the code of senior developers is more readable , reusable and follow the general naming conversion and coding principle. 

while the junior developer code is not beautiful as senior do, the problem of structuring the code to the general conversion is seen in the code of junior developer

Junior: They start out with simple code because they don’t know any better. It takes them a fair amount of time to code things because they’re constantly looking up examples and rewriting.

Senior: Then they see how much work it is to maintain, how under-appreciated their work is, how often their work of art is thrown away, how often they miss deadlines, how quickly fad languages and frameworks come and go, and they settle down into a zen-like balance of good code quality and reasonable speed.
