Following the Loose Coupling principle
As software grows in complexity, the relationships between its components can become tangled, leading to a system that is hard to understand, maintain, and extend. The principle of Loose Coupling aims to mitigate this issue.
What does it mean?
Loose coupling refers to minimizing the dependencies between different parts of a program. In a loosely coupled system, components are independent and interact through well-defined interfaces, making it easier to make changes to one part without affecting others.
Benefits
Loose coupling offers several advantages:
- Maintainability: With fewer dependencies, it’s easier to update or replace individual components
- Extensibility: A loosely coupled system can be more easily extended with new features or components
- Testability: Independent components are easier to test in isolation, improving the overall quality of your software
