Join us for an exclusive conversation with Robert C. Martin (Uncle Bob), the legendary author behind Clean Code, Clean Architecture, and the creator of the SOLID principles. In this thought-provoking interview, we delve deep into the core of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), software design, and the future of development.
