📚 Looking to learn design patterns in Python? Explore our docs and lessons to study and apply design patterns through clear, hands-on examples — perfect for self-paced learning or AI-assisted coding!
This repository helps you:
- Learn software design patterns in Python with clean, structured examples.
- Use those lessons with LLMs like ChatGPT, Open WebUI, or Ollama for Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) coding workflows.
- Leverage preprocessed pattern chunks and a searchable index to integrate design knowledge directly into AI tooling.
Visit our website or the docs/ directory to find:
- Lesson plans and code walkthroughs for each pattern.
- Example-driven explanations optimized for learning and memory.
- Markdown-formatted versions ideal for study or RAG ingestion.
If you want to integrate pattern knowledge into AI tools:
- Use the
chunks/directory: preprocessed, docstring-enhanced Markdown files. - Reference
summary_index.json: a machine-readable index with metadata and summaries.
These resources are ready to drop into Open WebUI, Ollama, or any system that supports knowledge base ingestion.
- Open the "Knowledge" tab in WebUI.
- Create a new base using the
chunks/folder.
Use your RAG-enabled system to ask:
How do I implement the Builder pattern in Python?
What's the difference between Singleton and Borg?
Show me a working example of the Strategy pattern.
Use summary_index.json to:
- Power UI navigation
- Search by pattern
- Generate dynamic summaries
