The Dark Side of Design Patterns: What They Don't Tell You
Details
On Thursday, March 20, 2025, we will meet at the Slingshot offices at 700 N Hurstbourne Pkwy. Doors will open at 6:00 pm, and the presentations will begin sharply at 6:30 pm. Along with an excellent presentation, we'll have food. Be sure to RSVP so we know how much food is needed. Afterward, we will go somewhere for drinks and food to continue the conversation (location to be determined).
The session will also be broadcast at https://twitch.tv/TaleLearnCode and https://youtu.be/TaleLearnCode.
# The Dark Side of Design Patterns: What They Don't Tell You
Design patterns are potent tools in software development that solve recurring problems and are essential for creating maintainable, scalable, and robust systems. However, not all design patterns are created equal. Some well-respected patterns may inadvertently lead to increased complexity, decreased maintainability, and hinder productivity.
Join us as we explore specific design patterns that can cause more work than they are worth. Through real-world scenarios, we will uncover how these patterns can lead to unintended consequences such as convoluted code, performance bottlenecks, and intricate debugging sessions.
