Stop Writing if-else! Use Strategy Pattern

In this video, we'll explore the Strategy Design Pattern and learn how it helps you build flexible, maintainable, and extensible applications in C# and .NET 10.

Using a practical shipping cost calculation example, we'll progressively refactor a traditional implementation into a clean Strategy Pattern solution using Dependency Injection and modern object-oriented design principles.


💡 What You’ll Learn

✔️ What is Strategy Pattern
✔️ Why large if-else statements become a maintenance problem
✔️ Implementing Strategy Pattern in C#
✔️ Registering strategies using Dependency Injection
✔️ Building a shipping calculator with interchangeable algorithms
✔️ Common mistakes developers make
✔️ When to use—and when not to use—the Strategy Pattern
