Writing SOLID Code: An Introduction to the SOLID Principles

SOLID is an acronym that represents five crucial principles of class design in object oriented development.  The terms were originally coined by Robert Martin (aka Uncle Bob) back in the 1990s.  Although these concepts are certainly not new, they have received considerable press in the .NET community over the last couple of years, which has left many developers wondering..."what's the big deal?"  In this session, we will take a practical look at the SOLID principles by discussing steps that can be taken to apply them in your code and why you should care about striving to use them.

About Me

I'm a passionate software developer and advocate of the Microsoft .NET platform.  In my opinion, software development is a craft that necessitates a conscious effort to continually improve your skills rather than falling into the trap of complacency.  I was also awarded as a Microsoft MVP in Connected Systems in 2008, 2009, and 2010.
