you know it's easy to maintain when you want to add a feature or remove one, without having a headache or rewriting from scratch, when it's well commented. to make it maintainable : + make it modular, divide it into modules and make them independent as much as you can. + design your application before you start making it. + comment your code. + make it simple, don't complicate things when you don't have to. + use a software versioning control system to track the changes you make to your code (gitlab, github, svn....)

I want to add: Concentrate on writing readable code. Especially, find good, fitting, self-explanatory names for all your variables, functions, classes etc.
