Hi,

I saw your course, nice job as always.

I'm using Dapper in my project, can I use Specification Pattern with it? I mean is it logical?

vkhorikov commented 4 years ago

It's fine as long as you have at least 2 use cases for the Specification pattern. Also, here are a couple articles that may be helpful:

I already using CQRS in my application, and based on the last paragraph (before summary section) of the first mentioned article, I think there is no need to use Specification Pattern, I mean it sound like YAGNI violation, what do you think?

No need if all you want is reuse querying logic between reads and writes.
