A recent report highlights that Java developers suffer from various productivity barriers, with insufficient documentation identified as the leading issue affecting 41% of developers. This lack of documentation leads to reduced efficiency during onboarding and troubleshooting. Poor communication between teams (cited by 38% of developers) also hampers productivity. Additional challenges include mismanaged timelines, long redeploy times, developer turnover, and insufficient tools. Experts stress that a substantial portion of developers' time is spent on non-coding tasks, impacting overall productivity significantly.
'About 40% of software developer time is toil not related to writing code - whether it's waiting for builds to complete, being on call to troubleshoot, and resolving security issues.'
'Insufficient documentation can lead to longer onboarding and increased time spent on maintenance due to a lack of understanding of previous decisions made during development.'
