Design Patterns Help to Increase Speed – PwP Episode 25

Challenges

  • Integrating design patterns effectively to enhance software maintainability.
  • Accelerating development without introducing technical debt.
  • Identifying the right patterns for specific problems or team contexts.

Solutions

  • Leveraging design patterns to simplify complex coding scenarios.
  • Promoting shared understanding of patterns across development teams.
  • Aligning patterns with business and project goals for optimized results.

Benefits

  • Faster development cycles with reduced errors.
  • Improved code maintainability and clarity.
  • Enhanced team collaboration through a shared coding framework.

In this episode, Jeffrey discusses using design patterns to increase speed. Speed is a pillar of the Clear Measure Way, just like establishing quality and achieving stability.

Elements of a design pattern:

  • Problem: a tension or issue in the software. Some trait or condition that is desired to be improved
  • Solution: the way of organizing some code elements to resolve the Problem
  • Benefit: the concrete advantage that code applying the pattern demonstrates
  • Language: higher-level name for code that creates a higher-order concept
  • A design pattern is an idea. Code implementing it is merely an example of the idea
