(Noun) A software developer whose primary motivation for programming is to afford a specific lifestyle rather than for the joy of coding, passion for the industry, or energy derived from the work. Often associated with digital nomads who work from various countries throughout the year.
(Slang) A programmer who prioritizes quick financial gain and the freedom to work remotely over maintaining best practices such as automatic testing, code quality, and team collaboration. Their focus on rapid feature launches often comes at the expense of long-term code sustainability.

Jake is a total lifestyle developer. He spends more time planning his next trip to Bali than ensuring his code is up to standard. Automated tests? Code quality? Team collaboration? Nah, as long as the money keeps rolling in, he's happy.

Get the Lifestyle developermug. Is how a person or persons define themselves when they enjoy or practice everything about a certain lifestyle, except the main reason said lifestyle is created for or based on.
I really enjoy the openness, sexy atmosphere and free vibes hanging around swingers, yet I/we just don't partake in having sex with others. I/we consider ourselves Lifestyle Adjacent
I love the restaurants, the excitement, the sound and everything high end casinos offer, I just don't gamble. I am Lifestyle Adjacent.
The formula one circuit is amazing, the luxury, the mystery, the display of raw power, I just don't care about the races.

Get the Lifestylemug. The way someone lives.
It's used as a verb. Can also just be used as a way to define each situation in life. It doesn't matter if something bad or something good happens, can be used either way.

Get the Fitty Lifestylemug. Different than alternative lifestyle (often used to describe being part of the LGBTQ+ community), alternate lifestyle describes a life outside the social norms. It may include making money by selling drugs, living as part of a gang, living on the streets by choice, choosing a job of stealing/robbery instead of a law abiding legal job. Living an alternate lifestyle is often a choice by someone (at first), where someone is choosing to live alternate to the lifestyle they are currently able to live. It is not someone living without a house due to job loss, or other unfortunate circumstances, it it a chosen lifetyle for whatever reason (looks/sounds cooler than what they are doing, friends are doing it, they are mad at parents and are choosing to live away instead of going home.).
Have you seen Joe?
Na, he's out selling and living un homed, he's trying an alternate lifestyle.
Ahh, yeah his parents are looking for him.
