OOP and Clean Design topics and modules

Does your team work regularly with object-oriented programming and strives for clean design in software development? If so, we have just the thing for you! Customized trainings also for developers who specialize in object-oriented programming and clean design. Get the most out of your software projects. Thanks to individual modules, your development team can receive customized training focused on the principles of clean design and object-oriented programming.

What topics are included in the area of modern object orientation and clean architecture? Courses in this subject area typically consist of a selection of the following modules. The following list includes the most common modern object orientation and clean architecture topics in all languages, but the training can be adjusted to the level of your team. Based on this, our trainer will maintain the individual objective of the course.

We don't preach theory, we solve problems! Get the maximum knowledge for your team. Compile the topics according to your previous knowledge and needs, depending on the project. Because individual learning brings the desired success!

Object Orientation

This section covers both fundamentals of object orientation that are independent of the programming language you use, as well as mechanisms that the programming language of your choice provides for implementing object-oriented designs. In the section on programming language-specific modules, you will find links to additional topics that are relevant for the various programming languages.

  • Basic concepts of object orientation
  • User-defined data types
  • Inheritance, abstract classes, and interfaces
  • Protocols (for Python)
  • Templates (for C++)
  • Multiple inheritance (for Python, C++)

Brief introduction to patterns and UML

Graphical representations are sometimes easier to understand than code for recognizing large relationships. In this short module, you'll learn how to use some of the diagram types in UML to sketch out the structure and interactions of your software on the whiteboard. We'll also briefly cover what design patterns are and why they're a great way to get quick, in-depth insights into good software design.

  • What are patterns and why are they interesting for us?
  • Class diagrams
  • Interaction diagrams
  • Sequence diagrams
  • Collaboration diagrams
  • Activity diagrams

Design Patterns

The book "Design Patterns" was the trigger for the wave of publications and conferences dealing with patterns. The four authors of the book are often jokingly referred to as the "Gang of Four", hence the term "Gang of Four Patterns" (GoF Patterns for short) is sometimes used when trying to distinguish them from the multitude of other patterns.

Many of these patterns have proven themselves in countless software projects, and every programmer, designer, and architect involved in object-oriented software should have heard of them.

  • Erzeugungsmuster (Creational Patterns)
  • Factory Method
  • Abstract Factory
  • Singleton
  • Builder
  • Prototype
  • Strukturmuster (Structural Patterns)
  • Adapter
  • Bridge
  • Decorator
  • Facade
  • Flyweight
  • Composite
  • Proxy
  • Behavioral Patterns
  • Interpreter
  • Template Method
  • Observer
  • Visitor
  • Iterator
  • Command
  • Memento
  • Strategy
  • Mediator
  • State
  • Chain of Responsibility

SOLID Patterns

The SOLID patterns are a collection of five design patterns popularized by Robert Martin as part of his Clean Code and Clean Architecture books. In this module, you will learn about the SOLID patterns and see what the benefits (and problems) of using them are and how to make sense of them.

  • Single Responsibility Principle
  • Open Closed Principle
  • Liskov Substitution Principle
  • Interface Segregation Principle
  • Dependence Inversion Principle

GRASP Patterns

The "General Responsibility Assignment Software Patterns" (GRASP) are a collection of nine design patterns for object-oriented design and for structuring responsibilities, published by Craig Larman, which provide a somewhat different perspective on architectural issues than the SOLID principles.

  • Information Expert
  • Creator
  • Controller
  • Indirection
  • Low coupling
  • High cohesion
  • Polymorphism
  • Protected variations
  • Pure fabrication

Architektur-Patterns

Practical Software Architecture and Architecture Patterns

Design patterns can be applied not only at the design level, but also in the area of software architecture one can identify patterns, e.g., different architectural styles of how a system can be structured in the big picture. In this module, we address some commonly encountered architectural styles and show what consequences result from the choice of architectural style.

  • Emergent architecture
  • Architectural styles
  • Layered architecture
  • Pipes and filter architecture
  • Hexagonal architecture

Combining Patterns

In this module, we discuss how patterns are combined in many systems to solve various design problems. Here you will see examples of how patterns can be combined in a useful way, but also how overuse of patterns can make software too complicated and difficult to maintain.

  • Interaction of patterns
  • Antipattern: "Patternitis"
  • Examples: Game programming
  • Examples: Personnel management system

Working effectively as a team

These modules cover techniques that help make teamwork more productive and improve the quality of the resulting software.

The Working effectively as a team module includes the following focus areas:

  • Version control (Git)
  • Docker
  • Continuous Integration (CI)
  • Workflows: Issue Tracking, Pull/Merge Requests
  • Example: working with a local GitLab instance in Docker
  • Kubernetes
  • Elasticsearch/Kibana (OpenSearch/Dashboards)

Example: Customized Clean Software Architecture

This example shows how some courses can be structured to meet typical customer requirements.

Example: Improve or Redesign Software Architecture

What could a course on Modern OOP and Clean Architecture look like?

If your team wants to improve the existing software architecture or wants to learn and apply the techniques for designing and designing effective software architecture with Object Oriented Programming (OOP), then this course is just right for you. A Clean Software Architecture course would typically cover a selection of the following topics:

  • Object-Oriented Design (OOD)
  • Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) in the language of your choice
  • How do I use OOD and OOP correctly? How do I avoid pitfalls?
  • Design and architecture patterns
  • Systems of Patterns (GoF, SOLID, GRASP)

Questions and answers about OOP and Clean Design training

What course formats are available?

3-day on-site course at the Coding Academy

The course takes place in our modern and top-equipped training rooms. We provide each participant with a modern laptop during the training. Drinks are provided by the Coding Academy. You will receive access to the materials no later than the first day of the course.
