SOLID Principles #1 | Single Responsibility Principle in Simple Terms
The Single Responsibility Principle (SRP) is the foundation of clean, maintainable, and scalable code — but most explanations make it more confusing than it needs to be.
In this short, beginner-friendly video, you’ll learn exactly what SRP means, why it matters, and how to instantly spot and fix violations in your classes.
We break down a real example: a Product class overloaded with multiple responsibilities like storing product info, calculating GST, PST, and discounts. Then we refactor it into cleaner, focused classes that each handle a single responsibility — exactly how SOLID is meant to be applied in real-world codebases.
You’ll learn:
✅ What the Single Responsibility Principle actually means
✅ Why classes should only have one reason to change
✅ How to split responsibilities across clean, focused classes
✅ The difference between data responsibilities and business logic
✅ How applying SRP improves maintainability, testing, readability, and scalability
Ideal for beginners, interview prep, and developers learning SOLID or clean architecture.
