• Chapter One: The Strategy Pattern

👋Hi everyone! My name is Felipe Álvarez, and I am a proud member of the engineering team at Mercadona Tech. The other day, while talking with my backend colleagues, we thought it would be cool to make a series of posts about our beloved Software Design Patterns and how we apply them daily.

We are going to take as a reference our small knowledge, the amazing web refactoring.guru, and the “Head First Design Patterns (Eric Freeman & Elisabeth Robson)” book, as we love it (I encourage you to read it 😉); and our idea is to summarize as much as we can the principal patterns that appear there. We might also include other ones too.

My intention with this post is to keep it as an index for the whole series. I will add the links to the articles as we write them.

The main goal here is to share with you a concise explanation and some simple examples about our favourite design patterns that we use daily, furthermore explaining why and how we use them.

Last but not least, this is not the ultimate source of truth and we probably don’t understand or use the patterns the way you do, so let us know about your use cases. Any feedback is more than welcome!
