-
Reason about applicability and usability of design patterns
Course Overview
This course provides a comprehensive overview of Design Patterns in C# and .NET from a practical perspective. This course in particular covers patterns with the use of:
- The latest versions of C# and the .NET framework
- Use of modern programming approaches: dependency injection, reactive programming and more
- Use of modern developer tools such as ReSharper
- Discussions of pattern variations and alternative approaches
This course provides an overview of all the Gang of Four (GoF) design patterns as outlined in their seminal book, together with modern-day variations, adjustments, discussions of intrinsic use of patterns in the language.
What are Design Patterns?
Design Patterns are reusable solutions to common programming problems. They were popularized with the 1994 book Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software by Erich Gamma, John Vlissides, Ralph Johnson and Richard Helm (who are commonly known as a Gang of Four, hence the GoF acronym).
The original book was written using C++ and Smalltalk as examples, but since then, design patterns have been adapted to every programming language imaginable: C#, Java, PHP and even programming languages that aren’t strictly object-oriented, such as JavaScript.
The appeal of design patterns is immortal: we see them in libraries, some of them are intrinsic in programming languages, and you probably use them on a daily basis even if you don’t realize they are there.
What Patterns Does This Course Cover?
This course covers all the GoF design patterns. In fact, here’s the full list of what is covered:
- SOLID Design Principles: Single Responsibility Principle, Open-Closed Principle, Liskov Substitution Principle, Interface Segregation Principle and Dependency Inversion Principle
- Creational Design Patterns: Builder, Factories (Factory Method and Abstract Factory), Prototype and Singleton
- Structrural Design Patterns: Adapter, Bridge, Composite, Decorator, Façade, Flyweight and Proxy
- Behavioral Design Patterns: Chain of Responsibility, Command, Interpreter, Iterator, Mediator, Memento, Null Object, Observer, State, Strategy, Template Method and Visitor
Who Is the Course For?
This course is for .NET/C# developers who want to see not just textbook examples of design patterns, but also the different variations and tricks that can be applied to implement design patterns in a modern way. For example, the introduction of the DLR allows us to use an ImpromptuObject, so that our DynamicObject exposes any interface we desire. This allows for dynamic programming, and many design patterns are presented in terms of their static and DLR-based variations.
Presentation Style
This course is presented as a (very large) series of live demonstrations being done in Microsoft Visual Studio. Most demos are single-file, so you can download the file attached to the lesson and run it in Visual Studio, Visual Studio Code, Rider or another IDE of your choice.
This course does not use UML class diagrams; all of demos are live coding. I use Visual Studio, various NuGet packages, R# unit test runner and even dotMemoryUnit.
Who this course is for:
- Beginner and experienced developers
- Anyone interested in design patterns

Nicely explained and very detailed course. I really appreciate the effort of the teacher.
Though expecting more concrete details in the exercise descriptions (handful of them missing test cases), sometimes it was confusing what is the correct solution.
Bill Bailey –
Very nice course. Very informative. The instructor clearly has a wealth of knowledge on the topics presented. I don’t often find myself impressed by online courses, but this one is excellent. I learned a lot of very useful techniques. Well done.
Beni Reydman –
My only quirk was in the course description “Who this course is for” has keywords ‘beginner ‘and ‘anyone’ which I believe is far from the truth. Dmitri is a phenomenal programmer, but I believe he forgot what beginner really means because he is so good. Otherwise this course is great for individuals who are experienced C# developers.
Francesco Ariazzi –
This course is Excellent to get a deeper understanding Design Patterns and also get a deeper knowledge of C#.
Super detailed and with exercises that lets you really get into the subject.
Li Qian –
This is a really great tutorial! However on the last section, I would prefer a lecture about using functional programming patterns in C#.
Baufest Udemy Software –
Fue una buena elección, esta bien explicados los distintos patrones y con su ejemplo en cada caso. Lo recomiendo.
Michael Kroupa –
Sehr cooler Kurs, zusätzlich zu Pattern gibts auch noch viele andere kleine Feinheiten, die einem das Leben als Programmierer erleichtern.
Der Tutor wirkt auch als hat er Ahnung von seiner Matiere! Mein erster Kurs den ich bei ihm gekauft hab, aber wahrscheinlich nicht der Letzte 🙂
Patricio Pastrana –
The course is good although some exercises are not very clear (e.g Composite unit). Also some given examples are extreme, things that are not useful in real life scenarios.
Sandeep Gupta –
Some of the examples used are difficult to understand. For example, vector used in Adapter pattern is not easy to understand in one-shot. So you’re actually lost in the implementation rather than the pattern core concept. Also, the instructor is too fast so you’ve to actually rewind multiple times.
Christian Ruh –
Dmitri is awesome. This guy speaks fast, but gives very clear instructions. So I can follow along very well. With any code example I learn not only the design pattern, but lots of interesting and new ways of coding as well. Dmitri is for sure a master at C#. I am an intermediate programmer and this course is actually to much for my understanding. But I give my best and do each example step by step. I’m sure I will become a very good programmer, thanks of these design patterns code examples. Thanks a lot Dmitri. Great job.
Fredrik Strid –
Very good course with nice content that I have found use for in my profession. What makes it miss the mark of 5 stars is that instructor goes super fast with a lot of automatic code generation in quite complex examples which makes it hard to both follow and understand at times.
José Juan Pardo Caballero –
Very complete course, more than expected. With many code samples. I don’t find the last section interesting with F #
