MVC Pattern
The Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern is a software architectural design pattern that separates an application into three interconnected components: the Model (data and business logic), the View (user interface), and the Controller (handles user input and updates the Model and View). This separation promotes organized code, easier maintenance, and scalability by decoupling data presentation from user interaction and business rules. It is widely used in web and desktop applications to manage complexity and improve testability.
Developers should learn and use the MVC pattern when building applications that require clear separation of concerns, such as web applications with dynamic user interfaces, to enhance code maintainability and team collaboration. It is particularly valuable in scenarios where multiple developers work on different parts of an application simultaneously, as it allows for independent development of the UI, business logic, and data layers. The pattern also facilitates unit testing and reduces code duplication by isolating responsibilities.
