    I’d say most of the GoF patterns evolved in a C++ toolchain (and then the Java junior devs started a cargo cult around them that has survived to this day). The book was never as language-independent as the authors envisioned it to be—in fact I’d argue that with the right programming language design the patterns happen implicitly or are obsolete.
