Definition
Live to Code is a fundamental character or spirit that reflects a shared passion for coding found among developers across the world.
It’s about solving problems, not cutting corners. It’s about finishing what you started. It’s the reason you’re not the only one working until 2 a.m. It’s the common bonds and universal truths shared by developers, regardless of their platform. This is Live to Code.
Etymology
The term Live to Code took its inspiration from the Live to Ride, Ride to Live motto used by many in the biking fraternity, and was initially set up by Steve Loethen and Josh Holmes, a pair of developers/bikers who travelled across the US spreading the message of Code to Live, Live to Code.
During their travels the pair discussed, shared and spread what they thought were defining coding moments and seeded the footage on Channel 9, an online community site where anyone who is into code can discuss aspects of developing.
