## Overview

Apply proven design patterns to create maintainable, extensible, and testable code architectures.

## When to Use

- Solving common architectural problems
- Making code more maintainable and testable
- Implementing extensible plugin systems
- Decoupling components
- Following SOLID principles
- Code reviews identifying architectural issues

## Quick Start

Minimal working example:

```typescript
class DatabaseConnection {
  private static instance: DatabaseConnection;
  private connection: any;

  private constructor() {
    this.connection = this.createConnection();
  }

  public static getInstance(): DatabaseConnection {
    if (!DatabaseConnection.instance) {
      DatabaseConnection.instance = new DatabaseConnection();
    }
    return DatabaseConnection.instance;
  }

  private createConnection() {
    return {
      /* connection logic */
    };
  }
}

// Usage
const db1 = DatabaseConnection.getInstance();
const db2 = DatabaseConnection.getInstance();
// ... (see reference guides for full implementation)
```

## Best Practices

### ✅ DO

- Choose patterns that solve actual problems
- Keep patterns simple and understandable
- Document why patterns were chosen
- Consider testability
- Follow SOLID principles
- Use dependency injection
- Prefer composition over inheritance

### ❌ DON'T

- Apply patterns without understanding them
- Over-engineer simple solutions
- Force patterns where they don't fit
- Create unnecessary abstraction layers
- Ignore team familiarity with patterns
