Key Facts and Insights:
- Complexity is the biggest challenge in software design and the primary goal of software design should be to manage and reduce this complexity.
- Strategic programming over tactical programming - Consider the larger picture and future implications while designing software rather than focusing only on short term solutions.
- The importance of modular design and encapsulation - Dividing the software into small, independent modules can significantly reduce complexity and improve maintainability.
- Red flags in software design - These are signs of potential problems in the design that should be addressed immediately.
- Good software design involves deep working...
