1.. What is an Adapter Pattern?.
Adapter is a structural design pattern, which allows incompatible objects to collaborate. The Adapter acts as a wrapper between two objects. It catches calls for one object and transforms them to format and interface recognizable by the second object.

3.. When is it recommended?
it's very often used in systems based on some legacy code. In such cases,
Adapters make legacy code work with modern classes.
4.. How i use Adapter Pattern with express.js (personal opinion).
I started to use Adapter Pattern 3 months ago in all my projects with express.js, flask(Python) and fiber(go).
My motivation to use Adapters.
i want to isolate my code from frameworks, it means i don’t wanna make a project that depends totally from one single framework. a framework can get old, can be replaced by one better and I can adapt my project to a new framework without having to rewrite all the code again.
