Dependency Inversion Principle: Decoupling Your Code
TLDR TLDR: The Dependency Inversion Principle (DIP) states that high-level business logic should depend on abstractions (interfaces), not on concrete implementations (MySQL, SendGrid, etc.). This lets you swap a database or email provider without to...
