Chapter 2: Working with Creational Patterns
In this chapter, we'll cover how classic creational patterns are implemented using Kotlin. These patterns deal with how and when you create your objects. For each design pattern, we will discuss what it aims to achieve and how Kotlin accommodates those needs.
We will cover the following topics in this chapter:
- Singleton
- Factory Method
- Abstract Factory
- Builder
- Prototype
Mastering these design patterns will allow you to manage your objects better, adapt well to changes, and write code that is easy to maintain.
