The most [relevant definition of complexity](https://www.lexico.com/en/definition/complex) for this blog post is: (adj) "Not easy to analyze or understand; complicated or intricate."

If you are purchasing software, it is important to prioritize simpler options; it will be cheaper in the long run. In this blog post, I will discuss identifying complexity, why it's bad, why simple is good, and how software engineers manage complexity.
