What problem does it solve?

This skill helps PHP developers structure applications using classic design patterns to improve maintainability, testability, and scalability.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Repository Pattern: Abstracts data access and decouples storage from business logic.
• Service Layer Pattern: Orchestrates business workflows and enforces separation of concerns.
• Factory, Strategy, Observer, Decorator, Adapter, and Specification: Provide flexible object creation, interchangeable algorithms, event-driven behavior, and composable business rules.
• Use Case: Apply to enterprise PHP apps (e.g., Laravel) to organize modules, reduce coupling, and enable easier testing.

Quick Start

Implement the patterns in a PHP project by following the examples to structure repositories, services, factories, strategies, and specifications.
