Design Patterns

What are design patterns?

Design patterns are the time tested solutions to the reoccurring problems that arise during the software development. You can think of design pattern as a way to organise components such that would result in higher reusability, extensibility, and maintainability.

Design patterns are not invented, they are discovered.

That means you can discover your own pattern soon.

1. The Strategy Pattern
