Technical debt

Technical debt is a metaphorical concept in software development that describes the consequences of taking shortcuts or making suboptimal technical decisions during the development process. These shortcuts can lead to inefficiencies, defects, and increased maintenance costs in the future.

For example, if developers rush to meet a project deadline and skip writing proper documentation or neglect refactoring code for better maintainability, technical debt accumulates. Over time, this debt may require additional work to correct or repay.
