In 1968, Douglas McIlroy made the observation that “the software industry is not industrialised.” Today, 50 years (and many noble attempts) later, a mass-produced software components industry has yet to emerge. For us to achieve industrialisation, it must be possible for a developer to specialise, to earn a living selling their software ‘component.’ What prevents a developer from creating a business around a single component, from continually honing that component, and repeatedly selling that component? What does it take to unlock the viability of software specialisation for developers? And what should the world expect from a Software Industry that is industrialised?
