Detailed JavaScript Design Patterns Interview
Handbook
Introduction
This handbook covers JavaScript fundamentals, SOLID principles, and the most important design
patterns used in interviews and production systems.
OOP in JavaScript
Understand objects, classes, prototypes, encapsulation, inheritance, composition, and
polymorphism before learning patterns.
SOLID Principles
Single Responsibility, Open/Closed, Liskov Substitution, Interface Segregation, and Dependency
Inversion.
Singleton
Definition: Detailed explanation of the Singleton pattern.
Problem Solved: Why Singleton exists and the design issues it addresses.
Real-world Usage: Practical [Link] and frontend examples.
Advantages: Improved maintainability, extensibility, and testability where applicable.
Disadvantages: Trade-offs and common misuse scenarios.
Interview Tips: Focus on when to use the pattern and when not to use it.

// Example implementation of Singleton
class Example {
constructor() {}
}
