Key Design Patterns

Event-Driven Architecture

Functions triggered by user actions and system events

button.addEventListener('click', handler)

Observer Pattern

Firebase auth state changes trigger automatic UI updates

onAuthStateChanged(callback)

Repository Pattern

Abstracted data access through Firestore operations

db.collection('notes')

Singleton Pattern

Single Firebase instance and centralized state management

const auth = firebase.auth()
