Project – AutoMapper
We just covered different ways to implement object mapping, but here we will leverage an open source tool named AutoMapper, which does it for us instead of us implementing our own.
Why bother learning all of that if there is a tool that already does it? There are a few reasons to do so:
- It is important to understand the concepts; you don't always need a full-fledged tool like AutoMapper.
- It gives us the chance to cover multiple patterns that we applied to the mappers that can also be applied elsewhere to any components with different responsibilities. So, all in all, you should have learned multiple new techniques during this object mapping progression.
- Lastly, we dug deeper into applying the SOLID principles to write better programs.
This project is also a copy of the Clean Architecture sample. The biggest difference between this project and the others is that we don't need to define any interface because AutoMapper...
