Talk:Design Patterns

What is a "design pattern"?

I don't know what it is, can you explain the general sense of "design pattern" in the page? - SnowCode (talk)

The Wikipedia article on “Pattern Language” might be a good thing to link from the top of the page. TLDR: The idea comes from an architecure book, A Pattern Language, about recurring motifs, design elements, etc., in architecture which seemed worth recognizing, naming, and talking about. A couple decades later a famous book applied the idea to software. This Hackerspaces wiki page is attempting to collect similar observations about things that work well when creating or running a hackerspace. - Wiml (talk) 09:23, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
