This intermediate path explores how object-oriented programming and design patterns support flexible, reusable, and maintainable Scala 3 applications. You will revisit classes, objects, inheritance, polymorphism, and encapsulation before working with common pattern categories.
You will examine creational patterns for object construction, structural patterns for component composition, and behavioral patterns for communication and responsibility management. Along the way, you will select and apply patterns to solve practical software design problems.
The path culminates in the development of a smart home system that combines multiple patterns. It is intended for learners with foundational Scala experience who want to improve their object-oriented design and software architecture skills.
