## What it is
A collection of Rust examples covering all 23 classic GoF design patterns, with conceptual and real-world implementations that follow idiomatic Rust practices. It is part of the Refactoring.Guru project and each example runs via cargo with accompanying README explanations.

## Use cases
- learn design patterns in rust
- see how to implement singleton in rust
- rust examples of gof patterns
- study behavioral patterns with rust ownership
- find idiomatic rust alternatives to classic oop patterns
- teach design patterns with runnable code

## When to choose
- you want runnable, idiomatic Rust examples of all 23 GoF patterns
- you are learning Rust and already know classic OOP design patterns
- you need reference implementations for creational, structural, and behavioral patterns

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready pattern library to depend on
- you want patterns in a language other than Rust
- you need comprehensive software architecture guidance beyond design patterns

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools
- domain: programming-languages, tutorials
- platform: rust, cli, cross-platform
- tags: design-patterns, gof-patterns, rust-examples, educational, refactoring-guru, algorithms
