Factory Pattern Guide


The Factory Pattern simplifies object creation by centralizing logic, promoting flexibility, scalability, and cleaner code in software design.

Factory Pattern Deep Dive

The Factory Pattern is a creational design pattern that provides an interface for creating objects without specifying their exact classes. It encapsulates object creation logic and promotes loose coupling.

What Problem Does It Solve?

  • Eliminates tight coupling between client code and concrete classes
  • Centralizes object creation logic for easier maintenance
  • Makes code more flexible and extensible
  • Supports the Open-Closed Principle

Three Main Variants

Simple Factory

Static method creates objects based on parameters

Factory Method

Subclasses decide which objects to create

Abstract Factory

Creates families of related objects
