Every developer strives to write maintainable, readable, and reusable code. Code structuring becomes more important as applications become larger. Design patterns prove crucial to solving this challenge - providing an organization structure for common issues in a particular circumstance.
JavaScript web developers frequently interact with design patterns, even unknowingly, when creating applications.
Although there is a diverse list of design patterns used in certain circumstances, JavaScript developers tend to use some patterns customarily more than others.
In this post, I want to discuss these common patterns to expose ways to improve your programming repertoire and dive deeper into the JavaScript internals.
The design patterns in question include the following:
- Module
- Prototype
- Observer
- Singleton
Each pattern consists of many properties, though, I will emphasize the following key points:
- Context: Where/under what circumstances is the pattern used?
- Problem: What are we trying to solve?
- Solution: How does using this pattern solve our proposed problem?
- Implementation: What does the implementation look like?
