  • The single-responsibility principle (SRP) is often misused, leading to overly fragmented systems.
  • A helpful mantra for code placement: 'minimize code and maximize use cases' to promote reusability.
  • Siedersleben's blood group law categorizes components into groups for better reusability and maintainability.
  • Group 0: Generic components (e.g., Lodash, Luxon) can be used by any other group without reducing reusability.
  • Group T: Technical components (e.g., knex, passport) are good candidates for open-sourcing.
  • Group A: Domain components should be scanned to move reusable logic to Group 0 or T.
  • Group AT: Anti-pattern where a technical component depends on a domain component—must be avoided.
