Best Practices Guide

[abrthel]

Especially helpful for new comers, a best practices guide would collect random mind dumps from
Solnic & company from various sources, and compose them into several examples featuring the best and worst ways to use ROM.

It is my intention for this issue to remain open as to collect examples via comments until such time there is a sufficient number of examples to create the guide.

If you have found a pattern that you think works well PLEASE SHARE IT

Best Practices

Skinny Repos, Fat Relations

ROM repository methods should be as small as possible, instead move customization and queries into relation views.

Invalid Object Anti-Pattern

Objects should not be allowed to be created in an invalid state - Solnic notes
