We've all been there: a growing service class that handles API interactions, starting simple but gradually accumulating responsibilities. The initial design seemed reasonable, but now it's a sprawling monolith. When do you step back and refactor?

The Problem: Feature Creep

Imagine a DataService class initially designed to fetch data. Over time, it gains methods for caching, error handling,

Have you ever felt lost in your own codebase? We've all been there, staring at a complex system, wondering how it ballooned out of control. In the ProvidenceAPI/ProvidenceAPI-Back project, we recently faced a similar challenge. While no specific language or framework was apparent from the source data, we found opportunities to improve readability and maintainability through architectural
