Also known as: Kit
Intent: Provide an interface for creating families of related or dependent objects without specifying their concrete classes.
Applicability: Use the Abstract Factory pattern when
- a system should be independent of how its products are created, composed and represented
- a system should be configured with one of multiple families of products
- a family of related product objects is designed to be used together, and you need to enforce this constraint
- you want to provide a class library of products, and you want to reveal just their interfaces, not their implementations
