Introduction

As software applications grow in size and complexity, managing object creation becomes challenging. Creating objects directly using constructors can result in tightly coupled code that is difficult to maintain and extend. The Factory Method Design Pattern solves this problem by separating object creation from object usage. It provides a flexible and reusable approach for creating objects, making applications easier to modify and scale.

What is the Factory Method Design Pattern?

The Factory Method Design Pattern is a Creational Design Pattern that provides an interface for creating objects without specifying their exact classes. Instead of directly instantiating objects using the new keyword, a factory class creates and returns the required object.
