navigator will assist the driver with the code they should write and explain the reasoning behind any code that they might dictate

The driver should be implementing the code that the navigator recommends, while frequently pausing to ask questions about the code. When the pair programming session is over, both parties should have a deep understanding of the code that they have committed
