Welcome to OOP Interview Prep
A structured guide to mastering Object-Oriented Programming concepts for technical interviews.
Welcome to OOP Interview Prep
This course covers the OOP concepts interviewers actually probe on: the four pillars, encapsulation and access modifiers, abstraction with abstract classes and interfaces, inheritance deep-dives, polymorphism through overloading and overriding, object relationships, SOLID principles, and foundational design patterns.
What You'll Learn
- OOP Fundamentals - What OOP is, classes vs objects, the four pillars,
this, object lifecycle - Encapsulation - Access modifiers, private fields in JS, getters and setters
- Abstraction - Abstract classes, interfaces, abstraction patterns in JavaScript
- Inheritance - Single, multilevel, multiple inheritance, the diamond problem,
super - Polymorphism - Method overriding, overloading simulation in JS, constructor overloading
- Object Relationships - Association, aggregation, composition and when to use each
- SOLID Principles - SRP, OCP, LSP, ISP, DIP with before/after refactoring examples
- Design Patterns - Singleton, Factory, Builder, Strategy, State patterns
How to Use This Course
Work through the chapters in order. Each lesson starts with a short hook, shows the concept with runnable JavaScript code, and ends with interview questions and a cheat sheet. Use the sidebar to jump around once you know the shape.
Prerequisites
- Basic JavaScript (functions, variables, arrays)
- Familiarity with ES6+ syntax (classes, arrow functions, destructuring)
- No prior OOP knowledge required
Let's get started with the fundamentals.
