Philosophies

Keep It Simple (KISS) If a solution is simple but works, it’s valid — even if it deviates from strict principles.

You Aren’t Gonna Need It (YAGNI) Avoid implementing features not currently needed. Focus on present requirements, but implement them generically.

Loose Coupling Minimize interactions between components; focus on modular function design.

Readability > Patterns Use patterns as guides, not strict rules. Adapt them to fit the problem at hand.
