Interface Segregation Principle
The Interface Segregation Principle is a design guideline that encourages creating specific, targeted interfaces rather than one large, general one. Think of it as choosing the right tools for a job: instead of a single multi-functional tool that tries to do everything, you have smaller tools dedicated to specific tasks. This way, systems are more flexible, easier to maintain, and less prone to breaking when changes happen. Applying this principle helps prevent parts of a system from being forced to depend on methods they don't need, leading to cleaner and more efficient software design.
