Design Patterns VS build-your-own-x

After that, more practice, and then Design Patterns (as in the famous book of the "Gang of Four": "Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object Oriented Software"). Here I'd recommend "Head First: Design Patterns" and Java Design Patterns as well as Refactoring Guru (the sites are more reference than course).

For Design Patterns - any resource recommendation that misses Java Design Patterns and Refactoring Guru (also for Refactoring) as well as *Head First: Design Patterns, has failed.

A massive list of design patterns and how they could be implemented (in Java) can be found here.

https://java-design-patterns.com/ has example code for things like object pools that can help with memory management.

Sidenote: I would not really use the GoF Design Patterns book anymore. Too dry. I would use "Head First: Design Patterns" - much more modern, much easier to read, or Refactoring Guru or Java Design Patterns (uses Java, but again, only for illustrations).

Also: https://java-design-patterns.com and https://refactoring.guru/design-patterns

Use either Java Design Patterns or Refactoring Guru. Both resources are far higher quality than yours.

Java Design Patterns

Java Design Patterns - IMO one of the most accessible sites with very easy explanations

A hint: go to Java Design Patterns and go through the patterns to figure what could fit.

All suggestions are welcome,thanks in advance

Make sure that apart from learning you're using the knowledge to create something either your own idea or maybe something from https://github.com/danistefanovic/build-your-own-x (with your own twist if possible.). It helps a lot to be working on something separately and seeing the results of your new knowledge outside of a tutorial scenario.

28. Build your own X

Do some projects. Come up with your own ideas or pick something from a list like https://github.com/danistefanovic/build-your-own-x

ello! i'm 20f and humanities student (ir/poli sci) with interest in coding since high school, but just now i have the time to start learning it. i opted for learning pyhton first mostly because i'm interested in automation, data analysis, plus was skimming over the tutorials of build your own x and was surprised that you can do a lot of things with just pyhton.

As for exercises there are plenty of programming task websites out there, most of them are quite boring but you can use a fun one like https://adventofcode.com/ . However the best things to work on are things you actually like so do some small projects. Games (start with command line stuff like hang-man) are common, otherwise pick something from https://github.com/danistefanovic/build-your-own-x or whatever else ideas come to your mind.
