Clean code in small steps and explore emerging design patterns such as Interpreter, Fluent Builder, Factory Methods
Key Features
- Practice refactoring in small steps
- Understand how to achieve clean code
- Discover how you can reuse design patterns
- Understand how SOLID principles support refactoring
Book Description
This course is the first module of the Pyramid of Refactoring series dedicated to achieving clean code.With this course, you'll learn how to manage code cleaning from a technical and organizational perspective and get hands-on with refactoring using the IntelliJ IDE and Java language.Throughout the course, you'll get to grips with refactoring techniques and perform all the changes in real time. You can download the source code and perform all the exercises alongside the trainer step by step.
Through a sample project, the course will demonstrate how you can make use of the Interpreter design pattern to guide the process of refactoring your code base. You'll explore Factory Method and Fluent Builder, the two creational design patterns that are a result of the refactoring activities. The course also takes you through SOLID principles in practice to help you learn them quickly.
By the end of this course, you'll understand why you should make refactoring a part of your daily software development activities instead of treating it as a separate task.
