Abstract

Creating code is easy, creating good code takes a lot of time, effort, discipline, and commitment. The code we create are truly the manifestations of our designs. Creating a lightweight design can help make the code more extensible and reusable.

In this presentation we will take an example oriented approach to look at some core design principles that can help us create better design and more maintainable code.
