Here on Hackaday, we’re generally designers of hacks that live in the real world. Nevertheless, I’m convinced that some of the most interesting feats are at the mercy of what’s possible in software, ...

Design patterns constitute a fundamental component in the architecture of software systems, providing standardised and reusable solutions to recurring design challenges. Originating from seminal works ...

Transforming an object-oriented model into the specifications required to create the system. Moving from object-oriented analysis to object-oriented design is accomplished by expanding the model into ...

as well. Although most object-oriented programming languages support the former, I have never encountered one that supported the latter. Nonetheless, it is possible to implement this pattern without ...

Object-Oriented Analysis and Design is a course that presents an introduction to the design and construction of software systems using techniques that view a system as a set of objects that work ...

When building applications, you often come across objects that are quite expensive to create. In some scenarios, the cost of creating new objects is high enough to impact application performance. Here ...

Some of the tools you use in building applications also apply as you build out your services. The Single Responsibility Principle (SRP), for example, makes as much sense at the service level as it ...
