Finally, we are actively developing RALE Modules (Readily Available Learning Experiences), a process management system which highlights and annotates design patterns and architectures (i.e. MVC, Mixins) in professional python codebases, and generates a series of diagrams and activities that help intermediate developers understand how and why particular patterns are applied in particular professional use cases."
