Code smarter with Design Patterns

Just finished updating the Code Smarter with Design Patterns for Developmentor

The course traditionally has focused on GoF design patterns, in this release I have added MVC and Repository pattern, to round off the offering.

Both these patterns build upon the GoF patterns discussed earlier in the course, and show how the basic GoF patterns are often compounded to produce elegant solutions.

Other enhancements include addition of Prototype and Builder patterns, and a general upgrade to the latest features offered by the .NET framework.
