Tensions and synergies between design principles

Between different object-oriented design principles there are tensions and synergies.

A professional software developer should have an overall sense of all the forces at work in the code design when coding.

Ilias Bartolini developed a coding-dojo that a group of people can run multiple times to explore and develop a sense of the forces generated in the code by different design principles.

• This is the repository with the code for the coding-dojo.

• These are the instructions, the material and the facilitator’s guide

• The group can document the tensions and the synergies experienced in the sessions of the coding-dojo, this is the template

• This is an example of a graphical representation

Code examples

In this repo you find small code examples, each showing a tension or a synergy between two object-oriented design principles.

If you have more examples, please share them with a pull request.
