2 — Structural Patterns
Catalogs Adapter, Bridge, Composite, Decorator, Facade, Flyweight, and Proxy — the patterns that compose objects into larger structures.
Object-Oriented Programming for MAANG Interviews
A book-shaped table of contents for OOP: paradigm foundations, the four pillars, object relationships, SOLID/GRASP design principles, memory and runtime internals, GoF design patterns, language-specific OOP, and OOP at system scale — cross-linking existing pattern, concurrency, and low-level-design notes instead of duplicating them.
Patterns
A book-shaped table of contents for reusable engineering patterns spanning object-oriented design, enterprise architecture, distributed systems, messaging, APIs, cloud infrastructure, observability, security, concurrency, AI/agentic systems, and organizational design — grounded in production experience at scale.

03 — Behavioral Patterns
Distributing responsibility and communication between objects: Strategy, Observer, Command, Chain of Responsibility, Mediator, Memento, Interpreter, Iterator, State, Template Method, and Visitor.
01 — Creational Patterns
Controlling object instantiation at the composition-root level: Singleton, Factory Method, Abstract Factory, Builder, and Prototype — when each earns its complexity and how they compose in a real dependency graph.

02 — Pattern Selection & Trade-offs
How to choose between competing patterns under real forces: naming the context, weighing trade-offs and consequences, composing multiple patterns together, and recognizing when a pattern has outlived its fit.
