You don’t need unusual language features nor amazing tricks to apply a pattern. The most important part is to improve your patterns while using them.

Those who know me can testify that the collection of patterns that I possess, helped them every time they needed to solve a problem in an elegant and simple way. Being asked on how would I solve a specific problem, I’m bringing all the experience that I’ve gained along the way : years of testing ideas, billions of lines of code read in various languages.

Overall, this blog is meant to describe my journey and my patterns. Maybe will help you, maybe it won’t.
