विशिष्ट patterns से परे, DRY, KISS, YAGNI, और अन्य जैसे design principles अच्छा code लिखने का मार्गदर्शन करते हैं। ये यादगार principles simplicity, duplication से बचने, और over-building न करने के बारे में मूलभूत ज्ञान को समेटते हैं।
मूल principles
DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) → avoid DUPLICATION → each piece of knowledge has ONE
authoritative representation (duplication → bugs/changes in many places)
KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid) → favor SIMPLICITY → simple solutions are easier to
understand, maintain, and debug (avoid unnecessary complexity)
YAGNI (You Aren't Gonna Need It) → don't build features/flexibility you don't NEED yet →
avoid speculative generality (build what's needed, not what might be needed)
