Structural Design Patterns in Modern C++ - Console Facade for Linux

The video tutorial explains the facade pattern and its role in reducing coupling between applications and operating system APIs. It demonstrates how to port an application to Linux using ANSI color codes instead of OS-specific APIs. The tutorial also covers implementing these codes in a console class, compiling, and running the code on different platforms. Finally, it discusses advanced usage of the facade pattern with inheritance to further reduce coupling.
