Introduction

The following chapter is going to present popular, general-purpose design patterns applicable to a range of programming problems. The following recipes focus on exploiting Kotlin's built-in language support for implementing specific concepts and patterns. Apart from basic design patterns, such as Strategy or Builder, the chapter will focus on different usages of Delegation in a diverse set of applications and scenarios. Once you get familiar with the concepts presented in this chapter, you will be able to utilize the language's built-in features while designing and developing elegant and reliable systems.
