Component Driven Development
Component Driven Development (CDD) is a software development methodology that emphasizes building user interfaces from reusable, self-contained components. It involves designing and developing components in isolation before integrating them into larger applications, promoting modularity and consistency. This approach is commonly used with modern frontend frameworks like React, Vue, and Angular to streamline UI development.
Developers should use CDD when building complex, scalable user interfaces that require consistency and reusability across projects, such as in design systems or large web applications. It reduces duplication, improves maintainability, and enables parallel development by allowing teams to work on components independently. CDD is particularly valuable in environments where UI consistency and rapid prototyping are priorities.
