Write object-oriented code that’s manageable, maintainable, and future-proof. Simple Object Oriented Design: A guide to creating clean, maintainable code is a comprehensive handbook of design practices, principles, and patterns that help simplify object-oriented software. The book is aimed at the working developer. There’s no perfection-chasing classroom theory that fails in practice—you’ll master “good enough” techniques that are effective in real-world environments. As your software grows and expands, every new feature and functionality potentially adds complexity to your codebase. The result? Bugs, crashes, and too much time spent detangling incomprehensible legacy code. Properly-applied design principles help you ensure your applications are easy-to-manage for the long term. For readers who know an object-oriented language. This book’s Java examples are easy to understand for any developer.
