Technical debt represents the unfinished work required to consider a job complete, often viewed as the cost of postponing necessary tasks. The Mikado Method offers a systematic approach to identifying and eliminating technical debt by surfacing dependencies within a codebase. Named after the game "pick-up sticks," the method involves carefully removing sticks from a pile without disturbing others, ultimately exposing the central issue, or "Mikado." This metaphor illustrates the process of untangling intertwined dependencies to resolve key problems. The book outlines a pragmatic and empirical approach to planning and executing significant technical improvements in existing software systems. With simple yet versatile rules, it guides readers through a step-by-step system for assessing technical debt, mapping dependencies, and safely approaching their main objective. A key outcome of this method is the Mikado Graph, a minimalistic and relevant roadmap that provides insight into the system's workings, serving as an effective information radiator. Through this process, readers gain a deeper understanding of their software architecture while systematically addressing technical challenges.

In business I often come across software development.
