Welcome to the "Design Patterns Implementation" repository! This repository contains an extensive collection of design patterns implemented in Java. The implementation is organized into three main categories: behavioral, creational, and structural design patterns. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced Java developer, this repository can serve as a valuable resource to learn about design patterns and their practical applications.
Design patterns are proven solutions to recurring design problems in software development. They provide a structured approach to solving common design issues, making code more maintainable, reusable, and easier to understand. By understanding and applying design patterns, developers can create well-structured, flexible, and robust software.
The repository is structured into three sub-folders, each representing a category of design patterns:
-
Behavioral: This folder contains implementations of behavioral design patterns. Behavioral patterns focus on the interaction between objects, how they communicate, and how they distribute responsibilities.
-
Creational: In the "creational" folder, you will find implementations of creational design patterns. Creational patterns are concerned with the process of object creation, hiding the instantiation logic, making the system more independent of the objects' creation process.
-
Structural: The "structural" folder contains implementations of structural design patterns. Structural patterns deal with the composition of classes and objects, forming larger structures while keeping them flexible and efficient.
Each design pattern has been carefully implemented and documented in its respective folder. The code is thoroughly commented to provide a clear understanding of the design principles and their application.
To get started with this repository and explore the design patterns, follow these steps:
-
Clone the Repository: Start by cloning this repository to your local machine using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/jaf107/design-patterns-implementations.git -
Navigate to a Design Pattern: Choose a design pattern from either the "behavioral," "creational," or "structural" folder, and navigate to its directory.
-
Review the Implementation: Open the Java file for the selected design pattern and review the code. The code is well-documented, providing insights into the pattern's purpose and usage.
-
Compile and Run: If you wish to experiment with the code, make sure you have Java Development Kit (JDK) installed on your system. Compile and run the Java files to see the design pattern in action.
Contributions to this repository are welcome! If you spot any issues, bugs, or improvements, feel free to open an issue or submit a pull request. Please ensure that your contributions adhere to the coding standards and are well-documented to maintain the quality of the repository.
This repository is licensed under the MIT License, which means you are free to use, modify, and distribute the code as long as you retain the original license.
I would like to express my gratitude to all the developers and authors of the design patterns implemented in this repository. Additionally, thanks to the open-source community for their valuable contributions to the software development world.
Happy coding!
