µObjects: By Example - Playing Cards I've been a bit remiss on good code examples for µObjects. I've been planning a few things; never got them done. Almost entirely because I'm lazy. So... I'm going to try a simple example of the…
There's a couple types of places where the code we write interacts with the code someone else wrote. This could be another team, a 3rd party library, or the operating system. When we interact with these components, we're tying our code to their code in some…
Inheritance is a code smell. Composition over Inheritance This is a known suggestion to improve the maintainability of software. How does this play into microObjects? Everything has a single responsibility. It's doing A thing; as I talk about in µObjects: Principles to code by [https://quinngil.com/2017/…
In object oriented programming we need to create objects. It's kinda how things get done. Here's a high level question for you - When do we instantiate an object? Pull up a few source files - Where do you see object creation happening? Is it scattered…
Our goal as software developers is to produce code that can be easily maintained. This is frequently a challenge; as writing good code is hard. µObjects is a way of Object Oriented Programming that I've found gives us this. There are a number of ways that µObjects improve…
How do we improve the quality of code produced by our industry? That's what I want to see happen. It's a young industry which is largely trying to figure out how to produce high quality code. It's fairly effortless to make a computer do…
Maintainability by never using concrete implementations. Our goal as software developers is to produce code that can be easily maintained. This is frequently a challenge; as writing good code is hard. µObjects is a way of Object Oriented Programming that I've found gives us this. There are a…
Maintainability through limiting change with Encapsulation Our goal as software developers is to produce code that can be easily maintained. This is frequently a challenge; as writing good code is hard. µObjects is a way of Object Oriented Programming that I've found gives us this. There are a…
