What is the Dependency Rule in Clean Architecture?

This rule states that source code dependencies can only point inwards.

By following this rule, you create a system in which your application's core business logic is independent of external dependencies.

The main idea behind the Dependency Rule is controlling coupling.

Our domain entities and business rules are at the center of the system. They don't depend on anything, which is valuable because it makes them stable.

Things around the Domain can change, but that shouldn't affect the domain entities or business rules.

Let's illustrate this with a use case for registering a user:

• The Domain layer contains the entity and doesn't have any other references
• The Application layer contains the use case and defines an interface for data access. It references the Domain layer so it can access the domain entity.
• The Infrastructure layer implements the repository interface. So, it has to reference the Application layer.
• The Presentation layer exposes the API endpoint. It references the Application layer to access the use case. But it also references the Infrastructure layer to wire up DI.

Many claim to use AI tools to assist their development. But, it seems every man for himself.

How should we prepare undergraduates to use AI tools to assist coding at #university and #collages so that it would be effective? #HigherEducation

Are there any best practices for using AI tools to assist with coding?
