Am I the only one who has a distaste for this phrase "component based development"? It just seems like a fancy way of saying object oriented programming without an overarching design pattern.



Sounds like the “components” described above are much larger than classes.


that's correct, at least for us a domain encapsulates many response types and dozens of different APIs that wrap various datastores, business logic, etc.


we've actually taken the pattern of making the classes relatively stateless, and explicitly passing around typed state through these explicit apis. it's not really the same design pattern and imo conceptually different.
