The Design Principles used are:

DRY Principle
KISS Principle
YAGNI Principle

DRY Principle:

I utilized this principle to make my code more composed and simpler to keep up. And furthermore spare my time at whatever point I need to change something later on.

KISS Principle:

I utilized this principle to make it simpler for other software engineers to envision the different parts of the applications, intellectually planning the potential impacts of any change.

YAGNI Principle:

I utilized this principle since it abstains from investing energy on features that may not be used and helps me avoid feature creep.
