A design pattern is a reusable solution to a recurring problem. Too many inexperienced devs forget that part, and use a pattern where the problem it's designed to solve doesn't exist. Had the author read the GoF book (he admits he still hasn't) he might have avoided that pitfall.
- joshdick 10y agoYeah, I can't believe someone would write a blog post about design patterns without reading the GoF book. The authors are very explicit in every chapter about what problems are a good fit for that design pattern.
