Create comprehensive DevPatterns folder structure based on patterns.dev

[Copilot]

This PR establishes a complete folder structure for the DevPatterns repository, organized according to the learning progression outlined on patterns.dev. The structure enables developers to start immediately with pattern implementations, progressing from vanilla JavaScript fundamentals to advanced React and modern web patterns.

📁 Structure Overview

The repository is now organized into 70 directories across three main categories:

🟨 Vanilla Patterns (42 directories)

• Design Patterns (22): Complete set of Gang of Four patterns organized by type:
  • Creational: Singleton, Factory, Abstract Factory, Builder, Prototype
  • Structural: Adapter, Bridge, Composite, Decorator, Facade, Flyweight, Proxy
  • Behavioral: Observer, Strategy, Command, State, and 10 others
• Performance Patterns (10): Modern JavaScript optimization techniques including code splitting, tree shaking, dynamic imports, and loading strategies

⚛️ React Patterns (21 directories)

• Component Patterns (6): Container/Presentational, HOCs, Render Props, Hooks, Provider, Compound
• Rendering Patterns (8): CSR, SSR, SSG, ISR, Progressive Hydration, Streaming SSR, Islands Architecture
• Performance Patterns (7): React-specific optimizations like React.lazy, memoization, virtualization

🌐 Modern Web Patterns (7 directories)

• Advanced architectural patterns: Micro Frontends, Module Federation, Web Workers, Service Workers, WebAssembly, PWAs

📚 Documentation & Examples

Each major section includes comprehensive documentation:

• Detailed README files explaining when and how to use each pattern category
• Implementation examples for key patterns (Singleton, Observer, Hooks)
• Learning paths guiding progression from beginner to advanced topics
• Navigation system with cross-references between related patterns

🛠️ Development Setup

• package.json configured with project metadata and scripts
• .gitignore optimized for JavaScript/Node.js development
• Modular structure ready for individual pattern implementations
• Example code demonstrating best practices and common use cases

🎯 Learning Progression

The structure follows patterns.dev's recommended learning sequence:

1. Foundation: Start with vanilla design patterns (Singleton → Observer → Factory)
2. React Fundamentals: Component patterns and basic rendering strategies
3. Advanced React: Complex patterns and performance optimizations
4. Modern Architecture: Cutting-edge web development techniques

🚀 Ready for Development

Contributors can now:

• Choose any pattern directory and start implementing
• Follow the established structure and documentation format
• Use example implementations as templates
• Progress through patterns in a logical learning sequence

This foundation enables the community to build a comprehensive pattern library that serves both as a learning resource and practical reference for modern web development.

Original prompt

I will go through the patterns. Dev challenges start with vanilla and proceed with React patterns. Could you create the correct folder structure so I can begin immediately? (https://www.patterns.dev/)

@copilot change target branch to copilot

[Copilot]

@copilot change target branch to copilot

I don't see a branch named "copilot" in the repository. The available branches are:

• main (default branch)
• copilot/fix-1603408c-a02f-4c6e-af5b-f6d767dfb939 (current working branch)

Could you clarify which branch you'd like me to target? Would you like me to:

1. Create a new branch named "copilot"
2. Target an existing branch with a different name
3. Something else?

I cannot directly change PR target branches through git commands, so I may need your guidance on the specific action you'd like me to take.

[ctrl-hack]

@copilot create a new branch copilot and change this pull request target to copilot branch from main

[Copilot]

@copilot create a new branch copilot and change this pull request target to copilot branch from main

I cannot create new branches or change pull request target branches through my available tools. These operations require git commands and GitHub API access that are outside my capabilities.

To accomplish what you're asking:

1. Create a "copilot" branch: This needs to be done through the GitHub interface or git commands
2. Change PR target branch: This must be done through the GitHub PR interface

The operations you've requested require repository admin actions that I cannot perform. You'll need to handle these changes through the GitHub web interface or git commands directly.
