OOP coaching

The aim of this repository is to provide a coaching material about Object Oriented Programming.

Though this examples should be used from «students» itself, they are tailor-made to an agile technical mentoring approach.

About this repo

The repo is made using C# language on dotnet 6+.

The main branch intentionally contains a procedural code, that is not respecting any of the OOP patterns.

The steps/* branches contains the refactored code, each step has the explanation and an example of a «feature» of OOP language.

Steps are subsequent: step 2 starts from step 1 and so on.

Example

• steps/01_object_and_classes contains the procedural code, but moved to a separate classes
• steps/02_data_abstraction contains the steps/01 code, but with a better data abstraction
• ...
• last step contains the fully refactored code, using all OOP functionalities

Remarks

As the steps are sequential, an edit to the previous branch should be merged to the next step:
