Is Software Development Analytical Or Art?

A lot of people tend to ask me "John, why do you think that software development is art?".

I do think software development is art. While this might seem controversial, let me explain my point. First of all, we need to understand how hybrid things are nowadays. It's difficult to find something 100% pure in 2016. Things mix up with other things and they get a whole new meaning when that stuff happens. Said that, I do think that Software Development is analytical. And a lot.

However, if you think of software development just as something analytical, you'll probably be left behind by the ones who understand that software development is also an art.

When you start to see programming as an art, you'll understand that you have the power to build anything. You, as a developer, has the ability to build an entire universe, just by writing code. And this is where the art comes in.
