MVC Pattern
MVC Pattern
A design pattern that separates software's concerns into three parts: Model, View, and Controller. Used to build web applications, particularly GUI-based ones.
Model (MVC)
Model (MVC)
Represents the data and business logic of your application. It interacts with the database for data retrieval, manipulation, and storage.
View (MVC)
View (MVC)
Responsible for presenting data to the user. Displays the information received from the Model, based on the Controller's instructions.
Controller (MVC)

Study Notes
Working with Laravel
- Laravel is a framework for building web applications.
- It uses the Model-View-Controller (MVC) design pattern.
MVC Pattern
- A widely used architectural pattern in software development.
- Separates application concerns into interconnected components.
- Model, View, and Controller.
- Improves maintainability and facilitates collaboration.
Model
- Handles all data-related logic.
- Represents application data and business logic.
- Encapsulates data operations (retrieval, manipulation, validation, storage)
- Interacts with the database, responds to controller requests.
- Independent of user interface.
View
- Responsible for all user interface logic.
- Generates user interface.
- Receives data from the Model (through the Controller).
- Renders data in a suitable format (e.g., HTML).
- Separates visual representation from business logic.
Controller
- Connects the View and Model.
- Processes user input and performs actions.
- Updates the Model and View accordingly.
- Decides which Model methods to invoke, and which View to render.
- Orchestrates interactions between components.
Logic of MVC Pattern
- The server receives an end-user request.
- The server sends it to the appropriate controller.
- The controller requests data from the model.
- The model retrieves data from the database.
- The controller passes the data to the view.
- The view renders the data and returns it to the user.
Key Principles and the MVC Pattern
- Separation of Concerns: Isolates different aspects of an application.
- Modularity and Reusability: Enhances maintainability and scalability.
- Testability: Easier to write unit tests for components.
- Parallel Development: Allows teams to work on different components concurrently.
Advantages of MVC
- Easy to maintain and extend.
- Model components can be tested separately.
- Reduces complexity.
- Supports Test-Driven Development (TDD)
- Works well for web apps with large development teams
- Search Engine Optimization (SEO) friendly
Disadvantages of MVC
- Can be difficult to read, change, or reuse.
- Not suitable for small applications.
- Inefficient data access in the view.
- Complex framework navigation; new layers of abstraction to adapt.
- Increased complexity and data inefficiency.
