Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) is the foundation of Java development. Writing clean, maintainable, and efficient OOP-based code improves scalability, readability, and reusability.

Top 10 Best Practices for Java Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)

1๏ธโƒฃ Follow SOLID Principles for Better Code Design

The SOLID principles improve code maintainability and extensibility by reducing tight coupling.

โœ… Best Practice: Follow all five SOLID principles when designing your classes.

S: Single Responsibility Principle (SRP)

A class should have only one reason to change.

๐Ÿ”น Example: Correcting SRP Violation

// โŒ Bad Practice: One class handling multiple responsibilities
class Order {
void calculateTotal() { /* Business logic */ }
void printInvoice() { /* UI logic */ }
void saveToDatabase() { /* Persistence logic */ }
}


// โœ… Good Practice: Separating responsibilities into different classes
class Order {
double calculateTotal() { return 100.0; }
}

class InvoicePrinter {
void print(Order order) { /* UI logic */ }
}

class OrderRepository {
void save(Order order) { /* Persistence logic */ }
}

๐Ÿ’ก Each class has a single responsibility, making it easier to maintain.

O: Open/Closed Principle (OCP)
