What is a µObject (micro-object)? It's a tiny object. Not a small object with a single responsibility - A µObject does one thing. Let me show with a simple example. If we have a method with a guard clause and then it does something; say Write "Hello…
In the last post we got the Title of the UWP app passing up the app. But it's not part of the app. There's no trigger for the app to LOAD the data. We have the mechanism; but where from? Today we'll get the…
In Elegant Objects Vol 1 [https://quinngil.com/2017/08/06/book-review-elegant-objects-vol-1/] most chapters have an associated blog post.
