Creational Design Patterns

Deals with how classes are created.

Builder Pattern

A way of creating complex objects on a step-by-step basis. The constructor will not take all the available attributes. Instead, the object creation logic is moved to a Builder class.

CarBuilder carBuilder = new CarBuilder();
carBuilder.brand("Ford").color("red");
Car mine = carBuilder.build();

Director

Defines the order in which the constructor calls should be called. Optional.

Factory Pattern

Abstract Factory Pattern
