COSMIC CODE COMPLEXITY CONCEPTS
Introduction
The CoSMIC concepts were first introduced together as whole by Dave Farley in his book
“Modern Software Engineering” (2021), even though each concept separately has been well-known
and established for a long time.
The goal was to give a sensible and comprehensive set of ideas to manage code complexity.
They are:
- Cohesion
- Separation of Concerns
- Modularity
- Information Hiding / Abstraction
- Coupling
They were presented in different a order, and without acronym.
The acronym was proposed by the DevOps Craftsman for the first time on patreon the 7/24/2023.
