Interface MaterialObserver

All Known Implementing Classes:
AnalyticsObserver, AuditLogObserver, InventoryObserver
public interface MaterialObserver
Observer interface for material-related events in the Observer pattern. Defines the contract for objects that need to be notified of material events.

This interface allows components to subscribe to material events and be automatically notified when events occur, enabling loose coupling between the event source and event handlers.
