About this page

Design principles (fresher level) introduces the SOLID set and the heuristics around it. This module is an elevation arc: it walks SOLID in order — SRP, OCP, LSP, ISP, DIP — so a fresher meets each principle and its failure mode. Then the two composition principles (composition vs inheritance, coupling and cohesion) that translate SOLID into daily class design. It closes with DRY-KISS-YAGNI — the pragmatics that keep a fresher from over-engineering.
