Facade Pattern - Design Patterns in JavaScript

The facade pattern is analogous to a facade in architecture, it is pretty on the outside and hides the underlying complexity

The facade pattern helps mask the complexity of underlying code, provides a single interface to a set of interfaces, and can help make complex code more context-specific.

Why not use a facade pattern? Facades can become "God objects" that are too complex to use.

Examples of a facade pattern
* Backend for frontend (BFF) layer - Join multiple services together to server a UI
* An external-facing API - Make a complex internal API more user-friendly with a facade

I abslutely loved using Proxy facade (for a hobby project), there is some caching going on, important informational properties being recorded, data accessed and decoded. Doing it through a Proxy with seemingly few and simple methods exposed is a saving grace for actually using what I made.

I don't understand though why you would use an ifee here.

Very nice explanation. Proxy pattern next, maybe.
