Like if the main engineer creates lots of really useful hooks etc. is it stealing if you use them outside of work?

I’m talking about using the idea and not necessarily the entire code.

    If you are using the concepts and writing the code yourself, you’re fine. If you are copying/pasting code from work to your personal project, you’re commiting IP theft. I’d recommend never doing that. On the otherhand, if it is for a peraonal project that you will never give away or sell, no one will know. Id still recommend not doing it, but to each their own.
