Convention Over Configuration vs Surface Wiring
Developers should adopt Convention Over Configuration when working on projects where consistency, rapid development, and reduced cognitive load are priorities, such as in web applications using frameworks like Ruby on Rails or Django meets developers should learn surface wiring when working on complex applications where managing dependencies and component interactions becomes cumbersome, as it helps prevent 'spaghetti code' and makes the system easier to test and refactor. Here's our take.
