## Overview
Joomla 5 follows the **Model-View-Controller (MVC)** design pattern, which separates data processing (Model), presentation (View), and user interaction (Controller). This separation enhances modularity, making it easier to extend and maintain components without affecting other sections.
Joomla’s autoloading system allows developers to structure controllers, views, and models in separate files without manually including them. However, proper **naming conventions** must be followed to ensure smooth loading and execution.
