We have still included the repetitive code structures (called boilerplate code) in the model layer per class and per property for constraint validation (checks and setters) and per class for the data storage management methods add
, update
, and destroy
. While it is good to write this code a few times for learning app development, you don't want to write it again and again when you work on real projects. For avoiding repetitive boilerplate code, generic forms of these methods are needed, such that they can be reused in all model classes of an app. For instance, the cLASSjs library provides such an approach.
