What you’ll learn:
• How to stop recreating the same “heavy” objects on every request (SVG paths/templates/configs)• Flyweight split: intrinsic (shared) = icon type + SVG path, extrinsic (per request) = color + size• One endpoint, many variants: GET

/api/icons?type=CART&color=%23ff0000&size=32• Flyweight Factory + ConcurrentHashMap cache to guarantee “one instance per icon type”• Verify caching: Use /api/icons/cache-size to see how many icon types are cached (e.g., 3 types → 3 flyweights)For more details, check out the Medium link below — this article walks through the whole implementation step by step.
