Refactoring is not a chore. It is an essential part of the development lifecycle.
"Clean code always looks like it was written by someone who cares." — Robert C. Martin
When to Refactor?
- The Rule of Three: If you do it three times, abstract it.
- Before Adding Features: Clean the kitchen before you cook.
- Code Reviews: The best time to fix structural issues is before they merge.
Keep your functions small, your components pure, and your tests green.
