Design patterns using GO

The 23 unique design patterns, categorized into Creational, Structural, and Behavioral patterns, as outlined by the Gang of Four (GoF):

Creational Patterns (5 Patterns)

These patterns deal with object-creation mechanisms.

1. Singleton – Ensures only one instance of a class is created. read more

2. Factory Method – Creates objects without specifying the exact class.read more

3. Abstract Factory – Provides an interface for creating related objects without specifying concrete classes. read more

4. Builder – Separates object construction from its representation. read more

5. Prototype – Creates a new object by cloning an existing object. read more

Structural Patterns (7 Patterns)

These patterns deal with object composition and structure.

1. Adapter – Allows incompatible interfaces to work together.read more

2. Bridge – Separates an object’s abstraction from its implementation.

3. Composite – Treats individual objects and compositions uniformly.

4. Decorator – Adds behaviour to objects dynamically.

5. Facade – Provides a simplified interface to a complex system.

6. Flyweight – Reduces memory usage by sharing common parts of objects.

7. Proxy – Provides a placeholder or surrogate for another object.

Behavioral Patterns (11 Patterns)

These patterns are concerned with object interaction and communication.

1. Chain of Responsibility – Passes requests along a chain of handlers.
2. Command – Encapsulates requests as objects, allowing for parameterization.
3. Interpreter – Implements a specialized language grammar.
4. Iterator – Provides a way to access elements of a collection sequentially.
5. Mediator – Centralizes complex communications between objects.
6. Memento – Captures an object’s internal state for restoring later.
7. Observer – Defines a dependency between objects to update automatically.
8. State – Allows an object to change its behaviour when its state changes.
9. Strategy – Enables selecting an algorithm at runtime.
10. Template Method – Defines the skeleton of an algorithm, with steps overridden by subclasses.
11. Visitor – Separates an algorithm from the object structure it operates on.
