Dependency INVERSION vs Dependency INJECTION in Python

💡 Learn how to design great software in 7 steps: https://arjan.codes/designguide.

What's the difference between dependency inversion and dependency injection? Dependency injection is a design pattern that splits creation of objects from their usage. Dependency inversion is a design principle that promotes using abstract classes and interfaces to better separate code. Watch this video to see a few practical examples in Python, and how these concepts help you write nice code that's easy to test.
