Create Class

Rule (Key Design Patterns)

When creating a new class:

• The class must represent a real-world entity or concept (noun).
• The constructor must encapsulate the entity’s coordinates: store the properties or underlying object the class uses to refer to that entity.
• The class must encapsulate all logic required to produce its result; do not rely on pre-calculated data from callers if it can be derived from dependencies.

Quick Checks

• Class name is a noun, not “-er/-or/-service/-manager”.
• Constructor captures the underlying object/properties that identify the entity.
• Callers pass minimal inputs; the class derives the rest from its dependencies.
