I did a yearlong capstone project, but aside from that I never worked on the same codebase for more than 6-8 weeks as part of my coursework. And even the capstone project was small enough that 1-2 strong developers could’ve handled it themselves.

I remember being concerned about this as a student, and definitely wished I’d had some experience with it when I got my first job.
