What problem does it solve?

Go developers often struggle to apply time-tested design patterns in a way that fits the language's idioms, leading to brittle architectures and hard-to-test code. This skill provides a comprehensive, example-driven guide for applying GoF patterns, concurrency patterns, anti-patterns, and advanced patterns (DDD, CQRS, Event Sourcing) in Go.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Idiomatic Go pattern implementations across Creational, Structural, Behavioral, and Concurrency patterns.
• Pattern selection guidance, clean architecture alignment, and dependency-injection/testing best practices.
• Anti-pattern awareness with refactoring strategies to improve maintainability and safety.
• Testing strategies and TDD-oriented approaches for validating pattern usage.

Quick Start

Identify a real development problem and map it to an appropriate Go design pattern, then implement a small idiomatic example.
