GoF Patterns
Gang of Four Patterns
Concrete Products (Windows & Mac):?
Short answer: WindowsButton, MacButton, WindowsCheckbox, and MacCheckbox are concrete implementations of the IButton and ICheckbox interfaces. Each one provides a platform-specific rendering logic. public class WindowsButton : IButton
Example code
{
public void Render() => Console.WriteLine("Rendering Windows Button."); }
public class MacButton : IButton
{
public void Render() => Console.WriteLine("Rendering Mac Button."); }
public class WindowsCheckbox : ICheckbox
{
public void Render() => Console.WriteLine("Rendering Windows Checkbox."); }
public class MacCheckbox : ICheckbox
{
public void Render() => Console.WriteLine("Rendering Mac Checkbox."); }
Real-world example (ShopNest)
Use a GoF pattern in ShopNest only when it removes duplication or makes a change safer—explain the problem it solves in the interview.
Say this in the interview
- Define — one clear sentence (the short answer above).
- Example — relate it to a project like ShopNest or your real work.
- Trade-off — when you would not use it.
