What is the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern?

Beginner

Answer

MVC separates an application into three interconnected components:
Model: Manages data and business logic
View: Handles user interface and presentation
Controller: Manages user input and coordinates between Model and View
Benefits:

  • Separation of concerns
  • Parallel development
  • Code reusability
  • Easier testing
    Example flow:
  1. User clicks button (View)
  2. Controller receives input
  3. Controller updates Model
  4. Model notifies View of changes
  5. View updates display
