Welcome to the course1:06
Introduction to Design Patterns1:45
Why Learn Design Patterns1:42
Learn why design patterns matter as a problem solving toolkit that saves time, improves collaboration through a shared language, and elevates skills by teaching scalable, maintainable, and reusable code.
History of Design Patterns1:14
Trace the origins of design patterns from architect Christopher Alexander to the GOF book, revealing 23 foundational object-oriented patterns and their adoption beyond programming to diverse domains.
Structure of a Design Pattern1:09
Criticism of Design Patterns2:54
Classification of Design Patterns3:23
Quiz: Introduction to design patterns

Factory Method Design Pattern19:36
Abstract Factory Design Pattern21:38
Explore the abstract factory design pattern to create families of related objects without concrete classes, enabling decoupled, scalable UI components across Windows and Mac.
Builder Pattern22:57
Prototype Design Pattern15:47
Singleton Design Pattern14:17
Differentiating Creational Design Patterns4:19
Quiz: Creational Design Patterns
Singleton Pattern
Factory Method Pattern
Abstract Factory Pattern
Builder Pattern
Prototype Pattern

Adapter Design Pattern14:22
Bridge Design Pattern17:20
The bridge design pattern decouples abstraction from implementation via a bridge interface, enabling independent evolution of high level logic and low level tasks through concrete implementations.
Composite Pattern26:09
Decorator Design Pattern19:53
Facade Design Pattern21:45
Explore the facade design pattern, which provides a simplified interface to a complex subsystem, hides its complexity, and decouples clients via a single entry point in a home theater.
flyweight_design_pattern19:43
Proxy Design Pattern20:41
Differentiating Structural Design Patterns5:18
Quiz: Structural Design Patterns
Adapter Pattern
Bridge Pattern

Chain of Responsibility Pattern21:32
Command Design Pattern22:22
Iterator Design Pattern22:19
Mediator Pattern19:06
Memento Pattern21:53
Observer Pattern28:38
Explore the observer pattern, a one-to-many behavioral design where a subject notifies observers of state changes. Learn push and pull models, UML structure, and real-world applications.
State Design Pattern28:53
Explore the state design pattern, a behavioral design where a context changes behavior by delegating to concrete states and transitions, illustrated with a traffic light and document states.
Strategy Design Pattern20:28
Learn the strategy design pattern, a behavioral approach that encapsulates a family of interchangeable algorithms, allowing the context to switch strategies at runtime and avoid conditional logic.
Template Method Pattern24:35
Explore the template method pattern that defines a fixed data processing pipeline: load, clean, process, and save, while subclasses customize steps in Python.
Visitor Design Pattern28:07
Differentiating Behavioral Design Patterns6:07
Quiz: Behavioral Design Patterns
Strategy Pattern
Observer Pattern
Command Pattern
Chain of Responsibility Pattern
Template Method Pattern
State Pattern
Mediator Pattern
Memento Pattern
Visitor Pattern
Iterator Pattern

Requirements

Basic programming knowledge is recommended, but no prior experience with design patterns is required.
Familiarity with object-oriented programming (OOP) concepts will be helpful but is not mandatory
A computer with any code editor to practice coding exercises.
Enthusiasm to learn and apply best practices in software design.
