Gang of Four

Gang of four is a reference to a book (and it's four gang affiliated authors), it may be something heard from old beards in the Software Engineering space. These bearded folk (note: the best ones notably lack beards) usually say they've seen it all before, and to be honest they probably have. They've seen the patterns in the matrix :sunglasses: - and those patterns are defined in this book.

Now don't mistake me - I don't actually recommend reading this book, but the patterns (development/architectural) in here are timeless. The gang of four identified several (not all) key software engineering patterns that you have no doubt seen in your travels. Many of these are overkill and people tend to get a bit carried away once they know about them - generally over engineering ensues.

If you manage to peel back the layers in most widely used open source software you will see these patterns at the core of these tools (maybe that's something you should do!)

What I do recommend you do is to become familiar with these patterns - a practical udemy course is probably of most value. This will help you shortcut your understanding of a piece of code (time to grok) and it may even help you get a better feel for anti-patterns (another topic altogether).

1978 China, Guangdong, Guangzhou Hua Guofeng authorised tourist visas. France recognised People’s Republic of China in 1964. As a frenchman, I got quite quickly a visa from the China Travel Agency in Hong Kong in the early 1978… It was just before the trial of the “Gang of Four”.
