Adapter Pattern (feat. Entity Framework) - DESIGN PATTERNS (C#/.NET)

Learn about the adapter pattern, which is a structural design pattern that allows us to "adapt" an interface to a different interface. This pattern is crucial for abstracting dependencies on third-party libraries or legacy systems. In terms of SOLID principles, the adapter pattern also helps specifically achieve the Open-Closed and Dependency Inversion principles. Design patterns are important for implementing object-oriented designs and adhering to SOLID principles. Understanding these fundamental patterns helps software developers build clean and maintainable applications.
