In this course, students will expand their knowledge of object-oriented programming and apply that knowledge to the design and construction of a basic MVC framework that can be used to develop a variety of mobile applications. Starting with a review of the object-oriented principles covered in earlier courses, this level will cover advanced topics like class autoloading, inheritance, interfaces and abstract classes, and polymorphism.
Students will create a fully object-oriented application, bootstrapped from a single point of entry. The course also introduces important new applications and principles including autoloader recommendations, if applicable, and an appropriate package manager for the programming language in use.
Objectives
Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
- Design an Object-Oriented application
- Separate the major concerns of all applications into separate components
- Understand and implement the MVC design pattern in their own projects
- Understand how namespacing is essential in modern applications
- Implement a class autoloader to include all the files required
- Use the SQLite database to rapidly develop portable applications
- Use a package manager to add functionality to their applications by importing existing and tested modules from other vendors
- Build a simple, working MVC framework that can be used to develop a variety of applications
