Should the DRY principle be applied when following SOLID principles in development?

The DRY principle (Don't Repeat Yourself) and SOLID principles complement each other. DRY aims to eliminate code duplication, which improves maintainability and reduces the likelihood of errors. SOLID principles help create flexible and extendable architecture.

By adhering to SOLID principles, DRY helps avoid repeating logic, especially when dividing responsibilities (Single Responsibility Principle) and using abstractions (Dependency Inversion Principle). However, it's important not to overdo it with DRY to avoid creating overly complex abstractions for minor duplication.

In conclusion: DRY should be applied, but within a reasonable balance with SOLID, so that the code remains understandable and maintainable.
