Design Patterns in Go 🧠

This repository contains examples of classic software design patterns implemented in Go, organized by category.

Each pattern includes:

• A clear, commented Go implementation
• A simple real-world analogy
• When to use it (and when not to)

📦 Categories

Creational

• Singleton – Ensures only one instance is used (e.g., Redis connection)
• Factory Method – Powers a URL shortener that selects between random and hash-based generation strategies
• Builder

Structural

• Adapter
• Decorator

Behavioral

• Observer
• Strategy

🧑‍💻 Why this project?

I'm learning and practicing design patterns by building them one by one in Go — this is both a personal learning log and a portfolio project. Each pattern is paired with a small real-world example to make it easier to understand and apply.

🛠 Language

• Go (Golang)
