This intermediate course path begins by reinforcing core object-oriented programming concepts in Python, including classes, inheritance, polymorphism, and encapsulation. These foundations prepare you to recognize common software design problems and select appropriate patterns.
You will explore creational patterns such as Factory Method and Builder, structural patterns such as Adapter and Decorator, and behavioral patterns such as Command, Observer, and Strategy. Practical scenarios include GUI libraries, file systems, chat applications, parking systems, and home automation.
You will apply these concepts to develop a smart home system in Python. The path is intended for Python developers who want to create more flexible, reusable, and maintainable object-oriented software.
