6. Flyweight:
The Flyweight pattern minimizes memory usage or computational expenses by sharing as much as possible with related objects.

Example in ReactJS:

Suppose you're rendering a large list of items with some common properties.

// Flyweight Component
const ListItem = ({ text }) => <li>{text}</li>;

// Usage
const App = () => {
  const commonText = "This is a common text shared by multiple items.";

  const items = Array.from({ length: 1000 }, (_, index) => (
    <ListItem key={index} text={commonText} />
  ));

  return (
    <ul>
      {items}
    </ul>
  );
};

When to use flyweight design pattern

Comment

We can use flyweight pattern in following scenarios:

When we need a large number of similar objects that are unique in terms of only a few parameters and most of the stuffs are common in general.
We need to control the memory consumption by large number of objects – by creating fewer objects and sharing them across.

Flyweight Design Pattern

Comment

 flyweight design pattern enables use sharing of objects to support large numbers of fine-grained objects efficiently. 
 A flyweight is a shared object that can be used in multiple contexts simultaneously. 
 The flyweight acts as an independent object in each context.
